This page explains how to install Drupal on Fedora systems. The /usr/share/doc/drupal-*/drupal-README.fedora
page on your system also has up-to-date instructions for your versions of Fedora and Drupal.
Web and SQL server setup
- Switch to the root account. Enter the root password at the prompt.
su -
- Install necessary packages:
yum shell > groupinstall 'Web Server' 'MySQL Database' > install drupal > run ts
- If you have not already done so, start the MySQL database server:
service mysqld start
- If you have not already done so, set up the MySQL database server's administrator account. First, provide a root password.
mysql_secure_installation
- Create a database for Drupal:
mysqladmin -u root -p create drupal
- Grant rights for a Drupal administrator on this database:
[root@publictest1 ~]# mysql -u root -p Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 5 Server version: 5.1.41 Source distribution Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the current input statement. mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON drupal.* TO drupaladmin@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'DRUPAL_PASSWORD'; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) mysql> QUIT; Bye
The drupaladmin account and the DRUPAL_PASSWORD you used above are the ones you will use in Drupal's installation process shortly.
Drupal setup
- Turn on the SELinux booleans that allow the Apache web server to contact the MySQL database via the network and send email:
setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect_db=1 setsebool -P httpd_can_sendmail=1
- Edit the
/etc/httpd/conf.d/drupal.conf
file. If you are installing on the same system where you run your Web browser, uncomment the line below:Allow from 127.0.0.1
If you are installing on a different system on your network, change the previous lines so they read as follows:
#Deny from All Allow from All
Save the file. - Edit the
/usr/share/drupal/.htaccess
file. Uncomment the line below:RewriteBase /drupal
Save the file. - If necessary, change your firewall settings to permit TCP port 80 (HTTP) traffic.
- Copy and change the permissions on the default settings file:
cp /etc/drupal/default/default.settings.php /etc/drupal/default/settings.php chmod 666 /etc/drupal/default/settings.php
- Edit the
/etc/php.ini
file to set thedate.timezone
for PHP on the system. Uncomment the line and insert your timezone, for example:date.timezone = America/New_York
If you are unsure what to put here, look in the Drupal system's/usr/share/zoneinfo
directory. You can use the relative name of a file in that directory for the timezone setting here. - Start the Apache web server:
service httpd start
- Point your web browser at the system to be installed and follow the instructions on screen. When prompted for database information, remember to use the information for the drupal MySQL database you installed earlier. When the site asks for Drupal administrator account information later, you should use a different user name and passphrase.
- Remove write permissions from the settings file:
chmod 644 /etc/drupal/default/settings.php
