1. Enter the PHP container
--------------------------
.. code-block:: bash
host> ./shell.sh
.. seealso:: :ref:`tutorial_work_inside_the_php_container`
2. Create new vhost directory
-----------------------------
.. code-block:: bash
devilbox@php-7.0.20 in /shared/httpd $ mkdir my-photon
3. Install Photon

During the installation you will be asked for the MySQL hostname, username and password. Ensure
not to specify ``localhost``, but instead use ``127.0.0.1`` for the hostname.
Additionally, provide a pair of credentials that has permissions to create a database or create the database
itself beforehand.
.. code-block:: bash
devilbox@php-7.0.20 in /shared/httpd $ cd my-photon
devilbox@php-7.0.20 in /shared/httpd/my-photon $ photon new blog
...What is your mysql hostname? [localhost] 127.0.0.1

devilbox@php-7.0.20 in /shared/httpd/my-photon $ ln -s blog/public/ htdocs
5. DNS record
-------------
If you do not have :ref:`global_configuration_auto_dns` configured, you will need to add the
following line to your host operating systems ``/etc/hosts`` file
(or ``C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc`` on Windows):
.. code-block:: bash
:caption: /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 my-photon.loc
