In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Fedora Commons Repository on Manjaro Linux. Fedora Commons Repository is a popular repository management system that allows users to store, manage, and access digital content. Follow these steps to install Fedora Commons Repository on Manjaro:
Fedora Commons Repository requires at least Java Development Kit version 8 or higher to be installed on the system. Run the following command in the terminal to install JDK 8:
sudo pacman -S jdk8-openjdk
Apache Tomcat is a web application server that runs the Fedora Commons Repository. Run the following command in the terminal to install Apache Tomcat:
sudo pacman -S tomcat8
Download the Fedora Commons Repository from the official website. You can download the latest version of the software from the Fedora Commons Repository Home page. Once you've downloaded the software, extract the archive to a directory of your choice.
tar -xvf fedora-commons-repository-4.7.4.tar.gz
cd fedora-commons-repository-4.7.4
Before starting the Fedora Commons Repository, you need to configure it. Edit the fcrepo.config file and set the following configurations:
# Database configuration
fcrepo.db.driver=org.postgresql.Driver
fcrepo.db.url=jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/fcrepo
fcrepo.db.username=your_database_username
fcrepo.db.password=your_database_password
# Tomcat configuration
fcrepo.http.port=8080
fcrepo.https.port=8443
fcrepo.hostname=localhost
fcrepo.tomcat.home=/usr/share/tomcat8
Replace your_database_username and your_database_password with the username and password of your PostgreSQL database. You can also change the HTTP and HTTPS ports and the hostname as required.
Start the Fedora Commons Repository by running the following command:
./bin/fcrepo_start.sh
You should see a message indicating that the server has started successfully.
You can now access the Fedora Commons Repository web interface by navigating to http://localhost:8080/fcrepo in your web browser.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed and configured Fedora Commons Repository on Manjaro Linux.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
