Prerequisites

Before we begin, you will need:

Step 1: Install Required Dependencies

To install Pydio on Clear Linux Latest, we need to install some dependencies required by the Pydio software.

To ensure that you have the latest package information, update your Clear Linux package database by running:

sudo swupd update

Next, use the following command to install the dependencies:

sudo swupd bundle-add php-basic php-mbstring php-xml php-mcrypt php-dom php-opcache apache mariadb

Step 2: Install Pydio

After installing the required dependencies, you can proceed with the installation of Pydio. To do this, follow the steps below:

1. Download Pydio

Go to the Pydio download page: https://pydio.com/en/get-pydio, and select the desired version of Pydio to install. Choose either Pydio Core or Pydio Cells, which are available as a tar.gz or zip archive.

After selecting the version and file format, copy the download link to the clipboard.

2. Download and Extract the Pydio Package

On your Clear Linux system, download the Pydio package by running the following command in your terminal:

wget [paste download link]

Replace [paste download link] with the Pydio package download link you copied in the previous step.

Next, extract the archive using the following command:

tar -xvf pydio-core-X.X.X.tar.gz

Replace X.X.X with the version number of the Pydio that you downloaded.

3. Move Pydio Package to Web Directory

Now, move the extracted Pydio package to your Apache web directory using the following command:

sudo mv pydio-core-X.X.X /var/www/

This will move the Pydio package to the default Apache web root directory, which is /var/www/.

4. Set Apache Permissions

To allow Apache to access the Pydio files and folders, you need to set the correct file and directory permissions. Run the following command to set the required permissions:

sudo chown -R apache:apache /var/www/pydio-core-X.X.X/

5. Create a Database

Next, create a new database for Pydio in your MariaDB database server using the following command:

mysql -u root -p

This will open the MariaDB console. Enter your MariaDB root password when prompted.

Now, create a new database with the name "pydio" using the following command:

CREATE DATABASE pydio;

Once the database is created, exit the MariaDB console by running:

exit

6. Configure Pydio

Finally, you need to configure Pydio to use the newly created database. To do that, navigate to your Pydio web directory by running:

cd /var/www/pydio-core-X.X.X/

Then, run the Pydio configuration wizard using the following command:

sudo php index.php

This will start the Pydio configuration wizard. Follow the prompts and enter the database information that you created earlier.

After completing the configuration wizard, you can access Pydio by navigating to http://your_server_ip/pydio-core-X.X.X/ in your web browser.
