Drupal 7 is provided in Ubuntu 12.04. I’ll show you how to get it up and running!
1. Install the package drupal7:
$ sudo apt-get install drupal7
2. Create the following apache site configuration file:
$ sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/drupal7
Alias /drupal7 "/usr/share/drupal7" < Directory /usr/share/drupal7 > Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews < /Directory >
3. Enable the site:
$ sudo a2ensite drupal7
4. Restart apache:
$ sudo service apache2 reload
5. Go to http://myserver.com/drupal7/install.php to complete the installation.
Done! The server alias can of course be changed to anything desired.
