WIKI-How-To-Install-On-Ubuntu.md

These steps will install MyImouto and all programs needed on a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. This is a rather quick guide for local use.

Programs that will be installed are: PHP 7.0 MySQL 5.6 NGINX Git Composer Unzip

Most commands need root privileges, so use root user:

sudo su

Add PHP and Git PPAs:

add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php add-apt-repository ppa:git-core/ppa

Update packages:

apt-get update

Install packages and PHP extensions. MySQL will ask for root password, so enter the password you want:

apt-get install -y php7.0-fpm php7.0-xml nginx git imagemagick mysql-server-5.6 php7.0-imagick php7.0-mysql unzip

Install Composer (extracted from its download page):

php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');" php composer-setup.php php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"

Move Composer to make it globally accessible:

mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

Exit root user:

exit

Clone MyImouto repository, then go into the folder:

git clone https://github.com/myimouto/myimouto --depth 1 cd myimouto

Install dependencies:

composer install

Configure NGINX. Open the default configuration file:

sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/default

And paste this either at the bottom or top of the file. Make sure to change /path/to/myimouto/public to the correct path: `server { listen 3000 default_server;

    root /path/to/myimouto/public;

    rewrite "^/(?:data/)?(preview|sample|jpeg|image)/([0-9a-f]{2})([0-9a-f]{2})([0-9a-f]{28})(?:/.*?)?(\.[\w]+)$" /data/$1/$2/$3/$2$3$4$5 last;

    location / {
            try_files $uri /index.php$is_args$query_string;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
            include fastcgi_params;
            fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
    }

}`

By default the maximum file size allowed is only about 2MB.

To increase that limit (for example to 50MB) you have to configure both NGINX and PHP, so open /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and add this inside the http block: client_max_body_size 55M;

Now to configure PHP, open /etc/php/7.0/fpm/php.ini and search for:

post_max_size (around line 656) and set it to 55M

upload_max_filesize (around line 798) and set it 50M

Let's also turn on error display, which will help to debug things if anything goes wrong, so search for display_errors (around line 462) and set it to On.

Reload both NGINX and PHP so changes take effect:

sudo service nginx reload sudo service php7.0-fpm reload

Create a database for MyImouto:

mysql -u root -p (You will be prompted to enter your password) CREATE DATABASE myimouto COLLATE utf8_general_ci; exit

Make a copy of MyImouto config files:

cp config/config.php.example config/config.php cp config/database.yml.example config/database.yml

Set your database username (root) and the password you chose in config/database.yml. If you're accessing the site from a different computer/device, open config/config.php and set $server_host and $url_base accordingly (to check for your local IP run ifconfig).

Run the MyImouto installer:

php install.php

Set permissions to folders. Note that this is NOT the correct way to do this, but for a local installation it doesn't matter:

chmod -R 0777 log tmp sudo chown -R www-data:www-data public/data/
