first ensure you have a webserver with php5.3 or better, a mysql-server with a fresh database available
create a username that can access your database
inject the dump.sql file into this database, this will create an empty DB with a default benjamin/poipoi username
copy config.php.sample to config.php and setup the database login and the root book/projects folder inside it.
point a http (or better https) vhost into the www/ folder.
if you are using Apache, please allow .htaccess parsing using "AllowOverride All"
if you are using another web server, setup the rewriting so that every non-file points to index.php
setup a crontab (scheduled-task) to launch the sh/scanner.php file at least once a day.
