PluXml is a lightweight and efficient blogging system that allows users to create a blog easily. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation of PluXml on Debian Latest.
Before we start, make sure that you have a Debian Latest installed on your system along with the following prerequisites:
Firstly, you need to download the latest version of PluXml from their official website. You can use the following command to download PluXml:
wget https://download.pluxml.org/pluxml-latest.zip
This command will download the latest version of PluXml to your current working directory.
After downloading PluXml, you need to extract the zip archive using the following command:
unzip pluxml-latest.zip
This command will extract the PluXml files to a directory named "pluxml" in your current working directory.
Now that you have extracted the PluXml files, you need to move them to your website's root directory. The website root directory is usually "/var/www/html" on Debian.
sudo mv pluxml /var/www/html
This command will move the PluXml files to your website's root directory.
You need to set proper permissions for PluXml's files and directories to ensure that they can be accessed by your web server. You can use the following commands to do this:
cd /var/www/html
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data pluxml
sudo chmod -R 755 pluxml
These commands will set the ownership of PluXml's files and directories to the web server user, which is usually "www-data", and set the permissions to 755, which allows the web server to read, write and execute the files.
To use PluXml, you need to create a MySQL database and a user with full permissions on that database. You can use the following commands to create a database named "pluxml" and a user named "pluxml_user" with a password "password":
mysql -u root -p
CREATE DATABASE pluxml;
CREATE USER 'pluxml_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON pluxml.* TO 'pluxml_user'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit;
These commands will create a MySQL database, a user with full permissions on that database, and grant all privileges to the user on the "pluxml" database.
Now, you can open your web browser and access the installation page of PluXml by navigating to "http://your-server-ip/pluxml/install.php". You should replace "your-server-ip" with your server's IP address or domain name.
On the installation page, you will be asked to provide the details of your MySQL database, such as the database name, database user, and password. You also need to provide the admin username, admin password, and email address.
Fill in the required fields and click the "Install" button. PluXml will now install on your Debian system.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed PluXml on Debian Latest. You can now start to create your own blog with PluXml. If you face any issues during the installation process, feel free to consult the PluXml official website or the Debian community.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
