1. Before starting manual installation copy /components/ILIAS/setup_/minimal-config.json to /data_dir/config.json and fill neccessary details refering following guide. (Add parameter "Database" as well) Refer /docs/configuration/install.md
2. Install using following command.
php cli/setup.php install [[data_dir]]/config.json
### Keep root directory writable before starting manual installation ###
To fill config.json: https://docu.ilias.de/ilias.php?ref_id=367&obj_id=75023&cmd=layout&cmdClass=illmpresentationgui&cmdNode=13g&baseClass=ilLMPresentationGUI

3. Enter "clientid" in Client ID.
4. set location of ilias.log in [[softdatadir]]\ilias.log in manual
5. set location of log folder in [[softdatadir]]\logs in manual
6. client.ini.php is writable admin can delete and create new client, permission is required to delete the client.

8. Check and create symlinks in every version.
9. PHP REQUIREMENT LINK : https://docu.ilias.de/ilias.php?ref_id=367&obj_id=75023&cmd=layout&cmdClass=illmpresentationgui&cmdNode=13g&baseClass=ilLMPresentationGUI#system-requirements
10. Windows not supported : https://www.ilias.de/docu/goto.php?target=lm_367&client_id=docu#supported-platforms
11. apply following settings in php.ini to resolve strict error confirmed with vendor
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT;
display_errors = Off
12. SQL export doesn't works on server, take sql dump using command. mysqldump --routines -u root -pmysql ilias100 > ilias100.sql(Take sql dump when CLI install is complete)
13. Keep ilias_uuid value as it is because it is constant for all installations. (/setup/sql/ilias3.sql)
14 We have created config.json file in softdatadir because installer states to keep this file outside doc-root.
https://docu.ilias.de/goto_docu_pg_124784_367.html
15. Keep /logs folder and ilias.log file in data directory as we have put these path in config.json for error log.
16. Ignore the directories created in [[softpath]]/public/data/ during manual installation. The script uses data directory path which is outside webroot.
17. ILIAS supports only CLI upgrade.
https://docu.ilias.de/ilias.php?baseClass=illmpresentationgui&obj_id=75023&ref_id=367#upgrading-ilias
18. Check and move /datadir/clientid/storage/fsv2
19. Under `settings` table in sql, make sure that details filled in config.json i.e admin_fname, admin_lname, admin_email are configured in sql as well.
20. Ilias 10 doesn't support utf8mb4 collations, so while making manual installation on MYSQL 8, select utf8mb3_general_ci as collation via phpmyadmin (Earlier utf8_general_ci). This is mentioned in official docs

21. Check and move artifacts files if they are not generating through us.
