View 4 RepliesThere are many ways of accomplishing this installation. What this tutorial attempts to do is to outline the most basic installation possible. It show you how to install Drupal from the command-line to speed up "development" of your website. [[EDIT]] REMOVED LAMP SERVER INSTALL PART OF TUTORIAL AS THERE ARE MUCH BETTER (MORE SECURE) TUTORIALS ON THIS TOPIC.
Install drush for using the command line on Drupal. Create some management scripts to manage Drupal via the command-line. Create some installation scripts to install drupal via the command-line. Make the scripts executable and install them in /usr/local/bin. Open a terminal and install Drupal with one command.
01. You have your LAMP server, Drupal MySQL database and databse user setup and ready to go! For development sites on my local desktop machine I use root as drupal's database user because it speeds up re-installation when necessary.
02. Install drush (DRUSH 4.4 AVAILABLE IN NATTY WITHOUT PPA)
#apt-get install drush
03. Create 3 folders to hold your drupal backups, scripts and libraries
#mkdir /home/user/drupal/backup
#mkdir /home/user/drupal/scripts
#mkdir /home/user/drupal/libraries
#cd /home/user/drupal/scripts
04. Create a script to manage web server permissions
#gedit drupal-siteperms && chmod +x drupal-siteperms

#! /bin/bash
cd /var/www

I'm trying to run Xampp so that I can test Drupal out. I'm running Lucid Lynx Beta. I'm having a lot of trouble getting Xampp to run. I downloaded Xampp version 1.7.3a and installed it but when I type http://localhost in Firefox to see if Xampp is working it just says:

I had OpenERP completely installed and running just fine. All basic install instructions just worked out of the box on Ubuntu 11.04. Now, we also are going to develop our own web site. For that we needed a web development environment. Due to the small size of our home business, we have to do it all on one PC. So I went ahead and installed everything needed to get Drupal going, among which I had to install:
LAMP
Drupal
Memcached
Memcache
Postfix
Tomcat
and other packages.It all works like a charm, but now my openerp-web crashes when I start it with the following message:
Code:

[20/May/2011:16:17:19] ENGINE Started monitor thread '_TimeoutMonitor'.

For those that do not know it: it is a module that interfaces with the OpenERP server software to allow people to access the system through their web browser, effectively eliminating the use to install a client on their PC. Very practical for our light weight laptop that we use in combination with my PC.
Normally one would connect by browsing to [URL] and automatically get connected with the OpenERP environment.Now, however, that does not work anymore with the above error as a result. Do you guys have any idea if I have to configure something in Apache to get this working again? Possibly with instructions, otherwise I'd get lost again in no time.
Is it possible to complete a drupal installation and change the configuration from the comman line or a script. Id like to be able to automate the process of installing and configuring drupal. I should say that this is quite a bit beyond me. Ive not long started learning scripting.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have user names / info for several thousand users I want to add to the website Im working on. Though this is a test server, I would like to have some way to automate adding users to my drupal site. So, I'm looking into drush. From the man page for drush, I dont see any way to add users. Once I figure out how to add 1 user, and configure thier default pages ect, I can write an Expect (TCL/Tk) script to handle the processing. But I need to know how to add users in drupal 7.4 via the terminal.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI extracted the Drupal package (6.20) to /var/www/html and followed the provided install.txt file, but whenever I try to navigate to the site it simply comes up with the PHP script as plain text (it does automatically redirect me to install.php) rather than executing it. PhpMyAdmin works fine, as does a simple PHP "hello world" page I made, so I assume PHP isn't the problem. Now my question is: what could be causing this?
I can't tell for sure if the problem's with Drupal itself (I started over once with no luck) or some setting on my system, but since I don't have an account there I figured I'd ask here first.Running F14 x64, Apache, PHP and MySQL are all at latest versions available.
I've successfully set-up Drupal on my machine on a local network and have no problem accessing it with the virtual host names defined in /etc/hosts, but I don't have bind or any other DNS set-up.I've installed Postfix and can sent email with the mail command to unix account, and I can also read them with the mail command( from the command line).Now, my problem is with not being able to use the local Unix email accounts in drupal. Particularly, I would like to have one of the unix account receive email for the development site.I might like to also have various user on the drupal installation, and then test sending notifications to them.here is my /etc/postfix/main.cf# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version

I am trying to uninstall my LAMP server and my Drupal 7 installation. Unfortunately I cannot find any instructions on uninstalling Druapl from my system. The ones that exist are far too old( < 2008 ) to be relevant. Could someone please direct me how to go about this? Note: I did not use Synaptic for installation. I downloaded the file from the drupal.org site.

View 4 Replies View Relatedi'm in the process of migrating from Drupal 5 to Drupal 6. My main Drupal page won't load. I have been stepping through the index.php Eclipse and XDebug.The error I'm receiving is:"can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'".i think the sock file setting is correct; it matches what the MSQL control panel has.
First question: if my.cnf says the sock file is in /var/run/mysqld, why do I keep getting the error that it can't open /tmp/mysql.sock? How do I tell Drupal to use '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock'?
Second question: the mysql command-line interface (i.e., after i have logged into mysql from the terminal) doesn't mention a port from the listing obtained by entering 's'. is it possible that 3306 is a mistake? (I have tried commenting out the port reference and i still get the error identified at the top of the thread.)
does anyone have any ideas about how to resolve the 'sock' error? Many thanks if you do. Merry Christmas, too.
I have installed debian-6.0.0-i386-DVD on my vmware. I want to install php 5.2 on it. But whatever mirror i'm using in my source.list i'm not getting my php 5.2.17 installed. Is there a debian mirror that i can use in my source.list to install php 5.2.15? I do not want to install 5.3, because it's not working for drupal 6 yet. I'm new to linux. i'm using apg -get update to receive the update.

View 5 Replies View RelatedWell, I was just doing an update, and there was an update for git that was held back. I decided to force this update using 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade', and installation of git then failed. At this point in Synaptic - I could see versions listed as 'lucid', 'lucid-security', and then this ppa version. Then I barely managed to remove git - but now, if I try to install it again, *only* the ppa version is listed in Synaptic - no more 'lucid' and 'lucid-security' versions!!! Does anyone have an idea how I could recover the 'lucid', 'lucid-security' versions? I will try to salvage as much of the terminal with the problems as I can below...
