In this tutorial I will show you how to setup a OroCommerce on a server.

For this tutorial I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and php 5.

Install apache, Mysql and NodeJS

sudo su

apt-get update

apt-get install php5

apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-php5

apt-get install mysql-server

apt-get install nodejs

Install php5 dependencies

1	apt-get install php5-{gd,curl,intl,json,mcrypt,mysql,readline,tidy}

Php5 Configuration

open /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and /etc/php5/cli/php.ini make the following changes.

1 2	date.timezone = Asia/Kolkata # set your timezone memory_limit = 768M # Minimum 512 Mb required

Enable php5 mcrypt extension

1	php5enmod mcrypt

Configure Database

mysql -u root -p

create database oro_commerce;

create user 'oro_commerce'@'%' identified by 'oro_commerce';

grant all privileges on oro_commerce.* to 'oro_commerce'@'%';

flush privileges;

quit;

Download and Install composer

php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"

php -r "if (hash_file('SHA384', 'composer-setup.php') === 'c32408bcd017c577ce80605420e5987ce947a5609e8443dd72cd3867cc3a0cf442e5bf4edddbcbe72246a953a6c48e21') { echo 'Installer verified'; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt'; unlink('composer-setup.php'); } echo PHP_EOL;"

php composer-setup.php --install-dir=/bin --filename=composer

php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"

Download orocommerce data from git

apt-get install git

cd /var/www/

git clone --recursive -b 1.0.0-beta.5 https://github.com/orocommerce/orocommerce-application.git

cd orocommerce-application

composer install

If some of the php dependencies are missing composer will give us error. You need to install the php extensions. If everything is fine, then composer install will run successfully. It will ask for some configuration parameter. You can change the parameter later in app/config/parameters.yml file.

sometime you will get error like this.

To resolve the issue, you need to run the command

1 2	composer global require fxp/composer-asset-plugin:1.2.2 composer install

Virtual Host Configuration

My web directory is /var/www/orocommerce-application/web

open /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/orocommerce.conf

# You can give any servername

ServerName orocommerce.example.com

DirectoryIndex app.php

DocumentRoot /var/www/orocommerce-application/web

Options FollowSymLinks

Require all granted

AllowOverride all

</Directory>

ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/orocrm_error.log

CustomLog /var/log/apache2/orocrm_access.log combined

</VirtualHost>

Change file ownership and permission

chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/orocommerce-application/

find /var/www/orocommerce-application/ -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;

find /var/www/orocommerce-application/ -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;

Restart the apache service

1 2	a2enmod rewrite service apache2 restart

Open your /etc/hosts file and add the entry for your server name.
