This tutorial will guide you through the steps required to install SCM Manager on OpenBSD.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following:
SCM Manager is built using Java, so we need to install Java before we can proceed with the installation. To install Java, run the following command:
pkg_add openjdk
This command will install the OpenJDK package.
Next, we need to download SCM Manager from the official website. To download the latest version, run the following command:
ftp https://dl.bintray.com/scm-manager/releases/scm-server/2.14.1/scm-server-app-2.14.1.tar.gz
This command will download the SCM Manager package to your system.
Once the download is complete, use the following command to extract the package:
tar -zxvf scm-server-app-2.14.1.tar.gz
This command will extract the SCM Manager package.
Now that the package is extracted, we need to configure SCM Manager. Navigate to the extracted directory:
cd scm-server-app-2.14.1
Next, edit the config file:
vi bin/scm-server.conf
In this file, make sure that the JAVA_HOME variable is set to the correct path where Java is installed:
JAVA_HOME="/usr/local/openjdk8"
To start SCM Manager, run the following command:
bin/scm-server start
This will start SCM Manager in the background. To check if SCM Manager is running, run the following command:
bin/scm-server status
SCM Manager is now up and running. You can access it by opening a web browser and navigating to:
http://localhost:8080/scm/
You should now see the SCM Manager login screen. Use the default username and password to log in:
scmadminscmadminCongratulations! You have successfully installed SCM Manager on your OpenBSD system.
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!
