Port notes
You can find the reference documentation at:
https://sympa-community.github.io/manual/
Check that you have all the required perl modules:
$ ${prefix}/sbin/sympa_wizard.pl --check
First installation:
Review the installation instructions:
https://sympa-community.github.io/manual/install.html
Run the wizard to customize the default configuration files
$ sudo ${prefix}/sbin/sympa_wizard.pl
Create the sympa database and tables using the script for your database at
${prefix}/share/sympa/bin/create_db.*
For example, if using MySQL, the appropriate command is
$ mysql -u root -p < ${prefix}/share/sympa/bin/create_db.mysql
Create a database user with access to the sympa database. This should
match to the parameters db_name, db_host, db_user and db_passwd
in ${prefix}/etc/sympa/sympa.conf.
$ mysql -u root -p
mysql> CREATE USER 'sympa'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'my_password';
mysql> GRANT ALL ON sympa.* TO 'sympa'@'localhost';
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
mysql> quit
Add these lines to the end of ${prefix}/etc/apache2/httpd.conf
# Include module mod_fcgid
Include conf/extra/httpd-fcgid.conf
# Include sympa configuration file
Include conf/extra/httpd-sympa.conf
You should then restart apache2 to enable mod_fcgid and the sympa web interface
$ sudo port unload apache2
$ sudo port load apache2
Start the sympa daemons now and at startup
$ sudo port load sympa
