also i get got an error! Hybridauth Library needs the CURL PHP extension.

Answer 1

Firstly, you need php-curl.. most repo's php installs include this, so it's odd you haven't gotton it. You have specified what OS you're working on, but a quick google search will give you instructions on installing this. If you're working on a RHEL-based system, do;

yum install php-common
yum install php-curl

The former installing all php common packs, and the latter specifically installing curl.

likewise, you'll need to find where application.config.php is - again, on RHEL-based systems, you can run;

find -name application.config.php

- otherwise, find out how to do a system search on the OS you're currently working on. Looks like it's just a standard issue where you haven't defined your mysql information (database name, username, password); once you input these into your application.config.php, you should be good to go.

Best of luck with it.
