We have used Mac OS X on this video for Installing Joomla on Rackspace Cloud Sites Video Guide, except the GUI, Windows PC users will not suffer from any issue. Plus the softwares are actually the same. If you have looked at the guide on how to Install Magento on Rackspace Cloud Sites, to add your domain / subdomain in Rackspace Cloud Sites account and Create a MySQL Database. We will not do unnecessary repeat as it is obvious that anyone can understand the basics from that guide for Installing Joomla on Rackspace Cloud Sites to :
- Create a Database
- Upload unzipped folder of the Joomla using WinSCP or FileZilla. We have used ported version of WinSCP on Mac. You will notice on the video that I have joked when command + A to select all the folders and files has not worked. It took CTRL + A in Mac !
Just copy the details of your database in any text file and actually ponting towards the FTP root where you have uploaded the Joomla! unzipped contents will initiate the installation wizard. Anyone can perform it, its quite easy to fill the wizard based form.
