How to Install Uptime Kuma on Fedora Server Latest
Uptime Kuma is an open-source self-hosted monitoring tool that allows you to monitor the uptime and status of your websites, servers, and services. It is written in Go and uses a lightweight and fast architecture that can handle thousands of checks per second. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Uptime Kuma on a Fedora Server latest system.
Prerequisites
Before starting with the installation process, make sure that your system meets the following prerequisites:
- A running Fedora Server latest system
- A non-root user with sudo privileges
- An updated system with the latest packages
Step 1 - Install Dependencies
Uptime Kuma requires some system dependencies to run correctly. We need to install these dependencies before installing Uptime Kuma. To install these dependencies, run the following command:
sudo dnf install -y git nodejs npm gcc make
Step 2 - Install Golang
Uptime Kuma is written in Go, so we need to install Go on our system. To install Go, follow these steps:
Step 2.1 – Download and Extract Go
Visit the official Go language website and download the latest version of Go for your Fedora system. You can find the latest version of Go at the following link: https://golang.org/dl/
wget https://golang.org/dl/go1.17.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.17.linux-amd64.tar.gz
Step 2.2 – Set Go Environment Variables
After extracting Go, we need to set Go environment variables, such as PATH, GOPATH, and GOROOT. Edit the /etc/profile file and add the following lines:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
Save the changes and execute the following command to load the environment variables:
source /etc/profile
Step 2.3 – Verify Go Installation
After setting up the Go environment, run the following command to verify that Go is installed correctly:
go version
Step 3 – Install Uptime Kuma
After installing the dependencies and Go, we can now proceed with the installation of Uptime Kuma. To install Uptime Kuma, follow these steps:
Step 3.1 – Clone Uptime Kuma repository
Clone the Uptime Kuma repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma.git
Step 3.2 – Install Uptime Kuma Dependencies
Go to the uptime-kuma directory and install Uptime Kuma dependencies using the following command:
cd uptime-kuma
make dep
Step 3.3 – Build and Install Uptime Kuma
After installing the dependencies, build and install Uptime Kuma using the following command:
make install
This command will build Uptime Kuma and copy the binary file to /usr/local/bin/uptime-kuma
Step 3.4 – Run Uptime Kuma
Now we can start Uptime Kuma by running the following command:
uptime-kuma
Step 4 – Access Uptime Kuma Web Interface
Uptime Kuma is now up and running on your Fedora system. To access the Uptime Kuma web interface, open your web browser and navigate to http://server_ip:3000.
