Installing Picsur on Fedora Server Latest

Picsur is an open-source image sharing and hosting platform that allows users to upload, share, and manage their images. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Picsur on a Fedora Server Latest.

Prerequisites

Before starting the installation process, you need to have the following prerequisites:

• A running Fedora Server Latest instance
• Root or sudo user access
• Internet connection

Step 1: Install Required Dependencies

The first step is to install the required dependencies before installing Picsur. Run the following command to install them.

sudo dnf install -y git nginx php php-gd php-fpm php-mbstring unzip

Step 2: Clone the Repository

Next, we need to clone the Picsur repository from GitHub. Run the following command to clone it into the /var/www directory.

sudo git clone https://github.com/rubikscraft/Picsur.git /var/www/picsur

Step 3: Configure NGINX

Now, we need to set up an NGINX server block to host the Picsur web application. Run the following command to create a new server block file.

sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/picsur.conf

Add the following content to the file.

server {
    listen 80;
    listen [::]:80;

    root /var/www/picsur;
    index index.php;

    server_name your_domain.com;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        try_files $uri =404;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php-fpm/www.sock;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        include fastcgi_params;
    }
}

Replace the "your_domain.com" with your domain name, and save the file by pressing "CTRL+X", "Y", and "Enter".

Step 4: Configure Picsur

We need to configure Picsur by copying the sample configuration file.

sudo cp /var/www/picsur/config.php.sample /var/www/picsur/config.php

You can edit the config.php file and adjust the settings according to your requirements.

Step 5: Restart Services

Now, restart the NGINX and PHP-FPM services by running the following commands.

sudo systemctl restart nginx
sudo systemctl restart php-fpm

Step 6: Access the Picsur Application

The installation is complete, and now you can access the Picsur application by opening a web browser and typing the server's IP address or domain name. You will see the Picsur login page.
