[TYPO3-v4] Status about dummy frontend once 1-2-3 installer is finished?

[Fabien Udriot]

Thanks for the hint.

I sweat at installing the extension... I didn't find any instructions about installation. I guess it 
is still a todo. (or I may be blind.)

Anyway, now I have a working dummy website.

Here my steps:

1. unpack a fresh dummy
2. edit the still blank typo3conf/localconf.php
3. add extension "introduction" at the end of $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['EXT']['extList']
4. install TYPO3 as usually. (Notice the step 4)
5. import into database a dump found 
http://forge.typo3.org/repositories/changes/extension-introduction/trunk/translations/en/introduction.sql
6. Create a default admin user (the previous dump has dropped be_users)

INSERT INTO `be_users` (`uid`,`pid`,`tstamp`,`username`,`password`,`admin`)
VALUES
	(1, 0, 1249112126, 'admin', '5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99', 1);

7. Open the backend in list mode and change HOSTNAME_AND_PATH in record "Typoscript Templates" > "ROOT"
8. Clear the cache, juste in case.

Enjoy! The first glance at the FE is really good :)

But, I guess it will be easier to install in the future...

Best regards,

Fabien
