Experimenting with Drupal 7 under CentOS 7

Install httpd, mariadb and php, start httpd and mariadb, and create a database with UTF-8 character set.

Download the two files Drupal core and Drupal translations from the official Drupal website: drupal-7.34.tar.gz, drupal-7.34.zh-hans.po.

<code>tar xzvf drupal-7.34.tar.gz
cd drupal-7.34</code>

Copy all files to the web directory, including 2 hidden files.

<code>cp -R * /var/www/html
cp .gitignore .htaccess /var/www/html</code>

Put the Simplified Chinese language pack where it should be.

<code>cp drupal-7.34.zh-hans.po /var/www/html/profiles/standard/translations/</code>

Create settings.php file.

<code>cp /var/www/html/sites/default/default.settings.php /var/www/html/sites/default/settings.php</code>

Add write permissions to the settings.php file and default folder.

<code>chmod a+w /var/www/html/sites/default/settings.php
chmod a+w /var/www/html/sites/default/</code>

Prevent SELinux from causing trouble.

<code>chcon -R -t httpd_sys_content_rw_t /var/www/html/sites/default</code>

Browse http://localhost to start the installation. After the installation is completed, change the permissions back.

<code>chmod a-w /var/www/html/sites/default/settings.php
chmod +w /var/www/html/sites/default/settings.php
chmod a-w /var/www/html/sites/default/
chmod +w /var/www/html/sites/default/</code>

The above is an introduction to testing Drupal 7 under CentOS 7, including the relevant aspects. I hope it will be helpful to friends who are interested in PHP tutorials.
