-Make sure your Apache configuration contains the required permissions for the

+You can download the [latest release from nominatim.org](https://nominatim.org/downloads/).
+The release contains all necessary files. Just unpack it.

- AddType text/html .php
- DirectoryIndex search.php
- Require all granted

- Alias /nominatim /srv/nominatim/build/website
+### Downloading the latest development version
-`/srv/nominatim/build` should be replaced with the location of your
-build directory.
+If you want to install latest development version from github, make sure to
+also check out the osm2pgsql subproject:
-After making changes in the apache config you need to restart apache.
-The website should now be available on http://localhost/nominatim.
+```
+git clone --recursive https://github.com/openstreetmap/Nominatim.git

-#### Configure for use with Nginx
+The development version does not include the country grid. Download it separately:

+### Building Nominatim
- ; Comment out the tcp listener and add the unix socket
- ;listen = 127.0.0.1:9000
- listen = /var/run/php5-fpm.sock
+The code must be built in a separate directory. Create the directory and
+change into it.
- ; Ensure that the daemon runs as the correct user
- listen.owner = www-data
- listen.group = www-data
- listen.mode = 0666
