How to Install Drupal Commerce on Clear Linux Latest

Drupal Commerce is an open-source e-commerce platform that enables you to create an online store to sell your products and services. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Drupal Commerce on Clear Linux latest.

Prerequisites

To install Drupal Commerce on Clear Linux latest, you'll need:

  • A clear Linux latest version installed on your system
  • A sudo user account

Step 1: Update Your System

Before installing any package, it's a good practice to update your system. Run the following command to update your system.

sudo swupd update

Step 2: Install Required Packages

To install Drupal Commerce, run the following command:

sudo swupd bundle-add php-basic mysql devpkg-libxml2 devpkg-libzip

This command will install the necessary packages required to run Drupal Commerce on Clear Linux latest.

Step 3: Install and Configure PHP

Drupal Commerce requires PHP version 7.3 or later. Clear Linux latest comes with PHP 7.3 pre-installed, but we need to enable it with a few additional steps.

First, enable the PHP 7.3 module by running the following command:

sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/php/7.3 /etc/php

Next, enable the PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) service on your system:

sudo systemctl enable php-fpm.service
sudo systemctl start php-fpm.service

To verify that PHP-FPM is working correctly, run the following command:

sudo systemctl status php-fpm.service

If everything is working, you'll see a message indicating that the service is active and running.

Step 4: Install and Configure MySQL

Drupal Commerce requires a database to store its content, and MySQL is one of the most commonly used databases with Drupal. Install MySQL by running the following command:

sudo swupd bundle-add mysql
sudo systemctl enable mysql
sudo systemctl start mysql

Once the installation is complete, secure the MySQL installation by running the following command:

sudo mysql_secure_installation

Step 5: Install and Configure Nginx

Drupal Commerce requires a web server to serve its content. Nginx is a high-performance web server that can handle a large number of requests. Install Nginx by running the following command:

sudo swupd bundle-add nginx
sudo systemctl enable nginx
sudo systemctl start nginx

Next, create a new Nginx configuration file for Drupal Commerce:

sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/drupal-commerce

Add the following configuration to the file:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name example.com;

    root /var/www/drupal-commerce;
    index index.php;

    location / {
        try_files $uri /index.php?$query_string;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
    }

    location ~ /\.ht {
        deny all;
    }
}

Make sure to replace "example.com" with your site's domain name.

Save the file and enable the configuration by running the following command:

sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/drupal-commerce /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/

Test the configuration by running the following command:

sudo nginx -t

If everything is working correctly, you'll see a message indicating that the configuration is okay.

Step 6: Download and Install Drupal Commerce

Next, download and install Drupal Commerce on Clear Linux latest by following these steps:

  1. Download the Drupal Commerce package from https://drupalcommerce.org/download.
  2. Extract the package to the Nginx document root directory:
sudo tar -xvf drupal-commerce-2.x.x.tar.gz -C /var/www/

Replace "2.x.x" with the version number of the Drupal Commerce package you downloaded.

  1. Rename the extracted directory to "drupal-commerce":
sudo mv /var/www/drupal-commerce-2.x.x /var/www/drupal-commerce

Replace "2.x.x" with the version number of the Drupal Commerce package you downloaded.

  1. Set the correct permissions on the Drupal Commerce directory:
sudo chown -R nginx:nginx /var/www/drupal-commerce

Step 7: Complete the Drupal Commerce Installation

To complete the Drupal Commerce installation, follow these steps:

  1. Open your web browser and navigate to your site's domain name.
  2. Select your language and click "Save and continue."
  3. Choose the "Commerce kickstart" installation profile and click "Save and continue."
