Installation 05 Database Setup

We now need to use Doctrine to set up the tables (schema).

Setting the Application Environment

A lot of the tools in bin/ make use of bin/utils.inc which reads the application environment (APPLICATION_ENV) from public/.htaccess and this environment should correspond to the section in application/config/application.ini that you wish to use (e.g. production, development, etc).

Even if you plan to set these details in an Apache virtual host configuration, create this .htaccess file anyway so utils.inc can read the intended environment:

cp public/.htaccess.dist public/.htaccess

and then edit as appropriate.

Creating the Schema

If everything is set up correctly, the following (assuming you are in the bin/ directory) should created your database:

./doctrine2-cli.php orm:schema-tool:create
ATTENTION: This operation should not be executed in a production environment.

Creating database schema...
Database schema created successfully!

If it fails, please contribute to the Possible Errors section below.

Possible Errors

Script fails with "PHP Fatal error: Class 'Memcache' not found in ..."

# ./doctrine2-cli.php orm:schema-tool:create
PHP Fatal error:  Class 'Memcache' not found in /usr/local/ixp/library/OSS-Framework.git/OSS/Resource/Doctrine2cache.php on line 101

Fatal error: Class 'Memcache' not found in /usr/local/ixp/library/OSS-Framework.git/OSS/Resource/Doctrine2cache.php on line 101

Answer: Install the memcache extension module for PHP5 and try again.

Example (for Ubuntu/Debian):

apt-get install php5-memcache
