Install a SugarCRM

Install a SugarCRM Organic Design procedure

Go through the Download Wizard. Everything is quite self-explanatory except for the initial question which should be set to "Community Edition", and make sure you select "yes" when it asks if you already have Apache, PHP and MySQL. The wizard results in a link to the current version to download.

Shell in to the server and wget the download and unzip it, rename it to an appropriate name (such as the clients company name) and place it in /var/www/domains. The files should be mode 755 and owned by www-data, eg:

chmod -R 755 company-abc-crm
chown -R www-data:www-data company-abc-crm

A virtual host rewrite rule is needed to map a sub-domain (probably crm.company-domain to the new installation files, see Set up a new domain name for details.

The web-based install can now be run by going to the sub-domain in a browser. Again everything is pretty self-explanatory, except that the host setting is set to the domain name but should be changed to localhost. The database user should be the same as all the wiki's which on the main server is bender.
