REDAXO is a powerful content management system (CMS) that can be installed on a server and used to create, manage, and publish web content. This tutorial will guide you through the steps required to install REDAXO on Ubuntu Server Latest.
Before we begin, you should have the following:
If you don't have a non-root user with sudo privileges, follow the instructions in this tutorial to create one.
First, download the latest version of REDAXO from the official website. You can do this by running the following command in the terminal:
wget https://www.redaxo.org/assets/addons/redaxo/5.12.0/REDAXO5-master.zip
This will download the ZIP file containing REDAXO to your server.
Next, unzip the downloaded file using the following command:
unzip REDAXO5-master.zip
This will create a new directory called REDAXO5-master in your current directory.
Copy the REDAXO5-master directory to the directory where your web server stores its files. For Apache, this is typically /var/www/html/. You can do this using the following command:
sudo cp -r REDAXO5-master /var/www/html/
Make sure that the web server has permission to access the REDAXO files by changing their ownership to the www-data user and group. You can do this using the following command:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/REDAXO5-master
Next, create a new MySQL database for REDAXO to use. You can do this by logging in to MySQL as the root user and running the following commands:
mysql -u root -p
Enter your MySQL root password when prompted. Then, create a new database by running:
CREATE DATABASE redaxo_db;
Replace redaxo_db with the name you want to give your database.
Next, create a new user with a secure password and grant them permission to access the new database:
CREATE USER 'redaxo_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'my_secure_password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON redaxo_db.* TO 'redaxo_user'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Replace redaxo_user and my_secure_password with the username and password you want to use.
Open your web browser and navigate to http://your_server_ip/REDAXO5-master/. Replace your_server_ip with the IP address or domain name of your server.
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the REDAXO installation. When prompted, enter the database name, username, and password you created in step 5.
Once the installation is complete, you will be redirected to the REDAXO login page. Enter the default login credentials, which are admin for the username and admin for the password.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed REDAXO on your Ubuntu Server Latest! You can now start using REDAXO to create and manage your website content.
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!
