</code>


open activities.sugarlabs.org in firefox
Enable all apache mods.
cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
ln -s ../mods-available/* .


===Install mysql===
Setup mysql(you need to enter mysql root password for these commands).
<code>
yum install mysql-server

<code>
  mysqladmin -u root password remora
  mysqladmin -u root password 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===
 
<code>
cp /var/www/site/app/config/config.php.default /var/www/site/app/config/config.php

</code>

<code>
  cd /var/www
  vim /var/www/site/app/config/config-local.php
aslo/db-create-stub.sh

<code>
Open a.sl.o in browser. To login use:
  <?php
  ''login'' admin@sugarlabs.org
define('DEBUG', 1);
  ''password'' test
define('DEV', true);
?>
</code>
 
<code>
chown apache:apache /var/www/site/app/config/config-local.php
</code>
 
This is necessary to generate debug message. Without it you get a somewhat disconcerting blankscreen.
 
Open activities.sugarlabs.org in firefox.

===Create download directory===


<code>
<code>

You should add "extension=memcache.so" to php.ini


<code>
