PluXml is a flat-file content management system that allows you to create and manage your own website easily. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install PluXml on your Fedora Server Latest.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following requirements:
First, let's download the PluXml archive from the official website. Use the following command to download the latest version:
wget https://github.com/pluxml/PluXml/archive/release.zip
This will download the latest version of PluXml to your server.
After downloading the PluXml archive, unzip it using the following command:
unzip release.zip
This will create a new directory with the name PluXml-release
. Rename it to pluxml
using the following command:
mv PluXml-release pluxml
Now we need to create a new database and user for PluXml to use. Log in to your MySQL console using the following command:
mysql -u root -p
Enter the MySQL root password when prompted.
Next, create a new database for PluXml using the following command:
CREATE DATABASE pluxmldb;
This will create a new database with the name pluxmldb
. In the same console, create a new user and grant all privileges on the pluxmldb
database using the following commands:
CREATE USER 'pluxmluser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON pluxmldb.* TO 'pluxmluser'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Make sure to replace password
with a strong password.
Exit the MySQL console using the following command:
exit;
Now we need to configure PluXml by setting up the database connection details.
Navigate to the pluxml
directory using the following command:
cd pluxml
Copy the config/default.php
file to config/config.php
using the following command:
cp config/default.php config/config.php
Open the config/config.php
file using your favorite text editor and change the following lines:
$GLOBALS['DB_DSN'] = 'sqlite:/path/to/pluxml.db';
to:
$GLOBALS['DB_DSN'] = 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=pluxmldb;charset=UTF8';
$GLOBALS['DB_USER'] = 'pluxmluser';
$GLOBALS['DB_PASSWORD'] = 'password';
Make sure to replace password
with the password you set for the pluxmluser
user in Step 3.
Save and close the file.
Now we need to set the correct file permissions on the data
directory. Use the following command to change the ownership of the data
directory:
chown -R apache:apache data
Next, set the correct permissions on the data
directory:
chmod -R 755 data
Finally, let's access PluXml using your web browser. Open your web browser and navigate to http://your-server-ip/pluxml
.
You will see the PluXml installation wizard. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
Once the installation is complete, you will be redirected to the PluXml dashboard.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed PluXml on your Fedora Server Latest.
