What is below here is obsolete. We're on a different server now with a different organization and workflow.

This describes the organization of the Drupal sites DLIT has on our test server.

...

  • Each site is located under /webvision-dev/apache2/drupals/ in a directory named with the prefix test. (eg. test.mysite.library.cornell.edu)
    • A new set of sites is coming with the domain suffix test1.library.cornell.edu (eg. http://preservation.test1.library.cornell.edu/ )
      • these have directories in the /webvision-dev/apache2/drupals/ also (eg. preservation.test.library.cornell.edu)
  • Each site has these subdirectories on the server
    • bkp - scripts to backup & restore file system and mysql database for the site, site backups
    • build - scripts to check out modules and themes from Subversion Version Control System (SVN) & place them on the site
    • conf - virtual host configuration file
    • htdocs - web visible site
    • logs - large sticks
  • Your user account on libdev
    • install drush - drupal shell commands
      • put the drush directory in ~/bin so you can find ~/bin/drush/drush.php
    • be a member of the solaris group diglibdev-role
    • install drush module manager
      • put in ~/.drush directory so ~/.drush/drush_mm/README.txt

Desktop

The developer checks out the site from SVN
svn+ssh://your-netid-here@libdev.library.cornell.edu/webvision-dev/svn/sites
onto his/her desktop machine to find this structure:

...

  • ask Enrico Silterra to do the tasks for setting up a new site
    • set up subdomain (eg. mysite.test1.library.cornell.edu)
    • set up directory structure on libdev (eg.  /webvision-dev/apache2/drupals/mysite)
    • create mysql database and user for Drupal
    • install drupal core files and doctor sites/default/settings.php to include user/password/db for this site
    • create subversion directory for the site under Drupal-Sites
    • get CUWebAuth set up if necessary
  • go to the site and run the Drupal install (eg. http://mysite.test1.library.cornell.edu/install.php)
  • you may need to update the Drupal core if it's out of date
  • check out Drupa-Sites/mysite.library.cornell.edu from SVN
  • add whatever modules you need to site.manifest
  • webvision.manifest should only have modules/cul_common (other webvision modules are out of date)
  • check in your changes to Drupa-Sites/mysite.library.cornell.edu
  • do the 'Update a site on the test server' procedure
  • add a line to /webvision-dev/apache2/drupals/crons/testcrons

Update Drupal Core

  • get a copy of the latest production version of drupal extracted onto your disk from http://drupal.org/
  • backup the file system and database as outlined in 'Update a site on the test server' procedure
  • log in to Drupal site as user #1
  • put the site in off-line maintenance mode /admin/settings/site-maintenance
  • disable all the non-essential modules
    • go to the htdocs directory
    • use this to check which are enabled:
      • drush mm list
      • Panel
