To complete installation you need to perform the following steps:
1) Create drupal database
2) Load drupal database scheme
3) Configure drupal base options
4) Add drupal entry to cron
1 - Creating drupal database
These instructions are for MySQL. If you are using another database,
check the database documentation. In the following examples,
"dba_user" is an example MySQL user which has the CREATE and GRANT
privileges. You will need to use the appropriate user name for your
system.
First, you must create a new database for your Drupal site:
$ mysqladmin -u dba_user -p create drupal
MySQL will prompt for the dba_user database password and then create
the initial database files. Next you must login and set the access
database rights:
$ mysql -u dba_user -p
Again, you will be asked for the dba_user database password. At the
MySQL prompt, enter following command:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON drupal.*
TO nobody@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
where
'drupal' is the name of your database
'nobody@localhost' is the userid of your webserver MySQL account
'password' is the password required to log in as the MySQL user
If successful, MySQL will reply with
Query OK, 0 rows affected
to activate the new permissions you must enter the command
flush privileges;
and then enter '\q' to exit MySQL.
2 - Load the drupal database scheme
Once you have a database, you must load the required tables:
$ mysql -u nobody -p drupal < database/database.mysql
3 - Configure drupal base options
Drupal server options are specified in sites/default/settings.php.
Before you can run Drupal, you must set the database URL and the
base URL to the web site. Open the configuration file and edit the
$db_url line to match the database defined in the previous steps:
$db_url = "mysql://username:password@localhost/drupal";
Set $base_url to match the address to your web site:
$base_url = "http://www.example.com";
4 - Add drupal entry to cron
Many Drupal modules have periodic tasks that must be triggered by a
cron job. To activate these tasks, you must call the cron page;
this will pass control to the modules and the modules will decide
if and what they must do.
The following example crontab line will activate the cron script
on the hour:
0 * * * * wget -O - -q http://${VHOST_HOSTNAME}/cron.php
The above information is a precis of the information in the drupal
INSTALL file more information can be found there!
