Edmonton Website Repair and Website Migration

• LDAP integration with Drupal
• Drupal Migration
• Troubleshooting Drupal 6.10, MySql 5.0.24 and PHP 5.2.13
• Test environment setup in order to test upgrading Drupal

Here are the instructions for creating a new blank site for testing
purposes:

* create a new blank database using phpmyadmin - remember the name
* in IIS create a new folder called drupal2 in the original drupal
root directory - this way we should be able to access it at
http://localhost:9000/drupal2.......
* download drupal and un-zip into the drupal2 folder
* go to drupal2/sites/default and copy "default.settings.php" and
create a new file called "settings.php" from the copy.
* open the "settings.php" file just created and edit the "$db_url ="
line to reflect your new database.  Database user name and
password should be the same as before
* go to drupal2/sites/all and create new folders called "modules"
and "themes"
* download the ldap module and unzip to the
drupal2/sites/all/modules folder
* use Internet Explorer to navigate to
http://localhost:9000/drupal2/install.php and follow the instructions:
o choose "install in English", then it should skip down to
"configure site" (if all goes well),
o fill in the required info...
+ site name should be something different/recognizable
+ create the admin user/password
* it should automatically log you in as the admin user
* go to Administer, Site Building, Modules, and enable the ldap
authentication module, and save configuration at the bottom of the
screen
* check Administer, User Management, Permissions for any ldap module
permissions
* then input the required ldap settings (I believe it is under Site
Configuration, ldap ??) and test...hopefully should authenticate
* then logout, and try to login as a ldap user
