How to Install Olaris on Fedora Server Latest

Olaris is an open-source, peer-to-peer file sharing service. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps to install Olaris on Fedora Server Latest using GitLab.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, you will need the following:

  • A Fedora Server Latest installation running on a Virtual Machine or a dedicated server.
  • Root access or a user account with sudo privileges.
  • A GitLab account.

Step 1 - Update Your System

Before proceeding, it is recommended to update your system to ensure that you have the latest packages installed.

sudo dnf update -y

Then, reboot your system if necessary.

sudo shutdown -r now

Step 2 - Install the Required Packages

Next, we need to install Git, Docker, and Docker Compose.

sudo dnf install -y git docker docker-compose

After installing Docker, start and enable the Docker service.

sudo systemctl start docker
sudo systemctl enable docker

Step 3 - Clone Olaris Repository

Now, we need to clone the Olaris Server repository from GitLab.

git clone https://gitlab.com/olaris/olaris-server.git

Once the repository is cloned, navigate to the Olaris directory.

cd olaris-server

Step 4 - Configure Olaris

Next, we will create a configuration file for Olaris.

cp .env.example .env

Then, open the .env file and edit it as per your requirements.

nano .env

Specify the values for the following variables.

POSTGRES_USER=olaris
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=olaris
POSTGRES_DB=olaris_db
POSTGRES_HOST=olaris_db

[email protected]
ADMIN_PASSWORD=your_password
DOMAIN=your_domain.com

Save and close the file.

Step 5 - Build and Run Olaris

Now, we will build and run the Olaris Server.

docker-compose up --build -d

If the build is successful, the Olaris Server should be up and running.

Step 6 - Verify Olaris Installation

To verify that Olaris is running, open your web browser and navigate to the following URL.

http://localhost

If you see the Olaris home page, the installation was successful.
