How to Install REDAXO on Void Linux
REDAXO is a content management system that allows you to create and manage websites with ease. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing REDAXO on your Void Linux machine.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, you will need:
- A Void Linux machine
- A terminal application
- Root access to the machine
Step 1: Update and Upgrade Packages
Before we begin the installation of REDAXO, we need to ensure that our system is up to date. To do this, we will run the following command:
sudo xbps-install -Su
This command will update and upgrade all packages on your Void Linux machine.
Step 2: Install Apache and PHP
REDAXO requires a web server and PHP to run. We will install Apache and PHP on our machine using the following command:
sudo xbps-install -S apache php php-fpm
This command will install the Apache web server and PHP on your machine.
Step 3: Install REDAXO
We will install REDAXO using the following command:
sudo xbps-install -S redaxo
This command will install the REDAXO content management system on your machine.
Step 4: Configure REDAXO
After the installation is complete, we need to configure the REDAXO system. We need to edit the Apache configuration file to enable PHP support. To do this, we will run the following command:
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
In this file, we need to uncomment the following line:
LoadModule php7_module /usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp7.so
Save and exit the file.
We also need to configure REDAXO. We need to copy the configuration file and change the permissions. To do this, we will run the following command:
sudo cp /usr/share/redaxo/include/master.inc.php /usr/share/redaxo/include/config.inc.php
sudo chown -R apache:apache /usr/share/redaxo/include/config.inc.php
Step 5: Restart Apache
We need to restart the Apache web server to apply the changes we made in the configuration file. To do this, we will run the following command:
sudo systemctl restart httpd
Step 6: Access REDAXO
REDAXO should now be accessible by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost/redaxo. You will be prompted to set up an administrator account and password.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed REDAXO on your Void Linux machine.
