How to Install UberGallery on NetBSD

UberGallery is a simple jQuery image gallery and it provides a way to easily install on your NetBSD server.

Prerequisites

Before getting started, you must have the following prerequisites:

• NetBSD server
• Apache server
• PHP 5.4 or above
• MySQL/MariaDB database

Step 1: Download the Latest Version of UberGallery

First, you need to download the latest version of UberGallery to your NetBSD server using the following command:

cd /usr/local/www/apache24/data/
git clone https://github.com/UberGallery/UberGallery.git ubergallery

Step 2: Configure the Database

Next, you need to create a MySQL/MariaDB database to store the UberGallery data. Use the following commands to create a new database and provide necessary privileges:

mysql -u root -p
CREATE DATABASE ubergallery;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON ubergallery.* TO 'ubergallery'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'new_password_here';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Step 3: Configure the Apache Server

Now, you need to configure the Apache server to serve the UberGallery content. You should create a new virtual host for UberGallery in your httpd.conf file, by running the following command:

echo "
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin your_email_address@example.com
    DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/apache24/data/ubergallery
    ServerName ubergallery.example.com
    ServerAlias www.ubergallery.example.com
    ErrorLog /var/log/httpd-error.log
    CustomLog /var/log/httpd-access.log combined
</VirtualHost>" >> /usr/local/etc/apache24/httpd.conf

Step 4: Configure the UberGallery Settings

Now you need to configure the UberGallery settings as follows:

• Rename the resources/defaults/config.php to config.php.
• Update the database settings in config.php file to match the MySQL/MariaDB settings such as database name, username, and password.

Conclusion

That's it! You have successfully installed UberGallery on your NetBSD server. Open up your web browser and visit the URL you've configured in your Apache VirtualHost configuration file, and you should be able to see a beautiful jQuery image gallery.

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!
