In this HOWTO I'll cover setting up Fedora 8 to run CMS Made Simple.
Lets get started.
Download CMS Made Simple.
> wget http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/frs/download.php/1534/cmsmadesimple-1.2.tar.gz
> tar -xzvf cmsmadesimple-1.2.tar.gz
> mv cmsmadesimple-1.2 /usr/share/cmsmadesimple
To install CMS Made Simple for use just copy the directory to your web root.
We need to start by setting some directory permissions.
> cd cmsmadesimple
> chmod 777 tmp/templates_c
> chmod 777 tmp/cache
> chmod 777 uploads
> chmod 777 uploads/images
> chmod 777 modules
Now create the config file.
> touch config.php
> chmod 666 config.php
Next we need to setup an empty database with a username and password. If you have multiple sites be sure to use a different database for each site.
> /usr/bin/mysql -p -u root
mysql> create database cms;
mysql> grant all on cms.* to cms_user;
mysql> grant all on cms.* to cms_user@localhost;
mysql> set password for cms_user=password('cms_pass');
mysql> set password for cms_user@localhost=password('cms_pass');
mysql> exit;
Its time to load the web interface. Go to yourserver.org/csmmadesimple/
Follow the screens to complete the installation.
Once you are done you should remove the install directory.
> rm -rf install
CMS Made Simple is easy to install. Read the documentation on their site. Your site will be up and running in no time.
