REDAXO is a powerful and flexible Content Management System (CMS) that helps you to create professional and responsive websites. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install REDAXO CMS on Debian Latest.
Before you start, make sure you have the following:
A Debian Latest server with root access or a user with sudo privileges.
Apache or Nginx installed and running.
PHP installed and configured.
First, you need to install required packages on your Debian system. You can use the following command to install them:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php php-curl php-gd php-mysql php-json php-xml libapache2-mod-php unzip
Once all required packages are installed, download the latest version of REDAXO from the official website. Use the following command to download it:
wget https://github.com/redaxo/redaxo/archive/master.zip
You can also download it from the command line by using the following command:
curl -O https://github.com/redaxo/redaxo/archive/master.zip
After downloading the REDAXO ZIP file, unzip it:
unzip master.zip
This will create a new directory named "redaxo-master". Move it to your web directory:
sudo mv redaxo-master /var/www/html/redaxo
Make sure the web server user has the proper permissions to access this directory.
Create a virtual host for REDAXO CMS on Apache or Nginx. For Apache, you can create a new virtual host file "redaxo.conf" inside the "/etc/apache2/sites-available/" directory by running the following command:
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/redaxo.conf
Add the following configuration to it:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName your_domain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/redaxo
<Directory /var/www/html/redaxo/>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/redaxo_error.log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/redaxo_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Save and close the file by pressing "Ctrl + X", "Y", and "Enter". Then enable the virtual host by running the following command:
sudo a2ensite redaxo.conf
For Nginx, you can create a new virtual host file "redaxo.conf" inside the "/etc/nginx/sites-available/" directory by running the following command:
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/redaxo.conf
Add the following configuration to it:
server {
listen 80;
server_name your_domain.com;
root /var/www/html/redaxo;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
}
Save and close the file by pressing "Ctrl + X", "Y", and "Enter". Then enable the virtual host by creating a symlink:
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/redaxo.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
Now you can access REDAXO CMS by visiting your domain name in a web browser. You will see the REDAXO CMS setup page where you can configure the CMS according to your needs.
Follow the on-screen instructions and provide the required information such as database connection details, admin credentials, etc.
After successful installation, login to your REDAXO CMS admin panel and start creating or managing your content.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed REDAXO CMS on Debian Latest. You can now use REDAXO CMS to create powerful and responsive websites.
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!
