Drupal Commerce is an open-source e-commerce platform that enables you to create an online store to sell your products and services. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Drupal Commerce on Clear Linux latest.
To install Drupal Commerce on Clear Linux latest, you'll need:
Before installing any package, it's a good practice to update your system. Run the following command to update your system.
sudo swupd update
To install Drupal Commerce, run the following command:
sudo swupd bundle-add php-basic mysql devpkg-libxml2 devpkg-libzip
This command will install the necessary packages required to run Drupal Commerce on Clear Linux latest.
Drupal Commerce requires PHP version 7.3 or later. Clear Linux latest comes with PHP 7.3 pre-installed, but we need to enable it with a few additional steps.
First, enable the PHP 7.3 module by running the following command:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/php/7.3 /etc/php
Next, enable the PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) service on your system:
sudo systemctl enable php-fpm.service
sudo systemctl start php-fpm.service
To verify that PHP-FPM is working correctly, run the following command:
sudo systemctl status php-fpm.service
If everything is working, you'll see a message indicating that the service is active and running.
Drupal Commerce requires a database to store its content, and MySQL is one of the most commonly used databases with Drupal. Install MySQL by running the following command:
sudo swupd bundle-add mysql
sudo systemctl enable mysql
sudo systemctl start mysql
Once the installation is complete, secure the MySQL installation by running the following command:
sudo mysql_secure_installation
Drupal Commerce requires a web server to serve its content. Nginx is a high-performance web server that can handle a large number of requests. Install Nginx by running the following command:
sudo swupd bundle-add nginx
sudo systemctl enable nginx
sudo systemctl start nginx
Next, create a new Nginx configuration file for Drupal Commerce:
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/drupal-commerce
Add the following configuration to the file:
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.com;
root /var/www/drupal-commerce;
index index.php;
location / {
try_files $uri /index.php?$query_string;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}
Make sure to replace "example.com" with your site's domain name.
Save the file and enable the configuration by running the following command:
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/drupal-commerce /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
Test the configuration by running the following command:
sudo nginx -t
If everything is working correctly, you'll see a message indicating that the configuration is okay.
Next, download and install Drupal Commerce on Clear Linux latest by following these steps:
sudo tar -xvf drupal-commerce-2.x.x.tar.gz -C /var/www/
Replace "2.x.x" with the version number of the Drupal Commerce package you downloaded.
sudo mv /var/www/drupal-commerce-2.x.x /var/www/drupal-commerce
Replace "2.x.x" with the version number of the Drupal Commerce package you downloaded.
sudo chown -R nginx:nginx /var/www/drupal-commerce
