Thelia is an open-source eCommerce platform that allows users to create online stores and manage them easily. If you are looking to install Thelia on Fedora CoreOS Latest, this tutorial is for you. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the installation process step-by-step.
Before proceeding with the installation process, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
First, we need to install some required dependencies for Thelia. To do this, run the following command:
sudo dnf install mariadb mariadb-server nginx php-fpm php-mysqlnd php-gd php-json php-bcmath php-curl php-mbstring php-xml unzip wget
This command will install all the required packages for Thelia.
Next, we need to download Thelia. Go to the Thelia website and download the latest stable version of Thelia. To do this, run the following command:
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.
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".
Next, we need to configure MariaDB. To do this, follow these steps:
Start the MariaDB service by running the following command:
sudo systemctl start mariadb
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.
Create a new MariaDB database for Thelia by running the following command:
mysql -u root -p -e "CREATE DATABASE thelia_db;"
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.
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.
Next, we need to configure Nginx to serve Thelia. To do this, follow these steps:
Create a new Nginx configuration file for Thelia by running the following command:
sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/thelia.conf
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.
Save and close the file.
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.
If the Nginx configuration test is successful, reload the Nginx service by running the following command:
sudo systemctl reload nginx
Finally, we can install Thelia. To do this, follow these steps:
Move the Thelia files to the Nginx root directory by running the following command:
sudo mv thelia-2.4.0 /var/www/html/
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
Open the Thelia configuration file by running the following command:
sudo nano /var/www/html/thelia-2.4.0/local/config/database.yml
Replace the following lines in the file:
database: ~
user: ~
password: ~
with:
database: thelia_db
user: thelia_user
password: your_password
Replace "your_password" with the password you set for the "thelia_user".
Save and close the file.
Open the Thelia configuration file by running the following command:
sudo nano /var/www/html/thelia-2.4.0/local/config/config.yml
Replace the following line in the file:
base_url: ~
with:
base_url: http://your_domain.com/
Replace "your_domain.com" with your domain name.
Save and close the file.
Restart the PHP-FPM service by running the following command:
sudo systemctl restart php-fpm
Open your web browser and go to "http://your_domain.com". You should see the Thelia installation page. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation process.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Thelia on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
