[tenny]

Hello,


those days,

i install and reinstall directadmin on my centos 5.3 64bit,

but i still can not enjoy it well,

can you give me some suggestion ?


#1,
i hope i can run it with suphp for security reason,
i need php5 and mysql5 to run forum and cart.


#2,how do i install
2-1, i know i need install centos 5.3 64bit without checking and install any package.
2-2, i follow the guide http://www.directadmin.com/installguide.html to install da.
2-3, run

# yum update yum
# yum update

and

yum install zip unzip quota dbus which lynx gcc-c++ flex autoconf

2-4, install csf http://www.configserver.com/free/csf/install.txt


do i install those and my server will run directly?
or i need to install any others?


thank you

1. Yes, there should be no problems with suPHP, PHP5&MySQL5
2. yum update is enough (instead of "yum update yum", "yum update"). If you are not sure you have "make" on your system, add "make" to the "yum install "list.

Good luck!

Hello,

thanks for your replay.

if i had install csf and fix all the issue that csf check shows,

should i install update.script again ?

because ido not really know what is the difference between the update.script and da's custombuild.



thank you

It's up to you if you need update.script or not. Update.script is not an alternative for the CustomBuild script, it provides different functions. Read http://directadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=22587 for more information.

I've always done yum update yum before doing yum update because it makes sure that if any RPMs need new functionality in yum, to update, they have it because yum was updated first. It only takes a few seconds.

so,you only do

# yum update yum
# yum update

and

yum install gcc
yum install gcc-c++

and then install dawell ?


thank you
