s-cart is an e-commerce platform that helps website owners build and manage their online stores. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation of s-cart on Clear Linux Latest.
Before you start with the installation process, you need to make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
To begin the installation, connect to your server via SSH. Open up your terminal and type the following command:
ssh root@your_server_ip
Replace your_server_ip with the IP address of your server.
You will be prompted to enter your server password. Once you are logged in, proceed to the next step.
s-cart requires several packages installed on your server. To install these packages, run the following command:
sudo swupd bundle-add lamp-server
sudo swupd bundle-add curl
sudo swupd bundle-add zip
You can download s-cart from the s-cart website. To download the latest version of s-cart, use the following command:
curl -O https://github.com/s-cart/s-cart/archive/refs/heads/master.zip
The above command fetches the latest version of s-cart from GitHub
After downloading the s-cart archive, unzip it using the following command.
sudo unzip master.zip -d /var/www/
The above command will extract the s-cart files to /var/www/ directory.
To run s-cart, you need to set the appropriate permissions for the s-cart files. Use the following command to set the permissions:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/s-cart-master
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/s-cart-master
Before you can use s-cart, you need to create a database and user for it. You can do this using the following command:
sudo mysql -u root -p
Enter your MySQL root password when prompted. Once you are logged in, create a new database and user for s-cart, and grant all privileges to the s-cart user:
CREATE DATABASE s_cart;
CREATE USER 's_cart'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON s_cart.* TO 's_cart'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;
Replace password with a strong password for your s-cart database user.
Once you have set up your database and user, you can proceed with the s-cart setup script. Open your web browser and visit http://your_ip_address/s-cart-master/setup/ to start the setup.
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup process.
