Install bugzilla in Solaris 10

Posted September 23, 2006 * Comments(1)

First of all i’ve to say that i love Solaris and the other UNIX variants like GNU/Linux, but sometimes i love the easy way of Mac OSX or Windows installations too.

The first thing i did is install Solaris 10 in a x86 machine, the version i’ve used is the last one (at this time 10 6/6) and have a lot of open source software out-of-the-box like MySQL, Apache, Perl …

MySQL

I think it was one of the easiest steps of whole process. There are a file in /etc/sfw/mysql called README.solaris.mysql that explaint the entire installation.

/usr/sfw/bin/mysql_install_db
groupadd mysql
useradd -g mysql mysql
chgrp -R mysql /var/mysql
chmod -R 770 /var/mysql
installf SUNWmysqlr /var/mysql d 770 root mysql
cp /usr/sfw/share/mysql/my-medium.cnf /var/mysql/my.cnf
/etc/sfw/mysql/mysql.server start

Check the file, maybe in you version there are more steps.

Apache 2

Just copy /etc/apache2/httpd.conf-example into /etc/apache2/httpd.conf and try:

svcadm enable apache2

Now check in your browser thar Apache is serving properly.

Maybe someday i continue this history … sorry
