First thoughts, awesome and thanks. When it came to the Setup wizard I assumed the hostname for the DB would be IP address and actually ended up installing the Desktop because I thought that localhost had to feature in the URL. It does not, you must put it in the web-based wizard!

Please amend the tutorial for that step as it cost me over 3 hrs before I realised the magnitude of my own stupidity.

Other than that superb thanks!

Awesome document! Works like a champ. Rarely do you find documentation that is this idiot proof. Well done.

John Parrish -
“I don’t know if the OP was on the serverip.com server, but the setup wizard is on the localhost, or whatever your server’s name is, but it’s probably not serverip.”

You probably wouldn’t be opening your browser on an ubuntu server. He’s telling you to put the server’s ip address on the machine you are accessing the sever from. If you are opening the browser on the server machine, then you are correct, in that you would use localhost, but for those of us using a headless server and remoting in it would be the ip address of the server.

Important note on final step: go to http://localhost.sugarcrm.index.php, NOT serverip.sugarcrm.index.php. I don’t know if the OP was on the serverip.com server, but the setup wizard is on the localhost, or whatever your server’s name is, but it’s probably not serverip. Otherwise great post! Thanks!

SugarCRM is NOT complete CRM system for businesses of all sizes - by the way since this version does not include a reporting module.

Reporting is integral to daily CRM. I’ve since downloaded Zucker reports which leaves me with zip files as a Linux newbie in Ubuntu, where installation documents and support seem to be weak at best so far.

I followed all the command line instructions to the letter but when I entered the last one i got a message that it could not determine the servername and would use 127.0.1.1 instead, so I have a few Q’s

Is this normal?

When I goto this address in my browser and start the install process I end up with the following error….

The provided database username and/or password is invalid, and a connection to the database could not be established. Please enter a valid user name and password. 2003: Can’t connect to MySQL server on ’127.0.1.1′ (111)).

How do I get round the mysql problem?

What do I need to do to fix this

And pls remember I am a total newbie in Linux terms

Thanks

Awesome! Followed your instructions on Ubuntu 8.1 Desktop edition, works perfectly.

I am in the same boat as Michaugh1, trying to learn how to get the most out of it.

Thanks.

Thanks for posting this. I’ve been really curious about SugarCRM. Has anyone tried this? I’d like to know people’s experiences with it.
