Install and configure Drupal
Use these steps to configure Apache to support clean URLs in Drupal:
- In your text editor of choice, edit the /etc/apache2/sites/0000_any_80.conf file (not the httpd.conf file you’re probably used to working with).
- Edit the following section:
- Change AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All
Options All +MultiViews -ExecCGI -Indexes -Includes
AllowOverride None
Install Drupal using the documentation at drupal.org
Change Drupal file permissions
Follow these steps to finalize the necessary file permissions after installing Drupal:
- From a Mac on your network, open an SSH connection to your server.
- Enter the following commands from your home directory (be sure to modify the path statements for your specific server):
- chmod 755 /Library/WebServer/Documents/drupal/sites/default
- chmod 444 /Library/WebServer/Documents/drupal/sites/default/settings.php
- chmod -R 777 /Library/Webserver/Documents/drupal/sites/default/files
