Kleeja is an open source file upload management system that allows you to upload, organize, and share your files with others. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Kleeja on Arch Linux.
Before we begin, make sure that your Arch Linux server meets the following requirements:
To install Kleeja on Arch Linux, you need to install some required packages, including PHP modules and MySQL database driver. To install them, run the following command:
sudo pacman -S php php-gd php-mysql mariadb
You can download the latest version of Kleeja from its official website. You can also use the following command to download it directly to your server:
wget https://github.com/kleeja/kleeja/releases/download/v3.0.14/kleeja-3.0.14.zip
Once the download is complete, extract the ZIP file using the following command:
unzip kleeja-3.0.14.zip
Kleeja requires a database to store its data. In this step, we will set up a database for Kleeja using MariaDB.
First, start MariaDB service using the following command:
sudo systemctl start mariadb
Then, secure your MariaDB installation by running the following command and following the prompts:
sudo mysql_secure_installation
Once the secure installation is complete, log in to the MariaDB console using the following command:
sudo mysql -u root -p
Create a new database for Kleeja using the following command:
CREATE DATABASE kleeja;
Create a new user and grant it full access to the database using the following commands:
CREATE USER 'kleeja_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'your_password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON kleeja.* TO 'kleeja_user'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION;
Make sure to replace your_password with a strong password.
In this step, we will create a new Apache virtual host for Kleeja.
Create a new Apache configuration file for Kleeja using the following command:
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/extra/kleeja.conf
Add the following content to the file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName yourdomain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/kleeja
<Directory /var/www/kleeja>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/kleeja_error_log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/kleeja_access_log common
</VirtualHost>
Make sure to replace yourdomain.com with your actual domain name.
Save and close the file by pressing Ctrl+X, Y, and Enter.
Copy the extracted Kleeja files to the document root directory of your Apache virtual host:
sudo cp -r kleeja-3.0.14/* /var/www/kleeja/
Set proper ownership and permissions on the Kleeja directory:
sudo chown -R http:http /var/www/kleeja/
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/kleeja/
Open your web browser and navigate to http://yourdomain.com/install/. Follow the prompts to install Kleeja.
During the installation process, you need to enter the database details you have set up in step 3. You also need to set up a Kleeja administrator account.
Once the installation is complete, remove the install directory from the Kleeja directory:
sudo rm -rf /var/www/kleeja/install/
You have successfully installed Kleeja on Arch Linux. You can access the Kleeja admin panel by navigating to http://yourdomain.com/admin/.
Congratulations! You can now upload and share your files with others using Kleeja.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
