1. Download Drupal 7
from drupal.org
2. Install Drupal
in Sites, or in Library/WebServer/Documents. Access the former as http://localhost/~username and the latter as http://localhost.
3. Turn on Web Sharing
Open System Preferences / Sharing, turn on Web Sharing.
4. Make sure php can run.
Edit your /etc/apache2/httpd.conf and make sure this line is not commented out:
LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so
(In an OS X Server install, Open Server Admin / Web / Settings / Modules / and enable php5_module.)
5. Restart Apache.
If you made changes to the Apache config file above, re-start Apache:
% sudo apachectl restart
6. Download MySQL
from http://www.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
7. Configure MySQL
per the instructions here. This tells you how to do the install, create an XML launchd config file, create a MySQL config files that is appropriate for OS X, with the right path, and start up MySQL. The startup didn't work until I changed some permissions. I think I did:
% sudo chmod 666 /usr/local/mysql/data/*logfile*and maybe% sudo chmod 775 /usr/local/mysql/data
or something like that. Then I started it by hand:
% /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe
8. Assign root passwords.
By default, MySQL root passwords are empty. More info here. Set root passwords:
[Scottys-MacBook-Air:local/mysql/bin] scotty% !30 -u root
mysql -u root
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 2

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the current input statement.
mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('Freeer2');
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql>
% /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql -u root
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.
[snip...]
mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('newpassword');Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)mysql> SELECT User, Host, Password FROM mysql.user;+------+---------------------------+-------------------------------------------+ | User | Host | Password | +------+---------------------------+-------------------------------------------+ | root | localhost | some-encrypted-password | | root | Scottys-MacBook-Air.local | | | root | 127.0.0.1 | | | root | ::1 | | | | localhost | | | | Scottys-MacBook-Air.local | | +------+---------------------------+-------------------------------------------+ 6 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Now set the rest of the root passwords using the same command.
Be careful if you are doing this on an existing install instead of a new one! There is only one root user for all databases in a MySQL instance, and changing an existing root password may cause other sites with a different root password not to be able to access their database, and return a "site offline" error. Instead, consider creating a different admin user than root.
9. Create a new database.
Create new database named "scotty":
% mysqladmin -u root create scotty -p
Enter password:
%
10. Run the Drupal installer.
Run the Drupal installer from a browser. This assumes the Drupal folder is in the Sites folder and is called drupal-7.17.
http://localhost/~scotty/drupal-7.17/install.php
