WordPress Vagrant Boxes using PHP 5.2

This Vagrant configuration is based off wp-vagrant. I suggest that you check them out if you need to setup WordPress with different versions of PHP.

Configurations Provided

wordpress-php52

• Debian 6.0 (squeeze)
• Apache 2.2 (suPHP, port 80 only)
• PHP 5.2.17 (painstakingly pulled from Dotdeb Lenny repos)
• PHP Extensions: curl, gd, imagick, mcrypt, mysql, xdebug
• PHPUnit 3.6.12
• MySQL 5.1.73
• Subversion 1.6.12, Git 1.7.2.5
• Node.js 0.10.29, Grunt

Getting Started

1. Install both VirtualBox and Vagrant.
2. Clone this repository to a convenient location for your development:
   • git clone https://github.com/easterncoder/wp-php52-vagrant.git
   • cd wp-php52-vagrant
3. Add the following to your hosts file:
   • 192.168.167.9 wordpress.local
4. Start Vagrant: vagrant up

Apache is configured for dynamic vhosts and points to the vhosts directory.

A default wordpress.local is provisioned by default.

To add more vhosts, create a folder in the vhosts directory that matches your hostname. Example, if your hostname is mysite.dev then just create the vhosts/mysite.dev folder and Apache will take care of the rest.

You can reach the default WordPress install at:

• http://wordpress.local/

MySQL Configuration

The MySQL root password is "wordpress", and all boxes come with two pre-configured databases:

• wordpress (this is meant for a regular installation)
• wordpress-tests (this is meant for use with PHPUnit tests)

A single account with rights all databases for convenience:

• Username: wordpress
• Password: wordpress
