Car pooling at your doorstep.

To build the application on your local server make sure you have apache installed and your mysql server is up and running.

• Take the car-pool/ directory in your webapps folder.
• Make sure the permissions are set. Use chmod -R 775 car-pool
• Access http://localhost:80/car-pool/initialise.php. This will make sure the database is initialised. This is to be done only once! :)
• To start playing with car-pool access http://localhost:80/car-pool/index.php

It will redirect you to a login page from where you can register. Once you have successfully registered, login again and explore the world of car-pool.

For those who are still wondering what is the hype with carpooling, well for a first it is definitely not car pulling! :( As wikipedia states it: Carpooling is the sharing of car journeys so that more than one person travels in a car.
