Shopware Community Edition is a powerful and feature-rich e-commerce platform that offers an enterprise-level solution for online stores. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install Shopware Community Edition on Fedora CoreOS latest.
Before installing Shopware, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
First, you need to update your system packages by running the following command:
sudo dnf update -y
Next, you need to install PHP and the required PHP extensions. Please use the following command for the installation.
sudo dnf install php php-mysql php-fpm php-mbstring php-xml -y
Now, you need to install and configure MySQL on your Fedora CoreOS. Please use the below command for the installation.
sudo dnf install mariadb mariadb-server -y
Once MySQL installation is completed, start and enable it to the system boot.
sudo systemctl start mariadb
sudo systemctl enable mariadb
After that, run the following command to set the password for the root user of the MySQL database.
sudo mysql_secure_installation
Next, you need to create a new database and user in MySQL for Shopware installation. Please login to the MySQL database server with root user privileges.
sudo mysql -u root -p
Once logged in, execute the below SQL commands for creating a new database and user.
CREATE DATABASE shopware;
CREATE USER 'shopware_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON shopware.* TO 'shopware_user'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;
Now, it is time to download the latest version of Shopware from the official website. Please navigate to the Shopware download page (https://www.shopware.com/en/download/) and download the latest version.
After downloading the latest version, extract it using the following command.
sudo tar xzf shopware-X.X.X.zip -C /var/www/html/
Change the X.X.X to the latest version number.
Next, set up the ownership and permission for the Shopware directory using the following command.
sudo chown -R nginx:nginx /var/www/html/shopware/
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/shopware/
Note: The above command uses nginx as the user here. But if you are using Apache as your webserver, change the user to apache.
Now, it is time to configure PHP and Nginx for Shopware installation. Create the following configuration files.
sudo nano /etc/php-fpm.d/shopware.conf
Add the following lines in the file.
[shopware]
user = nginx
group = nginx
listen = /var/run/php-fpm/shopware.sock
listen.owner = nginx
listen.group = nginx
listen.mode = 0660
pm = dynamic
pm.max_children = 50
pm.start_servers = 5
pm.min_spare_servers = 5
pm.max_spare_servers = 35
php_admin_value[memory_limit] = 512M
php_admin_value[max_execution_time] = 600
Next, create the Nginx virtual host configuration file using the following command.
sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/shopware.conf
Add the following configurations in the file.
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.com;
root /var/www/html/shopware;
index index.php;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/shopware.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}
You have completed all the configurations required for Shopware installation. Now, it is time to restart the services to apply the changes. Please run the following commands to restart the services.
sudo systemctl restart php-fpm
sudo systemctl restart nginx
Now, you can access the Shopware installation by going to the following link in your web browser.
http://example.com
Note: Please replace example.com with your domain name.
