We, the team that brought you https://isohunt.to and http://oldpiratebay.org are bringing you the next step in torrent evolution. The Pirate Bay source code.
Torrent sites like Isohunt and The Pirate Bay gave us lessons that would be a crime to ignore. Individual torrent sites are easy targets. Pirate Bay open source code will give absolutely anyone with minimal knowledge of how internet and websites work and some server basic equipment, opportunity to create Pirate Bay copy on his own domain.
Step 1. Download source.
Download the latest engine version at openbay.isohunt.to or at GitHub project web page.
Step 2. Upload source to chosen hosting.
Upload the source code to desirable web hosting following the web hosting guide (in common case there is a CPanel tool) or just use FTP
Step 3. Unzip source to hosting folder (optional)
This step is quite optional. It depends on your web hosting. Some hostings can unzip sources automatically some of them allows you to make it manually.
Step 4. Set hosting environment (optional)
Apache
This option is available by default in original source pack. You can see it at conf/example.htaccess
Nginx
This config is available in original source pack at /conf/example.nginx.conf
Sphinx (advanced mode)
MySQL (advanced mode)
Before the wizard will run you need to create a data base, the schema of the data base will be created by the wizard. Dump here /src/protected/data/schema.mysql.sql
