WordPress Setup – Ubuntu 12.10

Requires a configured web server

1. WordPress was surprisingly simple to setup:

apt-get install wordpress

2. Symlink wordpress to web directory

ln -s /usr/share/wordpress /var/www/wordpress

3. Run setup script. (-n seems to be the database to create and the final option is the domain)

/usr/share/doc/wordpress/examples/setup-mysql -n wordpress domain.com

4. Permissions

chown -R www-data /usr/share/wordpress \
 /var/lib/wordpress \
 /var/www/wordpress 

5. Then to domain.com/wordpress for the web setup
