How to Install AmIUnique on Fedora Server Latest

AmIUnique is a web-based tool that can help you determine how unique your browser configuration is. In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps of installing AmIUnique on Fedora Server Latest.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure that you have the following:

Step 1 - Update Your System

Before installing AmIUnique, it's important to ensure that your system is up-to-date. Open a terminal window and run the following command:

sudo dnf update

Step 2 - Install Apache

AmIUnique runs on Apache, so you'll need to install Apache on your server. Run the following command to install Apache:

sudo dnf install httpd

Once the installation is complete, enable Apache to start at boot time and start the Apache service:

sudo systemctl enable httpd
sudo systemctl start httpd

Step 3 - Install PHP

AmIUnique is written in PHP, so you'll need to install PHP and its necessary modules. Run the following command to install PHP and its modules:

sudo dnf install php php-common php-json php-mysqlnd php-zip php-gd php-mbstring php-curl php-xml php-pear php-bcmath

Step 4 - Install MySQL

AmIUnique uses MySQL to store data. Run the following command to install MySQL on your server:

sudo dnf install mysql-server

After the installation, enable and start the MySQL service:

sudo systemctl enable mysqld
sudo systemctl start mysqld

Step 5 - Create a MySQL Database and User

Create a new MySQL database and user for AmIUnique. Open the MySQL shell by running the following command:

sudo mysql

Once you are in the MySQL shell, run the following commands to create a new database and user:

CREATE DATABASE amiunique;
CREATE USER 'amiunique'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON amiunique.* TO 'amiunique'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Replace password with a strong password of your choice.

Step 6 - Download and Configure AmIUnique

Download the latest version of AmIUnique from the official website:

sudo wget https://github.com/DIVERSIFY-project/amiunique/releases/download/2.0.0/amiunique-2.0.0.tar.bz2

Extract the archive:

sudo tar -xvf amiunique-2.0.0.tar.bz2

Move the AmIUnique files to the Apache document root:

sudo mv amiunique /var/www/html/

Next, change the ownership of the AmIUnique directory to the Apache user:

sudo chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/amiunique

Finally, copy the config.ini.dist file to config.ini:

sudo cp /var/www/html/amiunique/config.ini.dist /var/www/html/amiunique/config.ini

Open the config.ini file with a text editor, and modify the following lines:

[database]
host     = localhost
username = amiunique
password = password
dbname   = amiunique

Replace password with the password you set for the amiunique user in Step 5.

Step 7 - Access AmIUnique

Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost/amiunique. You should see the AmIUnique application.

Congratulations! You've successfully installed AmIUnique on Fedora Server Latest. You can now use AmIUnique to determine the uniqueness of your browser configuration.
