CMStr.com: How to manually install Joomla 1.5+
by Chris Cornutt March 09, 2010 @ 14:40:12
From CMStr.com there's a new tutorial showing you how to set up Joomla manually just in case something happens with the install and you need to change things yourself.
Why would I want to do a manual install when my web host has this Fantastico thingy that will install Joomla for me? Good question. [...] If you are building websites for a living, and or plan on using Joomla a lot, then you really need to start doing your own installs. [...] If you are an experienced parachute jumper, you would pack your own chute right? This is no different.
Screenshots are included to help make the process easier as they walk you through setting up the basics like language settings and database information. They also touch on the FTP setting (off for security) and removing the admin user's information to help make things a bit more secure. It's not a comprehensive list of the things you'd need to do to get it 100% configured for just what you need, but it's a start.

HotToForge.com: Installing Cherokee With PHP5 And MySQL Support On Ubuntu 9.10
by Chris Cornutt February 17, 2010 @ 10:08:02
On the HowToForge.com site there's a new tutorial showing you how to get Cherokee, PHP and MySQL working on Ubuntu. Chreokee is a light-weight web server that has no dependencies beyond the standard C libraries.
Cherokee is a very fast, flexible and easy to configure Web Server. It supports the widespread technologies nowadays: FastCGI, SCGI, PHP, CGI, TLS and SSL encrypted connections, virtual hosts, authentication, on the fly encoding, load balancing, Apache compatible log files, and much more. This tutorial shows how you can install Cherokee on an Ubuntu 9.10 server with PHP5 support (through FastCGI) and MySQL support.
They use the aptitude package manager to install all of the software needed - the MySQL server and client, Cherokee and PHP - and include some of the configuration options you'll need to change to get it all up and running. The PHP functionality is provided to the web server via the FastCGI installation. A few screenshots are thrown in to show the Cherokee web-based admin interface in action.

Wb Developer Juice: 10 baby steps to install Memcached Server and access it with PHP
by Chris Cornutt January 27, 2010 @ 10:03:07
New from the Web Developer Juice blog there's a tutorial looking to help you get a memcached server up and running and make it accessible to your PHP applications.
Thinking of implementing caching for your php application , you are at a right place. Just in 10 simple (copy and paste) steps you can install and access Memcached Server.
Their steps use the yum package manager, but several other linux distributions with other packaging systems will probably have similarly-named packages. Since the install process requires loading system libraries and being able to restart the web server, you might needs to have a privileged account to make the installation work. It's a pretty simple process though - install the lib, install memcached, start up the server and test your PHP installation to be sure a sample script can reach it.

Symfony Blog: Windows and symfony
by Chris Cornutt December 25, 2009 @ 08:59:56
In this recent tutorial (a part of the Symfony project's advent series) Laurent Bonnet about getting the Symfony framework installed on a Windows 2008 server running the IIS web server.
In order to prepare for Internet deployment, the tutorial can be executed in a dedicated server environment, hosted on the Internet. Of course, it's possible to complete the tutorial on a local server, or a virtual machine at the reader's workstation.
Laurent briefly talks about some of the differences between the 64 bit and 32 bit versions of Windows, setting up the database connection (SQLite), configuring the Windows server and using the Web Platform Installer it get PHP up and running. The tutorial also covers the setup of a sandbox and production environment via the command-line symfony tool.

Padraic Brady's Blog: Installing PHP 5.3.1 On Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) With aptitude/apt-get
by Chris Cornutt December 09, 2009 @ 10:36:38
Padraic Brady has a quick post in response to some questions he saw about installing PHP on a Ubuntu system (9.10/Karmic Koala) via apt-get.
As there was some exclaimation marks on Twitter about this, here's a quick article on installing PHP 5.3.1 on Ubuntu 9.10 using aptitude or apt-get. I use aptitude primarily, but the installation uses normal .deb files. Since Ubuntu will not officially adopt PHP 5.3 until next April, the PHP 5.3 debs I use are pulled from the Dotdeb Debian "Lenny" repositories. These are perfectly compatible with Ubtuntu 9.10 and only require the manual installation of two extra dependencies which Ubuntu cannot resolve itself.
You'll need to add in some new sources to your list, but after that it's a pretty simple process to pull in the PHP 5.3 packages, add in a few extra libraries and then run the update for apt-get to install it all.

Michael Girouard's Blog: Pro Tip Installing PHP 5.2.9 on CentOS
by Chris Cornutt November 23, 2009 @ 10:46:38
Michael Girouard has posted a new guide today about getting PHP 5.2.9 up and running on a CentOS distribution:
CentOS in my opinion is the best way to go in terms of server distros. Some people, including myself, are frustrated at the fact that some software is slow to be updated out of a fresh install: specifically PHP. At the time of this writing, PHP 5.1.6 is the version shipped with CentOS 5.4. While I'm sure they have their reasons for this, I still am required to write somewhat modern apps - 5.1 just doesn't cut it anymore.
He suggests moving away from the compile from source option and "go with the flow" and work with the packages that've already been created. You have to get the testing repository set up first (creating a configuration file to add the name, baseurl and other keys) to be able to use the yum installer tool to grab the latest packages.

Juozas Kaziukenas' Blog: Zend Framework and Doctrine. Part 2
by Chris Cornutt November 18, 2009 @ 07:58:25
Juozas Kaziukenas has posted the second part of his series looking at the combination of the Zend Framework and Doctrine (part one is here). In the previous part he explained the technologies some. In this second part of the series he focuses more in getting Doctrine set up and working.
Today we start actual development with Doctrine and Zend Framework. Base of this post is my code which I have been using for quite a few projects and it worked really well.
He walks you through the steps to getting Doctrine set up - creating the database, downloading and unpacking the latest version of Doctrine, setting up your application.ini file and creating the models from the database. Add in a sample query and things should be working perfectly.

NETTUTS.com: 7AMP - Creating a Development Environment
by Chris Cornutt November 11, 2009 @ 11:36:22
On NETTUTS.com today there's a great new tutorial on getting a complete development environment set up with IIS, Apache, PHP, MySQL and getting them all to play nicely together.
To create the dynamic and interactive apps and sites that we've come to know and love, you need a development server. On Windows systems we really have only a few decent options available; we can use Microsoft's Internet Information Services (IIS), which is usually bundled with Ultimate or Business versions of Windows, or we can use Apache, the extremely popular open-source alternative
They walk you through the whole process, complete with screeshots of each application's setup, configuration files/changes, getting PHP to talk to MySQL and a sample script you can use to ensure that everything's working together.
