How to Install Roadiz on EndeavourOS Latest

Roadiz is an open-source CMS for creating beautiful and powerful websites that is available at https://www.roadiz.io/. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install Roadiz on EndeavourOS Latest.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure your system is up to date by running the following command:

sudo pacman -Syyu

Step 1: Install Apache and PHP

The first step is to install Apache and PHP on the system. Run the following command to install them:

sudo pacman -S apache php php-apache

Step 2: Install MariaDB

Roadiz requires a database to store information. Install MariaDB with the following command:

sudo pacman -S mariadb

After installing MariaDB, start and enable it with the following commands:

sudo systemctl start mariadb
sudo systemctl enable mariadb

Step 3: Create a database and user

Log into the MariaDB server using the following command:

sudo mysql -u root

Create a new database and user with the following commands:

CREATE DATABASE roadiz;
CREATE USER 'roadiz'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON roadiz.* TO 'roadiz'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;

Replace 'password' with a strong password for the user.

Step 4: Install Roadiz

Download the latest version of Roadiz from the official website at https://www.roadiz.io/download/. Extract the downloaded file to the Apache root directory with the following command:

sudo tar -xvf roadiz-full-5.5.0.tar.gz -C /srv/http/

Replace 'roadiz-full-5.5.0.tar.gz' with the name of the downloaded file.

Step 5: Configure Apache

Create a new Apache configuration file for Roadiz with the following command:

sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/extra/roadiz.conf

Add the following lines to the file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin admin@example.com
    DocumentRoot "/srv/http/roadiz"
    ServerName example.com
    ErrorLog "/var/log/httpd/roadiz-error_log"
    CustomLog "/var/log/httpd/roadiz-access_log" common
    <Directory "/srv/http/roadiz">
        Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Replace 'example.com' with your domain name or IP address.

Enable the new configuration file with the following command:

sudo ln -s /etc/httpd/conf/extra/roadiz.conf /etc/httpd/conf/available/
sudo systemctl restart httpd
