Set db like this in main.php

‘db’=>(defined(‘DB_CONNECTION’) ? array(

                'connectionString'=&gt;DB_CONNECTION,


                'username'=&gt;DB_USER,


                'password'=&gt;DB_PWD,


                'charset'=&gt;'utf8',


                'emulatePrepare' =&gt; true,


                'enableParamLogging'=&gt;true,


            ) : array()),

and define variables in another file(installer.php) and merge with main.php .

On installation get the values and write it installer.php .
