<BR><BR>Joomla is installed in each site's /web directory and is only for that
site. It also has to have access to a MySQL database for it to work.
<BR><BR>You can install it directly in the /home/sites/www.domain.tld/web
directory for that virtual site. Or you can put it in a subdirectory like
/web/cms or /web/joomla and put a PHP pointer for http requests to go into that
subdirectory. I learned that trick can be handy when the customer has
other big software packages they want on their site, like calendar or scheduling
systems. <BR><BR>First create the MySQL database. And create a MySQL
user/password with full access to that database. (PHPMyAdmin makes that
easy when creating a new user - checkmark the box to create a similar named
database at the same time). <BR><BR>Then FTP the Joomla zipfile to the /web
directory and uncompress (or uncompress locally and FTP the whole Joomla
directory tree to the /web directory). You might have to change ownerships
to get it working correctly. From the command-line, go to the site's /web
directory and use "chown apache:site# *". Replace the # with the site
number for that site. <BR><BR>That's all there is to it. Use a browser to
hit that domain's site. The Joomla configuration setup will come up and
lead you through setting up Joomla. <BR><BR>The only other thing I've run into
is occasional permissions problems. I've had to do things like setting
permissions to 777 for Joomla directories like /tmp or /modules - so Joomla can
write into those directories while installing modules. <BR><BR>Good luck.

<BR>> <BR>> Bit of advice please. I need to install Joomla as
a new customer wishes to host a site with us and they currently use this system.
Does Joomla just get installed within a new virtual site on the BO server and if
so, is it accessible by any other virtual site that may want Joomla?
<BR>> <BR>> If anyone has created a How to for the
installation on Blue Onyx, that would be fantastic! <BR>>
<BR>> Thanks <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> Richard
