lakukan copy & extract source code. Jika berada di server lain kita perlu mengcopy-nya terlebih dulu,

scp elgg-1.8.3.zip onno@192.168.0.63:
ssh onno@192.168.0.63

Jika sudah ada lokal kita dapat mengekstrak

sudo su
cp elgg-1.8.3.zip /var/www/
cd /var/www/
unzip elgg-1.8.3.zip
mv /var/www/elgg-1.8.3 /var/www/elgg
mkdir /var/www/data
chown -Rf www-data.www-data /var/www

Edit

vi /var/www/elgg/.htaccess 

isi dengan

RewriteBase /elgg/

Misalnya IP address server adalah 192.168.0.64. Selesaikan dengan mengakses Web ke

http://192.168.0.64/elgg/install.php

ERROR

Jika keluar

The rewrite test failed and the most likely cause is that AllowOverride
is not set to All for Elgg's directory. This prevents Apache from processing
the .htaccess file which contains the rewrite rules.

A less likely cause is Apache is configured with an alias for your Elgg
directory and you need to set the RewriteBase in your .htaccess.
There are further instructions in the .htaccess file in your Elgg directory.

Solusi:

vi /var/www/elgg/.htaccess 

isi dengan

RewriteBase /elgg/
