Installing Magento eCommerce in Ubuntu 10.10

In this video I download and configure the Magento eCommerce package in Ubuntu 10.10. Before following this video, you must have the LAMP server and phpmyadmin configured. Throughout the video I create a database for Magento using phpmyadmin. I also modify the hosts file, adding a domain name record. A few folders in the Magento package need folder permissions changed. I also have to install php5-curl. IF YOU ARE USING THIS SERVER AS A LIVE WEB SERVER BE SURE TO SET THE PERMISSIONS FOR THE /VAR/WWW BACK TO 755. For more information visit lecturesnippets.com
