This is controlled by /etc/memories/apache.conf. + +In order to run Memories you will need to set up a MySQL database +using the schema given in /usr/share/memories/memories.sql and allow +the www-data user permission to delete, insert, select and update in +all the given tables. The following commands should work, if the +database server is on the same computer: + + mysql> create database memories; + mysql> use memories + mysql> source /usr/share/memories/memories.sql + mysql> grant delete,insert,select,update on * to 'www-data'; + mysql> quit + +The configuration file for Memories itself is /etc/memories/Config.pm. +You will almost certainly need to change the 'uri_base' parameter in +this to match your web site configuration. You will also need to +change the 'dsn' parameter if the database name is not 'memories'. + + -- Ben Hutchings Fri, 17 Feb 2006 01:34:47 +0000
