Goto your_directory/flinkiso/app/Config/Core.php
Find "date_default_timezone_set("Asia/Calcutta");" and replace "Asia/Calcutta" to your timezone.

Goto your_directory/flinkiso/app/Config/Database.php
Update database configuration with your details :
public $default = array(      "datasource" => "Database/Mysql",      "persistent" => false,      "host" => "localhost",      "login" => "add your username",      "password" => "*********",      "database" => "flinkiso",      "prefix" => "",      "encoding" => "utf8", );

Step 3 : Install Database

See Documentation for more details.

Step 4 : Update Email SMTP Configuration

Goto your_directory/flinkiso/app/Config/Email.php
Update class EmailConfig { } with your email's SMTP credentials. Provide values for all three options vis: $default, $smtp & $fast.


class EmailConfig {   public $default = array(     "transport" => "Mail",     "from" => array("noreply@flinkiso.com" => "FlinkISO"),     //"charset" => "utf-8",     //"headerCharset" => "utf-8", );   public $smtp = array(     "transport" => "Smtp",     "from" => array("your_email@your_domain.com" => "FlinkISO"),     "host" => "your_host",     "port" => 465,     "timeout" => 30,     "username" => "username",     "password" => "********",     "client" => null,     "log" => false, );   public $fast = array(   "from" => "your_email@your_domain",     "sender" => null,     "to" => null,     "cc" => null,     "bcc" => null,     "replyTo" => null,     "readReceipt" => null,     "returnPath" => null,     "messageId" => true,     "subject" => null,     "message" => null,     "headers" => null,     "viewRender" => null,     "template" => false,     "layout" => false,     "viewVars" => null,     "attachments" => null,     "emailFormat" => null,     "transport" => "Smtp",     "host" => "your_host",     "port" => 465,     "timeout" => 30,     "username" => "username",     "password" => "********",     "client" => null,     "log" => true,     //"charset" => "utf-8",     //"headerCharset" => "utf-8", );

Step 5 : Directory Permissions
