Neos is a content management system (CMS) and a PHP-based web application framework. It is an open-source software that allows users to create and manage web content using intuitive interfaces. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Neos on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before installing Neos on your system, make sure that you meet the following requirements:
The first step is to clone the Neos repository into your web directory. In this tutorial, we will use the default Nginx web directory, which is /var/www/html/.
To clone the Neos repository, run the following command:
sudo git clone https://github.com/neos/neos-base-distribution.git /var/www/html/neos
This command will clone the Neos repository into the /var/www/html/neos directory.
Once the repository is cloned, navigate to the Neos directory and install the dependencies using Composer. To do this, run the following commands:
cd /var/www/html/neos
sudo composer install
This command will install all the required dependencies for Neos.
Next, we need to configure Nginx to serve Neos. To do this, create a new Nginx server block by running the following command:
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/neos
Then, paste the following configuration into the file:
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name example.com; # Replace with your domain name
root /var/www/html/neos/Web;
index index.php;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock; # Replace with your PHP version
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}
Replace example.com with your domain name. Also, make sure to replace php7.4-fpm.sock with the appropriate PHP version installed on your system.
Save the neos file and exit.
Next, create a symbolic link to enable the server block by running the following command:
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/neos /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
Finally, restart Nginx to apply the changes:
sudo systemctl restart nginx
Next, we need to create a new database for Neos. To do this, log in to MySQL or MariaDB with the following command:
sudo mysql -u root -p
Enter your MySQL or MariaDB root password when prompted.
Then, create a new database and user for Neos by running the following commands:
CREATE DATABASE neosdb CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON neosdb.* TO 'neosuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit
Replace neosdb, neosuser, and password with your desired database name, username, and password.
Now we are ready to install Neos. To do this, run the following command:
cd /var/www/html/neos
sudo ./flow neos:setup --hostname=example.com --dbms=mysql --database-name=neosdb --database-user=neosuser --database-password=password
Replace example.com, neosdb, neosuser, and password with your domain name, database name, username, and password.
This command will install Neos and create the necessary database tables and configurations.
Finally, open your web browser and navigate to your domain name (e.g., http://example.com). You should see the Neos installation wizard. Follow the instructions to complete the installation.
That's it! You have successfully installed Neos on EndeavourOS Latest. You can now start creating and managing web content using Neos.
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!
