Try installing Concrete5 on CentOS6.7

My name is Ito and I am an infrastructure engineer.

Our customers operate a variety of websites.
Of course, some of them use CMS, so there are many opportunities to interact with CMS as well as servers.

This time, I tried using Concrete5.

download

Download :: concrete5 Japan Japanese official website

This time, we will download the latest version 5.7.5.8 as of 2016/06/23.
I think it will be saved as index.html as is, so use the "-O" option to create a zip file.

# wget http://www.concrete5.org/download_file/-/view/89071/ -O concrete5.zip # unzip concrete5.zip # mv concrete5.7.5.8/* /var/www/public_html/

Move the unzipped file to the directory where you want to publish it.

As a side note, there are two ways to use compressed files: ``expanding'' and ``unzipping'', but ``unzipping'' seems to be outdated. .

Creating and configuring the database

Let's create a DB to use for Concrete5.

If it is not an empty database, you will be annoyed during installation.
This time we will use a database called "concrete5".

# mysql> create database concrete5; # mysql> show databases; +--------------------+ | Database | +------------ ---------+ | information_schema | | concrete5 | | mysql | | test | +-------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Set a password. This time it's "concuser".

# mysql > GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON concrete5.* TO 'concuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '******' WITH GRANT OPTION;

*Please change the password as appropriate.

So, I don't think you can use mysql with the default settings, but
Concrete5 requires the DB to be used in UTF8.

The character set (connection collation) of the database table must be "utf8_general_ci".

Let's check it out.

# mysql> SELECT @@character_set_database, @@collation_database; +--------------------------+---------- ------------+ | @@character_set_database | @@collation_database | +--------------------------+ ----------------------+ | latin1 | latin1_swedish_ci | +--------------------- -----+----------------------+

No way! By the way, this is the state when mysql is run by default.
It's now latin.

# mysql> alter database concrete5 character set utf8; # mysql> use concrete5 Database changed # mysql> SELECT @@character_set_database, @@collation_database; +-------------------- ------+----------------------+ | @@character_set_database | @@collation_database | +---------- ----------------+----------------------+ | utf8 | utf8_general_ci | +---- ----------------------+----------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Now it's UTF8!
Let's change my.cnf.

# vim /etc/my.cnf character-set-server = utf8 default-character-set=utf8 # /etc/init.d/mysqld restart

Now you're ready!
Set up Apache's VirtualHost and try accessing it.

This is the installation screen. Select the language and click "Choose Language".

Are the items required for installation installed?
If there are any problems, correct them and select "Continue installation".

Enter the information required for installation. Site information and administrator information can be changed later.
If you want to create a complete site from scratch, install a sample site with ``Blank Site'', or if you are not familiar with it, install a sample site with ``Full Site''.
After filling in the necessary information, click "Install concrete5".

Installation in progress. . Let's wait a while.

This is a notification that the installation is complete. Click "Open site".

Congratulations! !

So, I was able to install Concrete5! !
Yeah, it's easy.
