  service mysqld start
  git-clone git://git.sugarlabs.org/slo-activities/mainline.git /var/www
</code>

Fetch external dependencies:
cd /var/www/site/vendors/
svn co http://svn.mozilla.org/libs/product-details
svn co http://svn.mozilla.org/libs/fizzypop.mozdev fizzypop
svn co http://svn.mozilla.org/libs/phorms
svn co http://svn.mozilla.org/libs/zxtm-api


<code>
== Set up server ==
service httpd restart
</code>


open activities.sugarlabs.org in firefox. Make sure mysql is enabled
Setup apache. Add followed lines to the end of VirtualHost section in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled file:
DocumentRoot /var/www/site/app/webroot
  <Directory /var/www/>AllowOverride All</Directory>


===Setup mysql===
Enable all apache mods.
cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
ln -s ../mods-available/* .


<code>
Setup mysql(you need to enter mysql root password for these commands).
  mysqladmin -u root password remora
  mysqladmin -u root password remora
  mysqladmin -u root -p create remora
  mysqladmin -u root -p create remora
mysqladmin -u root -p create remora-test
  mysql -u root -p
  mysql -u root -p
 
  GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'remora'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'remora';
  GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'remora'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'remora';
  exit;  
  exit;  
</code>


===Populate tables===
Add our server to /etc/hosts file.
<code>
  127.0.0.1 a.sl.o
mysql -u remora -p -D remora </var/www/site/app/config/sql/remora.sql
  mysql -u remora -p -D remora-test </var/www/site/app/config/sql/remora.sql
mysql -u remora -p -D remora </var/www/site/app/tests/data/remora-test-data.sql
mysql -u remora -p -D remora-test </var/www/site/app/tests/data/remora-test-data.sql
</code>


To test server create /var/www/site/app/webroot/php.php:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
Open http://a.sl.o/php in browser and make sure mysql is enabled.


===Configure aso===
== Configure ASLO ==


===Edit config.php===
cd /var/www
aslo/db-create-stub.sh


<code>
Open a.sl.o in browser. To login use:
cp /var/www/site/app/config/config.php.default /var/www/site/app/config/config.php
  ''login'' admin@sugarlabs.org
  vim /var/www/site/app/config/config.php
''password'' test
</code>


===Edit config-local.php===
== Optional steps ==


<code>
====Install php-memcache====
vim /var/www/site/app/config/config-local.php
</code>


<code>
<code>
  <?php
  yum install php-devel gcc zlib-devel
  define('DEBUG', 1);
   
  define('DEV', true);
  pecl install memcache
  ?>
  vim /etc/php.ini
</code>
 
<code>
chown apache:apache /var/www/site/app/config/config-local.php
</code>
</code>


This is necessary to generate debug message.  Without it you get a somewhat disconcerting blankscreen.
You should add "extension=memcache.so" to php.ini
 
Open activities.sugarlabs.org in firefox.
 
===Create repo directories===


<code>
<code>
  mkdir /var/www/files
  service httpd restart
mkdir /var/www/files/temp
mkdir /var/www/files/extracted
chown -R apache:apache /var/www/files
</code>
 
===Install php-memcache===
 
<code>
yum install php-devel
yum install gcc
yum install zlib-devel
pecl install memcache
vim /etc/php.ini
</code>

===Test activities.sugarlabs.org===
* Fix search
 
* Fix downloads
open activities.sugarlabs.org/tests?case=installation.test.php in firefox.
* Lots of testing, debugging and fixing
* Upstream all patches that can make easier future rebases (and have a chance of being accepted)
* Translate our new strings
* Change the design accordingly to the Sugar image
