= Distance Finder = PHP script allowing users to find the air distance between cities. Uses information from Google if data not found in local database. == License == Distance Finder by Klaus-Uwe Mitterer is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License. To view a copy of this license, visit http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/. Permissions beyond the scope of this license may be available at info@klaus-uwe.me. == Installation == Change the following settings in bootstrap.php: DB_HOST = The host on which your MySQL database is running. Usually localhost. DB_NAME = The name of your MySQL database. DB_USER = The user name for your MySQL database. DB_PASSWORD = The corresponding password. CSVFILE = The file you want to import to the database. Has to be in the following format: City name, Country code, State code, Population, Latitude, Longitude. Can be an empty file. Make sure this file exists in the same folder as the install.php Then go to http://yoursite.com/[subdirectory]/install.php and follow the instructions. Depending on the size of the CSV file you are importing into the database, this might take a while. When the installation has finished, you might want to remove or rename install.php. == Troubleshooting == If you keep getting empty files when trying to download the distance list, make sure that the web server has permissions to write in the folder (e.g. chown www-data:www-data)
