Build a PHPBB2 Forum In debian

Set up the PHPBB2 forum under debian-Linux Enterprise Application-Linux server application information. The following is a detailed description. Recently, a PHPBB2 forum system has been established in DEBIAN. It is very convenient to establish a PHPBB2 forum system. The following describes the creation process:

System: DEBIAN4.0
Environment: apache2 php5 mysqlserver

1. Install PHPBB2
Apt-get install phpbb2

2. Download PHPBB2 source code from the Internet
I downloaded phpBBcn. winrar. you should search for many resources online.

3. Use your MYSQL user account and password to log on to MYSQL and create a database: phpbb2

4. decompress the downloaded PHPBB2 source code to your website directory (you can decompress it under WINDOWS and find it... \ phpbb2 \ phpBBcn \ phpBB2020cn: Decompress the directory phpBB2020, name phpBB2020 phpbb2, and upload it to the website directory of your LINUX server. If your apache2 does not modify the default configuration, you can put the file in the/var/www/directory. Here, you can store the file according to your own needs and configurations .)

5. Change the config. php file permission in the phpbb2 directory of the uploaded file. Run the following command:
Chmod 666 config. php
Chown nobody config. php

6. After completing the above operations, directly use the browser for installation and configuration.
Http ://? Address/phpbb2
In this case, the installation configuration diagram will appear, all of which are graphic interfaces. You should be able to understand the configuration. You need to enter some information, languages, and so on. Configure your own. Select a Chinese language. Your database should be of MySQL 3.x or later. Select complete installation. Enter the database name localhost or your own configuration. But mostly use localhost. Enter your database name (in fact, the name of the database you just created) phpbb2 (the first step has been set up), database user account and password, that is your own. Haha. The following system administrator verification is not required. After entering the information, click the start installation button at the bottom. If the installation is complete, a prompt is displayed. (For example, your system administrator account has been created...) to complete the installation. But you also need to delete the two directories in your phpbb2 directory, install and contrib.

7. Modify the config. php file permission in the phpbb2 directory to ensure security.

# Chmod 644 config. php

# Chown root config. php

File: phpBBcn.rar

8. Well, your PHPBB2 forum has been established in this way. It's easy. Now you can manage your forum. It's all web pages, not to mention. Go to http ://? Address/phpbb2 go to manage your forum.
