This script is designed to help you when create a new web site under /opt directory. If you want to create a site under an ibay, do not use this script.
 
The main purpose is to automate the time consuming (and sometimes confusing) process of installing an application to the /opt directory. If you do not use SMESiteMaker you must create the dir, conf files, and DB configs manually from the command line. With SMESiteMaker,  you only have to answer the questions in the wizard.

The script creates the basic environment for your site, such as directory, permissions, apache configuration, add, replace or leave databases and user, and restart the pertinent services. Of course you can edit the final config file (under /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/99SMESiteMaker_yourconfname) to add your own parameters, but generally default is ok.

Purpose

This script is designed to help you when create a new web site under /opt directory. If you want to create a site under an ibay, do not use this script. The main purpose is to automate the time consuming (and sometimes confusing) process of installing an application to the /opt directory. If you do not use SMESiteMaker you must create the dir, conf files, and DB configs manually from the command line. With SMESiteMaker, you only have to answer the questions in the wizard.

The script creates the basic environment for your site, such as directory, permissions, apache configuration, add, replace or leave databases and user, and restart the pertinent services. Of course you can edit the final config file (under /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/99SMESiteMaker_yourconfname) to add your own parameters, but generally default is ok.

Version

smeserver-sitemaker
The latest version of smeserver-sitemaker is available in the SME repository, click on the version number(s) for more information.


Installation

yum --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-sitemaker

Uninstall

The script gives you information and prompts for answers at each step.

Reverting changes

If you make a mistake or want to revert the changes, first remove the directory you choose to locate your site under /opt. Then remove the file /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/99SMESiteMaker_yourconfname. If you create a DB then remove DB and User if they are new and no longer needed.

Finally expand template and restart the service:
