Re: [cobalt-users] MySQL and PHP

[Toni Soto <planeta@xxxxxx>]

Hello Kate,

I promised a few days ago to one friend for Argentina call Fabian to
write about how to install MySQL and PHP on a RAQ3. I also write this
post in Spanish. Spanish versión at the bottom.

So please read below [leer a continuación]...

First of all you need to install MySQL and then PHP. But some extra
files must be installed before. Follow the steps..
[En primer lugar instalaremos MySQL y después PHP. Necesitamos instalar
antes algunos ficheros. Sigue los pasos]

1.- Telnet to your server and chage to root (su root)
     [Entra por telnet y cambia a root]

2.- To install the packages from the Cobalt FTP site do the next from
the shell promt (cut and paste):
[Instalaremos desde Cobalt FTP site. Copia y pega las órdenes
siguientes]

>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/freetype-utils-1.2-7.i386.rpm

(wait till it finishs)... then..
[Espera hasta que termine..... luego..].

>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/gd-1.3-5.i386.rpm

..... then...

>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/gd-devel-1.3-5.i386.rpm

.... then ......

>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/freetype-1.2-7.i386.rpm

... then ...

>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/freetype-devel-1.2-7.i386.rpm

now its the turn to MySQL ......
[Ahora le toca a MySQL]

>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/MySQL-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm

... (It will take long) ..then ...
[.. Lleva tiempo..]

>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/MySQL-client-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm

... then ...

>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/MySQL-devel-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm

... then ...


>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/MySQL-shared-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm

... then ...


>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/MySQL-bench-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm

And the installation of MySQL has finished. Now we go on with PHP files.

[Terminamos la instalación de MySQL. Ahora PHP...]

>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/php-3.0.16-2C2.i386.rpm

... then ...


>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/php-3.0.16-2C2.src.rpm

... then ...


>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/php-imap-3.0.16-2C2.i386.rpm

... then ...


>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/php-mysql-3.0.16-2C2.i386.rpm

... then ...


>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/php-manual-3.0.16-2C2.i386.rpm

... then ...

>  rpm -hUv
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/raq3/php-ldap-3.0.16-2C2.i386.rpm

If things were OK, you should have installed both MySQL and PHP.
[Si todo fue bien, MySQL y PHP deberían estar instalados]

To check MySQL just type:
[Para comprobar MySQL escribe]

> mysql -u root

and you should see....
[deberías ver..]

mysql>

type..
[teclea..]

mysql> show databases;

and you should see two databases 'mysql' and 'test'.
[deberían aparecer dos bases de datos 'mysql' y 'test'.]

To quit from MySQL just type...
[Para salir, teclea,,]

mysql> \q;

If you experience some problem, please.. let me know. I did it myself a
few days ago and they both are running.
[Si no ha funcionado, escribid. Yo lo hice hace unos días y está
funcionando.]

Best regards from Spain.
Más concretamente desde Galicia.
