Installation Wizard
Bible Family Tree
PHP 8.3.33 · Laravel 12.58.0

Welcome to the Bible Family Tree installer

This wizard will configure your environment, database, mail, run migrations and seeders, and create an administrator account. Each step is optional unless it's required to start the app (database, app key). You can revisit any step from the sidebar.

.env file
Found — values will be updated in place.
App key
A new APP_KEY will be generated if missing.
Databases supported
SQLite · MySQL/MariaDB · PostgreSQL · SQL Server
Hostinger / shared hosts
Pre-create the DB in cPanel — the username is usually prefixed (e.g. u123_yourdb).
Already configured everything yourself?

Skip the wizard if your .env, database, migrations, and seeders are already in place. This just writes the installer lock file.

Before you do this, verify on the server that:
  • .env exists with a valid APP_KEY and database credentials
  • php artisan migrate has been run and the schema is in place
  • An administrator user exists and can log in
Once locked, the wizard stops intercepting requests. Run php artisan installer:reset to unlock.
