00:06 | In this tutorial, we will learn to download and install Drupal on Ubuntu Linux and Windows operating systems. |
00:17 | For this tutorial, you will need -
A working Internet connection to install the latest version from the web or you may be provided with the required local files. |
00:30 | You should also have a machine installed with either Ubuntu Linux or Windows Operating System. |
00:38 | To follow this tutorial, you should be familiar with either of the mentioned operating systems. |
00:45 | There are many ways to install Drupal. |
00:48 | For this tutorial. I will use Bitnami Drupal Stack as this is a very simple installation method. |
00:57 | To install Bitnami Drupal Stack, you will need:
Intel x86 or compatible processor |
01:05 |
Minimum of 256 MB RAM |
01:08 |

Any 32-bit Windows operating system such as Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2012. |
01:41 |
Any OS X operating system x86. |
01:46 | Let’s open our preferred web browser and go to the URL shown. |
01:53 | Scroll down and check installers for Windows and Linux operating systems. |
02:01 | You have to choose the installer as per your operating system. |
02:06 | As I am a Linux user, I will choose the Linux installer. |
02:11 | If you are a Windows user, choose the Drupal installer for Windows. |
02:17 | Here, we can see all the different versions of Drupal. |
02:22 | If you are unsure about which version to download, you can download the "Recommended" version. |
02:29 | At the time of this recording, Drupal 8.1.3 is the Recommended version. |
02:36 | It could be different when you try. |
02:39 | Click on the Download button at the right hand side. |
02:43 | A popup window appears prompting us to create an account in Bitnami website. |
02:50 | For now, click on “No thanks”. |
02:53 | Immediately, it will start downloading the installer. Click on OK button to save the file. |
03:01 | The following installation steps are same for the Windows and Linux OS. |
03:07 | If you have been provided with Bitnami installer files, use one of that instead of downloading. |
03:15 | Open your Downloads folder where the installer file has been downloaded. |
03:20 | To run this installer file, we should have admin access. |
03:25 | If you are a Windows user, right click on the installer file. And then select Run as administrator option. |
03:33 | If you are a Linux user, right click on the installer file and select Properties. |
03:40 | Then click on Permissions tab and click on the check-box of Allow executing file as program option. |
03:48 | Click on Close button to close this window. |
03:52 | Now, double-click on the installer file. |
03:55 | The installation starts now. Click on the Next button. |
04:01 | Here, we can select the components that we want to install. |
04:06 | Click on each component and read the detailed information about them first. |
04:12 | I prefer to have all the components selected. Click on Next button. |
04:18 | In this window, we have to choose the folder where we want to install Drupal. |
04:24 | I will choose my Home folder. |
04:27 | In Windows, it will be installed by default in C colon or the main drive. |
04:34 | Click on Next button. |
04:36 | Now, we have to create a Drupal admin account. |
04:40 | I will type the real name as "Priya". This name will be displayed in the application. |
04:47 | Please type your own name here. |
04:50 | In the Email Address field, I will type "priyaspoken@gmail.com". |
04:56 | Please use your own valid email address. |
05:00 | Next, we have to give our preferred username and password for the administrator. |
05:07 | In Login user name, I will type "admin". |
05:11 | In Password, I will type a password. Re-type the password for confirmation. |
05:17 | You can type any login name and password as per your choice. |
05:22 | Click on the Next button. |
05:24 | In Linux, the default listening port for Apache is 8080 and for MySQL it is 3306. |
05:34 | In Windows, it is 80 and 3306. |
05:39 | If those ports are already in use by other applications, it will prompt for alternate ports to use. |
05:47 | I have already installed MySQL on my machine. So, it prompts for an alternate port. |
05:54 | I will give 3307. |
05:57 | Click on the Next button. |
05:59 | Now, we have to give a name to our Drupal site. I will type the name as Drupal 8. |
06:06 | You can give any name as per your choice. |
06:10 | Click on the Next button. |
06:12 | Here, it asks us for Bitnami Cloud Hosting. For now, I do not want this. |
06:19 | So, click on the check-box to deselect it. |
06:23 | Then click on the Next button. |
06:26 | Now, Drupal is ready to be installed. Click on the Next button. |
06:31 | It could take several minutes to complete the installation. |
06:36 | Once the installation is finished, make sure the Launch Bitnami Drupal Stack is checked. |
06:43 | Then click on the Finish button. |
06:46 | Bitnami Drupal Stack control window opens up automatically. |
08:57 | Next, let's see how to access the Bitnami Drupal Stack control window. |
09:03 | If you are a Linux user, please follow these steps. |
09:07 | Switch to File browser. |
09:10 | Then in the left sidebar, click on Home under Places. |
09:15 | Now, double-click on drupal hyphen 8.1.3 hyphen 0 folder from the list. |
09:23 | Here, you can find the manager hyphen linux hyphen x64.run file. Double-click on it to open. |
09:33 | If you are a Windows user, go to Start Menu -> All Programs -> Bitnami Drupal Stack -> Bitnami Drupal Stack Manager Tool. |
09:44 | Bitnami Drupal Stack control window will be open. |
09:48 | Everytime when you open Drupal, please check whether all the servers are running. |
06:51 | Click on Manage Servers tab to see all the running services. |
06:56 | Here we can see that MySQL Database and Apache Web Server are running now. |
07:02 | Note that to work on Drupal, we need a database such as MySQL, PostgreSQL or Oracle |
07:11 | and a web server such as Apache or Nginx. |
07:16 | By default, Bitnami Drupal Stack comes with MySQL database and Apache web server. |
07:23 | Let’s switch back to the control window. |
07:26 | We can start, stop and restart the services by clicking on the appropriate buttons. |
07:33 | Let's click on the Welcome tab. |
07:36 | To start Drupal, click on Go to Application button on the right hand side. |
07:42 | The browser opens up automatically with the bitnami page. |
07:46 | Now, click on Access Drupal link. We are redirected to our Drupal website. |
07:54 | Notice that the website name is Drupal 8. |
07:58 | To login to the website, click on Log in link at the top right corner. |
08:03 | Let’s type our user name and password which we created earlier. |
08:11 | Now, click on the Login button. |
08:14 | In the address bar, we can see the web address of our website http://localhost:8080/drupal/user/1. |
08:27 | In the next tutorial, we will learn what is /user/1. |
08:32 | Instead of this localhost, it may show you 127.0.0.1, based on your system configuration. |
08:42 | Next time onwards, we can access Drupal using the web address:
localhost colon 8080 slash drupal or localhost slash drupal, if Apache is listening on port 80. |
09:54 | With this, we come to the end of this tutorial. |
09:57 | Let us summarize. In this tutorial, we have learnt about Installation of Drupal on Ubuntu Linux and Windows operating systems. |
