Setting up a Test Environment

Last Updated: 12/11/2003 tfox

1. Email sysadmin-devel and ask to be added to the ACLs for
the project-web module on cvs.devel. Request a cvs.devel CVS account
as well if you don't already have one.

2. Check out the project-web module on cvs.devel.

3. Install the httpd and php RPMs on your system if you don't have
them already.

4. There is a dir in project-web called config/. Copy httpd.conf to
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and php.ini to /etc/php.ini.

5. Create a symlink from /var/www/fedora.redhat.com/ to the html/ dir
of your project-web checkout:

cd /var/www
ln -s /your/co/of/project-web/html/ fedora.redhat.com

6. Create a symlink from /var/www/include/ to the include/ dir in your
project-web checkout:

ln -s /your/co/of/project-web/include .

7. Start httpd, and you should be good to go. If not, email
tfox@redhat.com.

If you get a permission denied error after this, you probably don't
have read permissions to the html/ and include/ dirs in your CVS
checkout.
