Editing revision 72 of Drupal

=Common Drupal Procedures= * Drupal 10 is in /etc/drupal/10 ===Set Yer Var=== drupal=10 ===Update drupal=== * download new minor version to, say, /tmp/drupal-7.28.tar.gz * back up: sudo cd /etc/drupal ./backup.sh (this will back up the Drupal code and the databases) untar the release, stripping off the first path element: cd /etc/drupal/${drupal} tar vxf /tmp/drupal-7.72.tar.gz --strip 1 Now put the permissions back, below ===Update Modules=== Before you update the modules you have to change the whole sites/ and modules/ directories to www-data permission: cd /etc/drupal/${drupal}/ chown -R www-data:www-data sites/ modules/ themes/ .. then run the module update code admin--> reports --> updates Now, put the permissions back; fix the permissions so that drupal can write to files/* and install its own modules, but not to the rest. /bin/chown -R daniel:users /etc/drupal/${drupal}/ /bin/chown -R www-data:www-data /etc/drupal/${drupal}/sites/*/files/ \ /etc/drupal/${drupal}/sites/default/ \ /etc/drupal/${drupal}/modules/ and finally, run update.php on all websites :-( ===Create A New Site=== * Point the dns for fruitcake.org and www.fruitcake.org at bonmot.ca * Copy, paste, and modify a file for fruitcake.org in /etc/apache2/sites-available * a2ensite the site name. it will tell you to do an apachectl restart ??? site=fruitcake.org drupal=9 cd /etc/drupal/${drupal}/sites/ mkdir $site cp default/default.settings.php ${site}/settings.php for i in files modules themes ; do mkdir ${site}/${i} ; done chown -R www-data:www-data ${site} Now create the database for it: site_db=fruitcake10 mysqladmin -uroot -proot create $site_db mysql -uroot -proot grant all on $site_db.* to 'drupal'@'localhost' identified by '0EWri3j017cX'; flush privileges; exit You're done. Go to http://fruitcake.org/ and follow the setup wizard, giving it the database info. Now enter theme selection and configuration hell - but that's your problem. ===Create A New Sub Site=== * e.g. for the site http://bonmot.ca/fruitcake/ * Create (or copy & rename) a file in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/bonmot.ca.fruitcake.conf Alias /fruitcake /usr/share/drupal7 * ... and restart apache2 with systemctl reload apache2 * create the database as above * run shellscript above with site=bonmot.ca.fruitcake * cp default/default.settings.php $site/settings.php * chown www-data:www-data $site/settings.php * go to the url and follow the setup wizard, and then into theme hell. ===Slide Shows / Sliders / Slideshows=== Tutorial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ku_97a6Bgkg You need to install this js stuff: https://www.drupal.org/docs/contributed-modules/views-slideshow/installation-requirements ===Backups=== Database backups are in /var/drupal/sites/SITENAME/files/private/backup_migrate/ ===Create A Static Archive=== Follow instructions [https://www.drupal.org/docs/administering-a-drupal-site/creating-a-static-archive-of-a-drupal-site here.] httrack https://solarns.ca -O /local/bonmot/solarns -N "%h%p/%n/index%[page].%t" -WqQ%v --robots=0 --footer '' then get rid of the extra directory level cd /local/bonmot/solarns mv solarns.ca/* ./ mv index/index.html ./ sed -i 's|\.\./||g' index.html # fix relative paths in the index.html ===Cool Features=== User List Page * Install "Views" * Follow the looong list [http://views-help.doc.logrus.com/help/views/example-users-by-role here]. Recently changed pages report * enable "Tracker" built-in module. ===Solar Nova Scotia=== Social Media: Structure --> Blocks --> Custom Block Library --> Social Footer ===2021-06 Install Drupal 9=== create /etc/apache2/sites-available/drupal9.conf a2ensite drupal9 https://bonmot.ca/drupal9/core/install.php ... create the database ===2023-02 Install Drupal 10=== cd /etc/apache2/sites-available/ cp drupal9.conf drupal10.conf (and edit it) a2ensite drupal10 https://bonmot.ca/drupal10/core/install.php ... create the database drupal10 needs php8 at least - we have 8.2 So, need to have multiple versions of PHP running. Test versions with https://bonmot.ca/~denny/old/old_www/b2/phpinfo.php Follow directions here https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-run-multiple-php-versions-on-one-server-using-apache-and-php-fpm-on-debian-10 Needed to install this in most of the apache2 conf files: <FilesMatch \.php$> # For Apache version 2.4.10 and above, use SetHandler to run PHP as a fastCGI process server SetHandler "proxy:unix:/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock|fcgi://localhost" </FilesMatch>
