Sure! Here's a tutorial on how to install CMS Made Simple on Elementary OS:
Go to the official CMS Made Simple website and download the latest version of CMS Made Simple.
Once you've downloaded the CMS Made Simple archive, extract it to a folder on your system.
Move or copy the extracted CMS Made Simple files to /var/www/html/ directory on your Elementary OS system (your web root folder).
sudo mv /path/to/downloaded/folder /var/www/html/cmsmadesimple
Login to MySQL with root credentials:
mysql -u root -p
Then create a new database for CMS Made Simple:
CREATE DATABASE cmsmadesimple;
Create a new user in the MySQL database management system and grant privileges to the user for the newly-created database:
CREATE USER 'cmsuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'yourpassword';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `cmsmadesimple`.* TO 'cmsuser'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Copy the 'config-sample.php' file and rename it to "config.php":
cd /var/www/html/cmsmadesimple
cp config-sample.php config.php
Open the config.php file in your preferred text editor, and edit the following lines:
$key = 'ThisIsYourSecretKey';
$db_hostname = 'localhost';
$db_username = 'cmsuser';
$db_password = 'yourpassword';
$db_name = 'cmsmadesimple';
Replace 'ThisIsYourSecretKey' with a secret key of your own. Replace 'yourpassword' with the password you set for the 'cmsuser' user. You can leave 'localhost' and 'cmsmadesimple' unchanged unless you have altered the MySQL database name or created a user with a different name.
Save the file and close your text editor.
You need to set some permissions for the CMS Made Simple installation directory:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/cmsmadesimple/
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/cmsmadesimple/
Open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost/cmsmadesimple. The installer will guide you through the installation process. Fill out the required information, and complete the installation.
After you have installed CMS Made Simple, delete the install folder and its contents:
sudo rm -rf /var/www/html/cmsmadesimple/install/
That's it! You have successfully installed CMS Made Simple on Elementary OS Latest. You can now create and manage your website with this CMS.
