I have just started using CodeIgniter for my PHP application. I need some help regarding database creation. Instead of creating database manually is it possible that when CI application in installed on any server then after starting the apache server, my application should execute some db script file to create DB structure if the DB is empty otherwise skip the DB creation. So every time when the apache server is started or restarted, my CI application should execute this script and check whether the database structure is up to date or not and create it if does not exist or not up to date.

This way I want to make sure that after first install or everytime the application runs the DB is created and ready to use.

Hope I have explained my requirement clearly. Please let me know if any kind of configuration will help me here.

  • Thanks Jogesh. That is one of the options. I want to avoid this kind of approach as everytime when the server is restarted my script will be executed which I do not want though I can handle it in the script. I am trying some other solutions. I will update once I am sure those are correct approaches. – Shashikant Kulkarni Oct 29 '14 at 03:49
