Pre-installation software checklist

Download and place drupal files

 

 

 

...

  1. Obtain the latest Drupal release and extract the contents of the compressed file (as of this writing it was 7.34)

    $ wget http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/drupal-x.x.tar.gz $ tar -xzvf drupal-x.x.tar.gz

    Code Block
    languagebash
    $ cd /opt/downloads
    $ wget http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/drupal-x.x.tar.gz
    $ tar -xzvf drupal-x.x.tar.gz
    Info

    Remember: the "x.x" is in reference to whatever Drupal version you would download. This version of Islandora is currently only compatible with Drupal 7.x.x

    If you're intending to use a version of Islandora other than 7.x.x, please reference previously documentation that can be found here.

  2. Change directory ("cd") to the location where you wish to install Drupal. For example, a very common Apache web directory is "/var/www/

    Code Block
    languagebash
    $ cd /var/www
  3. Move the contents of  the drupal-x.x directory into a directory within your web server's document root or public HTML directory (ensure that the .htaccess file, a hidden file, is successfully moved into the destination directory as well).

    Code Block
    languagesql
    $ mv -v /opt/downloads/drupal-x.x/* /var/www
    Note
    Please note:
    • Your Apache config will need to so reflect the path to your Islandora install. Apache site/virtual host configuration files are ideal.
