Steps to install Magento2
Change the directory where to download and install Magento2.
# cd /var/www/
Download the magento2 zip file from github
# wget https://github.com/magento/magento2/archive/develop.zip
# unzip develop.zip
# mv magento2-develop magento2
Change the ownership to your webserver user name. Typically it is www-data
# chown -R www-data:www-data magento2
# cd magento2
Change the permissions as follows,
# find . -type d -exec chmod 700 {} \;
# find . -type f -exec chmod 600 {} \;
make the file magento file executable in the directory bin
# chmod +x bin/magento
Install magento using command line,
# ./bin/magento setup:install –base-url “http://your_site_url/” –db-name “magentodbname” –db-user “magentodb” –db-password “magentodbpasswd” –admin-firstname “yourname” –admin-lastname “yourlastname” –admin-email “your_email” –admin-user “magenoadmi” –admin-password “magentoadminpasswd” –language “en_US” –currency “USD” –timezone “America/Chicago” –use-sample-data –use-rewrites=1
Here you will get your Language, Currency and Time zone using the following magento command.
Language:
# ./bim/magento info:language:list
Currency:
# ./bim/magento info:currency:list
Time Zone:
# ./bim/php magento info:timezone:list
Once the installation is completed you will get the SUCCESS message at the end of installation.
You can access the magento admin interface using the random generated URL while installing Magento2.
You can check the URL using magento command line.
# ./bin/magento info:adminuri
You will get the admin URI as,
Admin URI: /admin_8mdvzn
You can change the the Admin URI in <your Magento install dir>/app/etc/env.php.
Then you can access admin page as http://yuor_site_url/admin_8mdvzn/
You can access the magento2 home page at the installed URL as http://yuor_site_url.
It will look as below,
