Prerequisites

Before proceeding with the installation process, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:

Step 1: Install Required Dependencies

wget https://github.com/thelia/thelia/releases/download/v2.4.0/thelia-2.4.0.zip

This command will download the Thelia package in the zip format.

Step 3: Extract Thelia

After downloading the Thelia package, extract it using the following command:

unzip thelia-2.4.0.zip

This command will extract the Thelia package to a folder named "thelia-2.4.0".

Step 4: Configure MariaDB

Next, we need to configure MariaDB. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Start the MariaDB service by running the following command:

    sudo systemctl start mariadb
    
  2. Secure the MariaDB installation by running the following command:

    sudo mysql_secure_installation
    

    This command will prompt you to set a root password, remove anonymous users, disallow root login remotely, remove test databases, and reload privilege tables. Follow the instructions and secure the MariaDB installation.

  3. Create a new MariaDB database for Thelia by running the following command:

    mysql -u root -p -e "CREATE DATABASE thelia_db;"
    
  4. Create a new user for Thelia by running the following command:

    mysql -u root -p -e "CREATE USER 'thelia_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'your_password';"
    

    Replace "your_password" with a strong password.

  5. Grant privileges to the new user by running the following command:

    mysql -u root -p -e "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON thelia_db.* TO 'thelia_user'@'localhost';"
    

    This command will grant all privileges to the "thelia_user" on the "thelia_db" database.

Step 5: Configure Nginx

Next, we need to configure Nginx to serve Thelia. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Create a new Nginx configuration file for Thelia by running the following command:

    sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/thelia.conf
    
  2. Paste the following Nginx configuration into the file:

    server {
        listen 80;
        server_name your_domain.com;
        root /var/www/html/thelia-2.4.0/web;
        index index.php;
    
        location / {
            try_files $uri /index.php?$args;
        }
    
        location ~ \.php$ {
            try_files $uri =404;
            fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/www.sock;
            fastcgi_index index.php;
            fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
            include fastcgi_params;
        }
    
        location ~ /\.ht {
            deny all;
        }
    }
    

    Replace "your_domain.com" with your domain name.

  3. Save and close the file.

  4. Test the Nginx configuration by running the following command:

    sudo nginx -t
    

    This command will test the Nginx configuration and show any errors if found.

  5. If the Nginx configuration test is successful, reload the Nginx service by running the following command:

    sudo systemctl reload nginx
    

Step 6: Install Thelia

Finally, we can install Thelia. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Move the Thelia files to the Nginx root directory by running the following command:

    sudo mv thelia-2.4.0 /var/www/html/
    
  2. Set the correct permissions for the Thelia files by running the following command:

    sudo chown -R nginx:nginx /var/www/html/thelia-2.4.0
    
  3. Open the Thelia configuration file by running the following command:

    sudo nano /var/www/html/thelia-2.4.0/local/config/database.yml
    
  4. Replace the following lines in the file:

    database: ~
    user: ~
    password: ~
    

    with:

    database: thelia_db
    user: thelia_user
    password: your_password
