YACS installation
« on: October 13, 2007, 12:13:44 PM »
I would like to use for my websites YACS http://www.yetanothercommunitysystem.com/.
How it can be done? (I am absolute newbie on Linux, so please be patient with me)

I am not asking for exact manual - YACS have good one although for Ubuntu (Surely it will be not too different, will it?)

What I need is to be warned upfront if there are any requirements from SMEserver side.

Situation:
I have fresh installation of SME 7.2 in server only mode (router with firewall acting as gateway for whole network)
no other software on it yet.
I want to install YACS allowing me and other approved users to fully manage websites over browser.
YACS is writen in PHP and need empty MySQL database at server before launching the setup script.
YACS can create tables and populate them, but it cannot create the database itself.
YACS need to be installed with all rights (write, execute etc.)

Hopefully this is all if you need more information please ask.

Thank you.

PS: I read TFM, I really do, and I searched forum for YACS installation -there is nothing about it as far as I know.

This will probably simplify installation onto sme, but also follow any specific config requirements as per YACS documentation.

Thank you Ray Mitchell.

I just installed PHPMyAdmin Multiuser as per http://wiki.contribs.org/Phpmyadminmulti.
Will create new database and after will try to install YACS. Fortunately there is no big hurry and no critical mission content on server. So I can play and try as much as I want. Just time is bit short working approx. 70 hours per week and trying to learn something -big challenge.

Thanks for your reply.
