Comments on Installing SugarCRM Community Edition On Ubuntu 8.10

Installing SugarCRM Community Edition On Ubuntu 8.10 SugarCRM is a webbased CRM solution written in PHP. SugarCRM is available in different flavours called "Editions" ("Community" (free), "Professional", and "Enterprise"). In this tutorial I will describe the installation of the free Community Edition on Ubuntu 8.10. With the modules My Portal, Calendar, Activities, Contacts, Accounts, Leads, Opportunities, Cases, Bugtracker, Documents and Email, SugarCRM Community Edition offers everything that can be expected from a CRM solution.

Great job as usual.

Installs fine on 9.04 and the latest version of SugarCRM is SugarCE-5.2.0e.zip

 

Thanks again.

Thank you for the instructions!  I just followed them to install SugarCRM CE 6.1.0 on Ubuntu 9.10 and it seems to have worked.

Just a couple tips:

The SugarCRM CE 6.1.0 installation now recommends setting the PHP memory limit to 96M in php.ini:

memory_limit = 96M

The version 6.1.0 zip file includes a ".htaccess" file that will not be copied to the /var/www/sugarcrm/ directory using your commands.  Instead, perhaps it would be cleaner to use something like the following:

cd /var/www
unzip /tmp/SugarCE-*.zip
mv SugarCE-Full-* /var/www/sugarcrm
chown -R www-data: sugarcrm

This way even the "hidden" files in the root of the unzipped directory end up in the installed webdir.

All,

There are steps missing here.

I had to do:

addgroup sugarcrm

before executing the:

chown -R www-data: sugarcrm

As was getting "None existant group" errors:

Even after all that, when I run the istall.php I get tons of permission errors. I do not know what the program wants so can not correct the problems. Will post on the Sugar Forum to see what is required. Thanks! OMR
