How to install wordpress

Sometimes it is necessary to install a wordpress instance (for example in a VBOX for testing) and set it as a clone of the current remeis home page. Notes on how this is done are collected here

  • Install apache2, mysql-server, php, and php-curl php-gd php-mbstring php-xml php-xmlrpc php-soap php-intl php-zip
  • Create database on new location (if necessary), dump old database, replace all old addresses with new! Otherwise multisite will not find the correct tables. mysqldump comes in handy.
  • Copy website over (that is, everything in wordpress_multisite
  • change config to access new database
  • Important: enable rewrite module 'a2enmod rewrite' otherwise links will not work.

After this is done, fire up the web server and see if things are working!
