-To complete installation you need to perform the following steps:
-
- 1) Create drupal database
- 2) Load drupal database scheme
- 3) Configure drupal base options
- 4) Add drupal entry to cron
-
-1 - Creating drupal database
-
- These instructions are for MySQL. If you are using another database,
- check the database documentation. In the following examples,
- "dba_user" is an example MySQL user which has the CREATE and GRANT
- privileges. You will need to use the appropriate user name for your
- system.
-
- First, you must create a new database for your Drupal site:
-
- $ mysqladmin -u dba_user -p create drupal
-
- MySQL will prompt for the dba_user database password and then create
- the initial database files. Next you must login and set the access
- database rights:
-
- $ mysql -u dba_user -p
-
- Again, you will be asked for the dba_user database password. At the
- MySQL prompt, enter following command:
-
- GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON drupal.*
- TO nobody@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
-
- where
-
- 'drupal' is the name of your database
- 'nobody@localhost' is the userid of your webserver MySQL account
- 'password' is the password required to log in as the MySQL user
-
- If successful, MySQL will reply with
-
- Query OK, 0 rows affected
-
- to activate the new permissions you must enter the command
-
- flush privileges;
-
- and then enter '\q' to exit MySQL.
-
-
-2 - Load the drupal database scheme
-
- Once you have a database, you must load the required tables:
-
- $ mysql -u nobody -p drupal < database/database.mysql
-
-
-3 - Configure drupal base options
-
- Drupal server options are specified in sites/default/settings.php.
-
- Before you can run Drupal, you must set the database URL and the
- base URL to the web site. Open the configuration file and edit the
- $db_url line to match the database defined in the previous steps:
-
- $db_url = "mysql://username:password@localhost/drupal";
-
- Set $base_url to match the address to your web site:
-
- $base_url = "http://www.example.com";
-
-
-4 - Add drupal entry to cron
-
- Many Drupal modules have periodic tasks that must be triggered by a
- cron job. To activate these tasks, you must call the cron page;
- this will pass control to the modules and the modules will decide
- if and what they must do.
-
- The following example crontab line will activate the cron script
- on the hour:
-
- 0 * * * * wget -O - -q http://${VHOST_HOSTNAME}/cron.php

-INSTALL file more information can be found there!
