Getting started
Getting started with adva cms is pretty simple.
You can download the source like this:
git clone git://github.com/svenfuchs/adva_cms.git
Make sure you have Rails 2.1 installed or freeze it to vendor/rails using rake rails:freeze after downloading the code. Then just go to the adva_cms directory, copy the database config file and run the migrations like so:
cd adva_cms cp config/database.yml.example config/database.yml rake db:migrate:all
Then start your server
script/server
and point your browser to http://localhost:3000.
You should then see the initial install screen and you’re up and running.
By default adva cms will use SQLite as a db (just like any fresh Rails application) which is great for toying around. Optionally tweak config/database.yml (e.g. for MySQL) and run rake db:create, then continue as above.
