curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
Clone the repository and install the dependencies
git clone [email protected]:Zuluru/Zuluru3.git
cd Zuluru3
composer install
This ensures that various folders are writable by the webserver
HTTPDUSER=`ps aux | grep -E '[a]pache|[h]ttpd|[_]www|[w]ww-data|[n]ginx' | grep -v root | head -1 | cut -d\ -f1`
setfacl -R -m u:${HTTPDUSER}:rwx tmp logs upload
setfacl -R -d -m u:${HTTPDUSER}:rwx tmp logs upload
Configure your web server (Apache, NGINX, IIS, etc.) to point at Zuluru3/webroot
If you don't have a web server installed, you can run CakePHP's command line server:
bin/cake server
Note that this should never be used for a production site!
To run the install process, go to
http://your.domain/installer/install
You will first need to have an empty database created and configured with a login. To date, Zuluru has only been tested on MySQL.
Zuluru has a number of processes that should happen on a daily (or even more often) basis, such as sending roster and attendance emails, opening and closing leagues, deactivating old player profiles, etc. These are handled through a command-line task.
You should set up the following command to be run regularly (every 10 minutes is recommended) by your cron (under Linux/UNIX).
cd /path/to/zuluru && env HTTP_HOST="yourdomain.com" bin/cake scheduler > /dev/null
Note that the /path/to/zuluru will be the folder that contains things like src, config and webroot.
If you have a custom theme set up, your command line should reference it as well:
cd /path/to/zuluru && env DOMAIN_PLUGIN="Xyz" HTTP_HOST= ...
If you are running under Windows, something similar can be set up through the Task Scheduler.
If you get error messages about invalid time zones, you may need to follow the instructions from http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysql-tzinfo-to-sql.html
Ideally, you will never need to update any core Zuluru files. Assuming that this is the case, you should be able to simply update the source with:
git pull
If this gives you errors because you have made changes in files that there are also new changes in, this may work:
git stash
git pull
git stash pop
However, you should do this on a copy of your site instead of the live version, as any conflicts between your changes and those from the main repository will cause errors which will render your site inoperative!
Regardless of which way you do the update, there may be database changes required.
If the pull operation reports any new files under /config/Migrations, you will need to:
bin/cake migrations migrate
bin/cake orm_cache clear
If you're not sure whether this is required, you can just run it; it's harmless if there is nothing to be done. It's good practice to always take a database backup before doing any of this, just in case!
The number of people running Zuluru 1, outside of sites that I control and can do manual updates on, is quite small, so not worth spending the time building an automated upgrade process.
If you need to do such an update, my recommendation would be for you to follow the install instructions above to get Zuluru 3 in a separate directory, and in a fresh database, in order to get the config files you need (.env and app_local.php).
Then, edit the .env to point at your existing database, and change the SECURITY_SALT value to match your existing install (old one will be in /config/core.php).
Then from the command line, in the new folder, run
bin/cake migrations migrate
to bring your existing database up-to-date with the latest changes.
Do a backup of everything first, obviously!
At this point, you should have a functional version of Z3 with all your existing data.
