% Installing on a host machine
- ***Host installations are not supported starting 2021. Consider using [Docker](InstallationNotes) when planning new tt-rss installations.***
- *This document is considered deprecated. Information here may be obsolete and/or inaccurate.*
------
Before you begin, you’ll need the following:
- Access to shared hosting or a dedicated server running a http server (preferably with SSL)
- PHP, at least version 7.1, with several dependencies (I suggest checking `.docker/app/Dockerfile` for the list)
- A database (PostgreSQL or MySQL/MariaDB) server credentials (login, password, hostname)
- Basic knowledge of Git, which should be available on your server/hosting
#### Host installation overview
Clone tt-rss repository using Git. Always use latest Git code from master branch.
```
git clone https://git.tt-rss.org/fox/tt-rss.git tt-rss
```
Alternatively, you can clone the repository on your local machine and upload files using FTP/rsync or any other means available to
you.
Deal with [global configuration](GlobalConfig) in `config.php`:
- Copy `config.php-dist` to `config.php`
- Define mandatory global settings below and any other you need changed. This is the absolute minimum required to be set (for PostgreSQL):
```sh
putenv('TTRSS_DB_HOST=dbhost');
putenv('TTRSS_DB_NAME=dbname');
putenv('TTRSS_DB_USER=dbuser');
putenv('TTRSS_DB_PASS=dbpassword');
putenv('TTRSS_SELF_URL_PATH=https://example.com/tt-rss');
```
In case of MySQL/MariaDB, add the following:
```sh
putenv('TTRSS_DB_TYPE=mysql');
putenv('TTRSS_DB_PORT=3306');
```
Then, install base database schema. In tt-rss directory, run the following:
```
php ./update.php --update-schema
```
Open your tt-rss installation and login with default credentials (username: <code>admin</code>, password: <code>password</code>).
**Don't forget to change the password!**
Configure feed updates. This is a separate topic, explained in [UpdatingFeeds](UpdatingFeeds) wiki page. Please read it, otherwise your feeds won't get updated.
If all went well, proceed to use tt-rss normally. Create a separate non-admin user, login under it, and start importing your feeds,
subscribing, etc.

#### Take a look at available plugins
There are many plugins written for tt-rss. You can see the list here: [Plugins](Plugins).
-----
## Upgrading Tiny Tiny RSS
- Change to tt-rss directory on your server and run ``git pull origin master``
- Update the database via CLI: `php ./update.php --update-schema` or open tt-rss in the web browser (you will be redirected to the database updater if needed
#### Optional post-upgrade tasks
- You might need to clear your browser cache if you experience CSS or script-related issues
- Log in in safe mode if there are any plugin or theme-related issues after upgrade
- If you are using an accelerator like php-apc you might need to restart apache if older cached versions of PHP files got stuck in the (misconfigured) cache.
