Update:Remora Server Requirements
From MozillaWiki
Contents |
Server Software [edit]
- Cake requirements
- Apache 2.0 w/ mod_rewrite
- PHP4 >= 4.3.2 (PHP5 does not work with our settings)
- RDBMS (MySQL, PostgreSQL)
- Remora requires few PHP modules:
Installation [edit]
Main Site [edit]
Apache [edit]
- Set your DocumentRoot for the main site:
DocumentRoot /opt/yourpath/site/app/webroot
- Either make sure you AllowOverride for .htaccess files, or copy the .htaccess files to the vhost.conf -- they are in site/, site/app/ and site/app/webroot/
SVN, DB and app config [edit]
- Check out the site from trunk (for now):
svn co http://svn.mozilla.org/addons/trunk/ /opt/yourpath
- Set up the 'remora' and 'remora-test' databases and grant all privs for those DB's to a user:
mysql -p -D remora < site/app/config/sql/remora.sql mysql -p -D remora < site/app/tests/data/remora-test-data.sql mysql -p -D remora-test < site/app/config/sql/remora.sql mysql -p -D remora-test < site/app/tests/data/remora-test-data.sql
- Set up your database config:
cp site/app/config/database.php.default site/app/config/database.php
- Enter the correct database information and you're ready to go -- you can use the same db for default and testing for now.
CRON (staging only!) [edit]
- Repulls and reinserts 'remora' database contents every 5 hour
- Repulls and reinserts 'remora-test' database contents every 5 minutes
- Auto-updates all code from / all the way down every 5 minutes
Services [edit]
Apache [edit]
- Set up a vhost for the services directory
- Need to either AllowOverride for docroot or put contents of app/webroot/.htaccess into the vhost config.
Config [edit]
- Copy config-dist.php to config.php and add the same database info as with the main site.
- If you'd like to set local development settings, see this config-local.php page.
Permissions [edit]
The following directories (and all subdirectories and files) need to be writable by apache:
- app/webroot/files
- app/tests/data
Configuration [edit]
Copy app/config/database.php.default to app/config/database.php and modify the default and test databases to be your database, but for the test database use a user with read-only privileges. To create a user with read-only privileges, execute this SQL command after replacing {variables}:
- GRANT SELECT ON {database} TO '{username}'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '{password}';
First, import app/config/remora.sql - this provides the schema and standard data for langs, translations, and addontypes.
Then, import app/tests/remora-test-data.sql - this inserts more complete test data. Currently, addon id 7(MicroFarmer) is most complete.
Installation Test [edit]
If the installation is successful, all of the tests should pass in the installation test. The installation test can be found by going to ROOT/tests?case=installation.test.php where ROOT might be http://addons.mozilla.org
