Debian 8.2 and Drupal7



As an introduction, I have a basic install of Drupal7 on a minimal
Debian computer (system utilities only, with dependencies provided
through Aptitude) without a graphic interface. Where I'm trying to get
to is the installation of a Drupal package.

I can browse to the Apache start page with http://<site ip> on my local
network at this point.

>From the Debian wiki, for setting up a single site/application, I get an
error message when I issue the line:

ln -s /etc/drupal/7/apache2.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d/drupal7.conf

which is due the the fact, apparently, that the soft link exists (from
/etc/apache2/conf-available as:

/etc/apache2/conf-available/drupal7.conf -> ../../drupal/7/apache2.conf

Next I issue the lines of:

a2enconf drupal7

service apache2 reload

And get  no error message

When I browse to http://<site>/drupal7, I get an error page from
Drupal7.  The first part reads:

PDOException: SQLSTATE[42S02]: Base table or view not found: 1146 Table
'drupal7.semaphore' doesn't exist: SELECT expire, value FROM {semaphore}
WHERE name = :name; Array ( [:name] => variable_init ) in
lock_may_be_available() (line 167 of
/usr/share/drupal7/includes/lock.inc).PDOException: SQLSTATE[42S02]:
Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'drupal7.semaphore' doesn't
exist: SELECT expire, value FROM {semaphore} WHERE name = :name; Array (
[:name] => variable_init ) in lock_may_be_available() (line 167 of
/usr/share/drupal7/includes/lock.inc).

How do I fix it?

Second question. If I am installing a single application under Drupal7
(CiviCRM is the package), what directory/subdirectory should I unzip
CiviCRM into to start? CiviCRM makes its own directory structure and
includes a web-based installer if you unzip it to a specific location.

Third question. What is the brower URL for that location? In other
words, after unpack CiviCRM, I need to browse to that web-based
installer. What would that URL start with?


TIA for any assistance you can provide.
