  • $ cd Aegir-1.0-RC1
• Install the Aegir CMS packages using repligard:

  • $ repligard -a -i AegirSampleSite.xml.gz
• Change the Aegir CMS host in MySQL host table
  • $ mysql midgard -umidgard -pmidgard
  • mysql> UPDATE host SET name="my.host.name" WHERE name="localhost";
• Set the admin username and password
  • mysql> UPDATE person SET username="admin",password="**password" WHERE id=1;

Note: Aegir CMS needs to be run under a Fully-Qualified Domain Name (FQDN), i.e. www.domain.com or machine.domain.com. Aliases like localhost will not work.

Note: Users who are upgrading from old Aegir CMS betas of Nightly Builds should remove the snippetdir /AegirCore/Localization before installing Aegir CMS 1.0 RC1 to prevent duplicate translation entries from appearing.
