Moodle quickstart for Debian
----------------------------
USAGE
The application should be available at http://localhost/moodle/ after
install.
If you want to continue with setup and table creation from a remote browser
in another host, you should edit the file /etc/moodle/apache.conf,
removing the comment (#) from the line "allow from all" and restart apache.
Note that if you do not remove this comment (#), no one will have remote
access to your moodle installation and only local users on that
machine will be able to access moodle.
QUICKSTART
DATABASE CREATION
For the correct database and user creation during the package installation
you need to have a database admin account and the password for that account.
In PostgreSQL you should verify that you have the right access policy in
/etc/postgresql/pg_hba.conf.
You should change your PostgreSQL server configuration to use passwords to
authenticate users writing in your /etc/postgresql/pg_hba.conf file:
local all all password
host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 password
Before restarting the postmaster you should check that the admin user
has a password to access the database.
You can do this by executing in a shell while being root:
su - postgres
psql template1
(and inside the psql shell)
ALTER USER postgres password 'new_pass';
\q
For further information about PostgreSQL users and passwords refer to
the documentation available in the postgresql-doc package.
Then, restart the postmaster with /etc/init.d/postgresql restart.
TABLE CREATION
In order to create the database tables you need to point your browser to
http://localhost/moodle/admin . You need to have network access to your
database, you can enable it in /etc/mysql/my.cnf (just comment the
skip-networking line) for MySQL, and in /etc/postgresql/pg_hba.conf
(the above pg_hba example should work) for PostgreSQL.
Remember to restart the database with /etc/init.d/<database> restart if you
change that files.
