01 · The problem
Business and technical context
A PlayTube installation needed the application files, database, PHP runtime, web-server behavior, writable paths, and public URL to agree before the product could be tested reliably.
02 · The solution
Implementation approach
I reviewed the server and platform prerequisites, installed the existing PlayTube product, connected its database and environment-specific configuration, aligned required paths and rewrite behavior, and verified the initial application workflow.
