Joomla : Content Managemet System Installation Guide :
- Download the current zip file from the Joomla Official Website here.
- Since Joomla is a complete website package we will be uploading the files to the root folder.
You can upload Joomla files to the web server using a FTP client. For FTP upload instructions, please click here.
For this example, Joomla will be uploaded to the root folder /var/www/html/ and the website address will be http://www.yourdomain.com/* Please be advised that if you have an existing website you may either want to back it up to a folder or download it to your local computer. Since, when you install Joomla in the root folder it will over write any existing files that it needs to.
- Run the install script on your server by going to http://www.yourdomain.com/installation with your web browser, replace yourdomain.com with your actual domain and follow the instructions.
