How to Install Roadiz on Fedora Server Latest

Roadiz is an open-source content management system (CMS) that allows you to create and manage websites. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps required to install Roadiz on Fedora Server Latest.

Prerequisites

Before you begin the installation of Roadiz, make sure your system meets the following prerequisites:

  • A server running Fedora Server Latest.
  • Apache web server installed and running.
  • PHP version 7.2 or later installed on your system.
  • MySQL or MariaDB database installed and running.

Step 1: Download Roadiz

The first step is to download the latest version of Roadiz from their official website. You can download either the full package or the minimal package.

Run the following command to download the full package:

wget https://release.roadiz.io/roadiz/latest.zip

Once the download is complete, unzip the package with the following command:

unzip latest.zip

Step 2: Configure Apache

Next, you need to configure Apache web server to serve Roadiz. Open the Apache configuration file using your favorite text editor. In this example, we will use nano:

sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Add the following lines at the end of the file to create a virtual host for Roadiz:

<VirtualHost *:80>
	ServerName roadiz.local
	DocumentRoot /var/www/html/Roadiz/web
	<Directory "/var/www/html/Roadiz/web">
		AllowOverride All
	</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Save and close the file.

Step 3: Install Dependencies

Roadiz requires some additional PHP extensions to be installed on your system. Install the required PHP extensions using the following command:

sudo dnf install git php-mbstring php-xml php-gd php-zip php-curl php-json

Step 4: Create Database

Roadiz requires a database to store its data. You can create a new database with the following command:

sudo mysql -u root -p

Enter your MySQL root user password when prompted.

CREATE DATABASE roadiz;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON roadiz.* TO 'roadizuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;

Replace roadizuser with your desired database username and password with your desired password.

Step 5: Install Roadiz

Copy the extracted Roadiz files to the Apache DocumentRoot directory:

sudo cp -r roadiz-1.4.4/* /var/www/html/Roadiz/

Change the ownership of the Roadiz directory to Apache user:

sudo chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/Roadiz

Restart the Apache web server to apply the changes:

sudo systemctl restart httpd

Run the Roadiz installer with the following command:

php /var/www/html/Roadiz/bin/roadiz install

Follow the prompts to complete the installation process.

Step 6: Verify Roadiz

Finally, verify that Roadiz is installed and running by visiting http://roadiz.local in your web browser.

Conclusion

You have successfully installed Roadiz on your Fedora Server Latest system. You can now use Roadiz to create and manage websites. Happy coding!
