UberGallery is a web gallery application that allows you to easily manage and display your photos on a website. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing UberGallery on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before you start with the installation process, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
Visit the official UberGallery website at https://www.ubergallery.net/ and click on the "Download Now" button on the homepage. This will download the latest version of UberGallery to your machine.
Once the download is complete, move the downloaded file to your web server's document root directory, which is usually located at "/var/www/html/". Now, open a terminal window and navigate to the "/var/www/html/" directory (use the "cd" command).
Type the following command to unzip the downloaded UberGallery file:
sudo unzip ubergallery-x.x.xx.zip
Replace "ubergallery-x.x.xx.zip" with the name of the downloaded file. This will extract the UberGallery files to the "/var/www/html/ubergallery" directory.
After extracting the UberGallery files, navigate to the "/var/www/html/ubergallery/" directory and open the "resources/settings.php" file in a text editor.
In this file, you can configure various settings such as the gallery title, description, and email address. You can also set up the database credentials if you want to use MySQL to store gallery data.
Save the "settings.php" file after making the necessary changes.
Before the UberGallery can function properly, we need to set appropriate permissions for the files and directories. Run the following commands to set the correct permissions:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/ubergallery
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/ubergallery
These commands will give the web server software (usually Apache or nginx) ownership of the UberGallery files and directories and set read, write, and execute permissions to them.
If you haven't installed a web server software, such as Apache or nginx, you need to install it and configure it to work with UberGallery.
For Apache, run the following command to install it:
sudo pacman -S apache
For nginx, run the following command to install it:
sudo pacman -S nginx
You can find detailed instructions on how to configure these web server software on the internet.
Now, you can access the installed UberGallery by visiting your website's URL, followed by "/ubergallery".
For example, if your website is "http://example.com", you can access the installed UberGallery by visiting "http://example.com/ubergallery".
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install UberGallery on EndeavourOS Latest. Now you can easily manage and display your photos on your website using the UberGallery application.
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!
