you can upload it anywhere in your server but it's better to don't upload it to a web accessible directory like your webroot

and you can assign framework path in Entry Script (index.php)

sorry, but you didn't get me!!!
read it carefully please

I think Reza's answer is correct. See also this wiki for more informations.

• Server
  • yii (shouldn't be accessible via web) => can/should be a symlink
    • framework
      • yii.php
  • user 1
    • public_html (e.g. DocumentRoot of user 1) => Yii App 1
      • index.php with path to framework: ../../yii/framework/yii.php
      • protected
      • ...
  • user 2
    • public_html (e.g. DocumentRoot of user 2) => Yii App 2
      • index.php with path to framework: ../../yii/framework/yii.php
      • protected
      • ...
  • ...

If your system (server) looks different please describe...

thank you for your explain , but where i should upload framework?
now i am uploading for each user in behind his public_html.
i made PS and attach it for you, this is my server root's capture

Attached File(s)

•  server root.jpg (168.1K)
  Number of downloads: 10

You can upload the framework anywhere, as long as it's accessible to the user accounts.

index.php in root of app, and yiic.php in protected needs to be changed:

// change the following paths if necessary
$yii=dirname(__FILE__).'/../yii/framework/yii.php';

Of course, put the absolute path to Yii on your server.
No need to symlink anything.

[Coksnuss]

Check out http://en.wikipedia....rarchy_Standard in order to find a suitable directory for your framework.
I've stored the framework in /usr/local/share/

[Maziar]

thank you Coksnuss ,
i stored the framework in /usr/local/share/ as you said,
now in index.php in root of app what should i say?
thanks for you responds

[jacmoe]

Take a look at index.php:

// change the following paths if necessary
$yii=dirname(__FILE__).'/../yii/framework/yii.php';

What exactly is it that you don't understand?

[Maziar]

jacmoe , imagine you have 1 dedicated server and you have 100 project for different client , and all of them you use Yii framework,
now what you will do? for each account for each client you want to upload Framework
of course this is not a best way and standard way,
it should be one way to place framework somewhere and all those 100 project for different clients refer to that Framework where is placed.

i hope that you got it...

[jacmoe]

That totally depends on how the server is set up.

For example, if the clients have their stuff in /home/username/stuff, then put Yii in /var/www/yii or any other directory on the server where the webserver has read rights.

Then users use the absolute path to where Yii is placed, like:

// change the following paths if necessary
$yii = '/var/www/yii/framework/yii.php';

[Maziar]

thanks a lot jacmoe,
great, i should put absolute path
again , thank you for your help,
