Cozy Cloud is a free and open-source software that allows you to store, sync, and share your data with ease. It is a great alternative to cloud services like Dropbox, Google Drive, and iCloud. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Cozy Cloud on OpenSUSE latest release.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following:
Firstly, you need to download the Cozy Cloud package from the official website. OpenSUSE package for Cozy Cloud is available in RPM format. You can download the package by running the following command:
wget https://dl.cozycloud.cc/install/latest/cozy-latest.x86_64.rpm
This will download the Cozy Cloud package to your current directory.
Cozy Cloud requires several dependencies to be installed on your system. You can install them by running the following command:
sudo zypper install libssl1_0_0 jemalloc
Now that you have downloaded the Cozy Cloud package and installed its dependencies, you can install it on your system. You can do so by running the following command:
sudo rpm -ivh cozy-latest.x86_64.rpm
The above command will install Cozy Cloud on your system.
To allow traffic to pass through the firewall to access the Cozy Cloud server, you need to open the port 443 using the following command:
sudo firewall-cmd --add-port=443/tcp --permanent
sudo firewall-cmd --reload
Finally, you can start the Cozy Cloud server by running the following command:
sudo systemctl start cozy-stack
By default, Cozy Cloud server starts automatically at boot time. If you want to disable it, run the following command:
sudo systemctl disable cozy-stack
Now that Cozy Cloud is installed and running on your system, you can access it by opening your web browser and navigating to https://localhost:8443/.
You will see a self-signed SSL certificate warning, but you can safely proceed by clicking on "Advanced" and then "Proceed to localhost (unsafe)".
To log in to Cozy Cloud, you will need to create a user account. You can do so by clicking on the "Create an account" button on the login screen.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Cozy Cloud on OpenSUSE latest release. You can now use Cozy Cloud to store, sync, and share your data in a secure and private way.
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!
