In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps required to install ACP Admin on a Ubuntu Server.

Prerequisites

• Ubuntu Server latest version installed

Step 1: Update Ubuntu

It is always recommended to update Ubuntu before installing any new software.

1. Log in to your Ubuntu server using SSH.
2. Run the following command to update the server:

Step 2: Install Required Packages

ACP Admin requires some packages to be installed before we can install it. Run the following command to install these packages:

Step 3: Install Docker

ACP Admin is a Docker-based application, and we need to install Docker to run it.

1. Run the following command to download and install Docker on Ubuntu:

curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -

2. Add the Docker repository to Ubuntu’s package list:

sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"

3. Update the package list:

sudo apt update

4. Install Docker:

sudo apt install docker-ce

5. Check if Docker is installed:

docker -v

The output should be the current version of Docker installed on your Ubuntu server.

Step 4: Install ACP Admin

Now that Docker is installed, we can start installing ACP Admin.

1. Clone the ACP Admin repository from Github:

git clone https://github.com/pycantonese/acp-admin.git

2. Go to the ACP Admin directory:

cd acp-admin

3. Run Docker compose to start the ACP Admin container:

sudo docker-compose up -d

4. Wait for the installation to complete. This may take a few minutes.

5. Once the installation is complete, you can access ACP Admin by opening a web browser and accessing the server’s IP address with port 8000:

http://your-server-ip:8000/
