INSTALLING MOJOMOJO

Step 1

Install MojoMojo either using the cpan shell like this:

   cpan MojoMojo 

or by downloading the tarball from http://search.cpan.org/dist/MojoMojo and running perl Makefile.PL on it manually.

Step 2

mojomojo.conf is the main configuration file and is in Config::General format.

First make sure your config file has a valid dsn for your database (You can use SQLite, mysql or Pg - sqlite by default). The setting you change is connect_info in the Model::DBIC Block.

For instance, for MySQL: - dbi:mysql:database=mojo_database;host=localhost, mojo_user, password or for SQLite: - dbi:SQLite:__HOME__/db/sqlite/mojomojo.db

Once the db is setup, import the table structure, by running the following script:

./script/mojomojo_spawn_db.pl

Step 3

Do one of these:

Catalyst includes a test server which can be started using:

./script/mojomojo_server -p 3000

where 3000 is the port number and the default if no port is specified. Note that if you install it through the cpan shell, mojomojo_server will be found in your bin directory. or alternatively:

Set up Apache using either mod_perl or FastCGI.

See http://search.cpan.org/dist/Catalyst/lib/Catalyst/Manual/Cookbook.pod#Using_FastCGI for further information on FastCGI, or you can look at Catalyst::Engine::Apache for info on setting up Catalyst apps in Apache.

If your server is connected to a http proxy you may need to add the following line to the main config block:

using_frontend_proxy 1

Step 4

There is no step four. Have fun exploring MojoMojo, the default login/pass is admin/admin.
