== Introduction and Purpose ==

You will install and use a database-backed web application, MediaWiki'''Wordpress''', to show that these services have been installed properly.

# Download the latest .tar.gz version from wodpress.org into your centos3 (use wget).
# Extract it into '''/var/www/html'''
# Now we need to allow Apache to modify the wordpress installation. To do this use chown -R to make the owner and group of every file and directory inside wordpress "apache".
# Check your work so far by pointing your web browser to http://centos3/wordpress/ where you will get an error starting with "There doesn't seem to be a wp-config.php file"
# Copy the wp-config-sample.php file to wp-config.php and edit the new file:
#* Change the DB_NAME, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD to the appropriate values.
# Now go back to http://centos3/wordpress/ - you should see a Wordpress Welcome/Setup page.
#* Set the title to Your Name's Blog. For example for me it would be "Andrew Smith's Blog"
#* Set the password to your learn ID.
#* Set the email to your Seneca email address.
#* Click "Install Wordpress", you should see a "Success!" message.
