Step 2: Download GarageHQ

Next, download the latest version of GarageHQ using Git:

Step 3: Configure Apache

Create a new virtual host configuration file for GarageHQ in /etc/httpd/conf.d/garagehq.conf:

Add the following lines to the file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName your-domain.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/GarageHQ/web
    <Directory /var/www/html/GarageHQ/web>
        AllowOverride All

    </Directory>
    ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/garagehq_error.log
    CustomLog /var/log/httpd/garagehq_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

Replace your-domain.com with your actual domain name.

Restart Apache for the changes to take effect:

$ sudo systemctl restart httpd

Step 4: Configure PHP

Create a new PHP configuration file for GarageHQ in /etc/php.d/garagehq.ini:

$ sudo vi /etc/php.d/garagehq.ini

Step 5: Install GarageHQ Dependencies

MariaDB [(none)]> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `garagehq`.* TO 'garagehq'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
MariaDB [(none)]> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
MariaDB [(none)]> exit;

Replace password with a strong password.

...
database_host: 127.0.0.1
