Uploaded core files to hosting server, now how to proceed?
Permalink
Hello
I've downloaded and uploaded via FTP the core files and folders to my www folder in Ubuntu 10.10, and has apache, mysql etc running. What is the next step/s to setup and run a website?
I am used to drupal, whereby I entered my db info in a settings.php file and then ran the install.php file in my web-browser. Something similar for concrete5 as well?

if all is uploaded and your database set and empty, just go to the url and follow the install page instructions.

Can you tell me which url it is? I created a new db, with name concrete5. Is there other modifications to perform on the server itself, like in Drupal, I usually create a folder with my site name, then setup its settings.php file and then run the install.php in my browser based on the name of the folder representing my site.

the url of the web repository where you have uploaded your files.
the url of your domain.
simply, by exemple you have a domain named sd.mydomain.tld you juste have to go onhttp://sd.mydomain.tld Concrete5 will detect that there is no /config/site.php file and will launch the installer automaticly.
or onhttp://localhost/my_folder if you have installed C5 on a local virtual host.

thanks cali, in fact I did not create a sub-folder in the www folder, that's why when I ran localhost was only getting a success message but not the site itself.
Am on a local virtual host, any means I can get the site url ashttp://www.mysite.com? for now am usinghttp://localhost/mysite.com

if it's on the localhost root, there is no problem but you should have an index.html witch have priority on the index.php of concrete5
remove the index.html and you should obtaiin the install page with localhost
