Manual installation on a Linux/UNIX based system

The requirements for doing a manual installation must be met. Please read the requirements page if you're not sure about the requirements. Proceed only if you have access to a UNIX based environment with Apache, PHP, MySQL or PostgreSQL already installed and running. As mentioned earlier, the database server may run on a different computer than the web server. A manual installation consists of the following steps:

  • Setting up a database (MySQL or PostgreSQL)
  • Downloading eZ Publish
  • Unpacking eZ Publish
  • Manual configuration of eZ Publish

The only difference between a normal and a manual installation is the last step. Instead of running the web based setup wizard, eZ Publish is manually configured by editing a couple of files. The first three steps are explained under the "Installing eZ Publish on a Linux/UNIX based system" section. The last step is explained under the "Manual configuration of eZ Publish" section.
