  • SOLVED Installing Rocket Launcher on a Site That Already Has Joomla!

    Posted 9 years 9 months ago
    • Hi there,
      I'm a bit of a novice. Will installing Rocket Launcher (which comes with Joomla!) on site that has Joomla! already installed on it destroy my current site databases?

      Thanks in advance.

    • You can't install a rocketlauncher on an existing joomla installation.

      For Joomla 2.5 we offer 3 installation packages:

      1. RocketLauncher which contains the latest Joomla core installation, the template itself and the Gantry framework which is like the Control Panel for the template and a mix of Rockettheme extensions.
      This package needs an empty folder on your server and you will get your Joomla core installed, the Gantry framework and the template. During installation choosing to install "Sample Data" will make the installed site look like the demo. However, our newer templates will install this automatically for you.

      2. Bundle which is the Gantry framework and the template itself.
      This package is used when there is a previous Joomla installation with a non-Rockettheme template installed. After installation you have the required the Gantry framework and the template. No "Sample Data" is offered as your Database already contains site content information. There are no extensions offered with this package since they have to be installed in folders outside of the Rockettheme template folder.

      3. Template Standalone which is the template itself.
      This package is used when there is a previous Joomla installation with a Rockettheme template installed. Since Gantry would have been previously installed, it's only required to install the template (although upgrading to the latest Gantry is highly recommended). Again no "Sample Data" is offered as your Database already contains site content information and the same situation for extensions as the "Bundle".

      Regards, Mark.
