Cherokee is an easy to use and flexible web server that can handle a range of web applications. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the steps to install Cherokee on Clear Linux.
Before we can start with the installation process, it's important to ensure that you have the following:
sudo swupd update
sudo swupd bundle-add cherokee
sudo systemctl start cherokee
sudo systemctl status cherokee
This should return the status as 'active' or 'running', indicating that the service has started successfully.
By default, Cherokee listens on port 80, so you can access the server by navigating to http://localhost on your web browser. You should see the default Cherokee landing page.
To configure Cherokee, you can use its web-based admin interface. Navigate to http://localhost:9090/ to access it.
You'll be prompted to enter a username and password. Use the same credentials as your Clear Linux user account.
Once logged in, you can navigate through the admin interface and customize the server settings as per your requirements.
You've now successfully installed and configured Cherokee on Clear Linux!
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!
