Configuring XAMPP and Setting Wordpress , Drupal ,Joomla and sNews

Hi all

 I am giving the procedure for configuring XAMPP

1. I followed the procedure from the following link



                      or

               
















2. Setting Wordpress


1.Download wordpress and extract  to some location


2. Copy wordpress into /opt/lampp/htdocs path


3.Take browser and enter localhost/wordpress. If everything is ok, it will show like this


4. Before pressing Let's go button, you have to create a database ,say for eg: wordpress_test.

For creating database take phpmyadmin from xampp home screen.





5. Give the database name,password 


6. Copy the selected content to htdocs/wordpress as wp-config.php




7. Give Blog title and details




8. Give address as localhost/wordpress/wp-admin and give user name and details





3. Setting Drupal

1. Download and extract drupal into htdocs


2.Goto localhost/drupal(drupal folder)



3. Change the permission of drupal folder to remove the first error



4. Copy  and rename default-settings.php to settings.php inside drupal/sites/default folder.




5. Create a database, for eg : drupal_test


6. Enter the details of database username and password








4 . Setting Joomla

The procedures for setting joomla is almost similar to wordpress and drupal. I am giving the screenshot below
















5. Setting sNews


For setting snews, first we need to create a database and import content from a sql database inside the snews SQL folder. If you are using snews17 import snews17.sql as shown in figure







1.Take browser and goto localhost/snews






Issue while configuring !!!!


phpmyAdmin issue
----------------------------

When we take phpmyAdmin, if the window shows this error, then there is some issue with mysql.


You can solve this by stopping mysql service as shown below

$sudo service mysql stop

and start  sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start

Note : It  will be good if we remove mysql service from the startup too.
