TYPO3 is a free and open-source content management system that is used to build robust and scalable web applications. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing TYPO3 on EndeavourOS.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
To start the installation process, visit the official TYPO3 website at https://typo3.org/, and download the latest version of TYPO3. Select the appropriate version for your operating system.
After downloading TYPO3, install the required PHP extensions and dependencies. To do this, run the following command:
sudo pacman -S php-gd php-mbstring php-xml php-intl php-sodium php-zip php-pdo_mysql
Extract the TYPO3 archive and move its files to the document root of your server. To do this, open your terminal and navigate to the directory where the TYPO3 archive was downloaded. For instance, we will assume that it was downloaded to the Downloads folder.
cd ~/Downloads
Next, extract TYPO3 by running the following command:
tar xzf typo3_src-X.X.X.tar.gz
Replace X.X.X with the version number that you downloaded.
Now move TYPO3 to the document root. For EndeavourOS, the document root is located at /srv/httpd/htdocs/. To move TYPO3 to the document root, run the following command:
sudo mv -r typo3_src-X.X.X /srv/httpd/htdocs/typo3
Open MySQL by running the following command:
mysql -u root -p
Type in your MySQL root password when prompted.
Next, create a new database for TYPO3 by running the following command:
CREATE DATABASE typo3_database;
Replace typo3_database with the name you want to use for your TYPO3 database.
Now create a new database user for TYPO3 by running the following command:
CREATE USER 'typo3_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
Replace typo3_user with the name you want to use for your TYPO3 database user and replace password with a password of your choice.
Next, grant privileges to the TYPO3 user by running the following command:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON typo3_database.* TO 'typo3_user'@'localhost';
Close the MySQL console by running the following command:
exit
Open your web browser and go to http://your-server-ip/typo3/install.php. This will open the TYPO3 installation wizard.
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the TYPO3 installation. During the installation process, you will be prompted to enter your database information (database name, username, password, and host).
After completing the installation process, you will be redirected to the TYPO3 backend. Log in using the credentials you provided during the installation process.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed TYPO3 on EndeavourOS!
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!
