Installation instructions shared host: add netcup

[spadge4711]

Maybe this will help others, these steps worked for me (webhosting @netcup):

• use git in the root folder:
  git clone -b 1.8 --depth 1 https://github.com/kevinpapst/kimai2.git

• change to new "kimai2" folder:
  cd kimai2/

• install composer:
  curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | /usr/bin/php

  php composer.phar install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader

• configure your .env file (nano .env)

• install kimai:
  php bin/console kimai:install -n

• Reload config:
  php bin/console kimai:reload

• optional add an user via console: php bin/console kimai:create-user username [email protected] ROLE_SUPER_ADMIN

• configure netcup (using the customercontrolpanel) to use "/kimai2" as root folder for the domain or subdomain of your choice and add ssl (letsencrypt) for this domain/subdomain

• place a .htaccess file in the "kimai2" folder to redirect to "kimai2/public":

DirectoryIndex index.php

Redirect /index.php https://<your_kimai2_domain>/public/

Thanks for sharing @spadge4711 !
But it is dangerous to point your domain to kimai2. Always point it to kimai2/public/.
What do you see when you open: https://<your_kimai2_domain>/.env ?

Added it to the installation docs, thanks 👍
