Just read through the install guide and it will work. Simple and easy to setup.
- Go to the server root.
- wget the install files from
wget https://github.com/octobercms/install/archive/master.zip
. - Unzip and rename the folder.
- Check the requirements by visiting the install.php page.
- If there are any issues then rectify it. For me permission were. So..
- I had to do the following:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data TestOctober
sudo chmod -R 775 TestOctober
- Create the required blank database.
- Run the installer.
- Keep track of all the various usernames and passwords of the installation.
- Try it out.
- Was a breeze
Issues
- Is my shared hosting PHP7.1 the requirement?
- Are there all the plugins and things that I requie for my site/blog?
