Step 11 – Now reload / restart Apache then enable the newly created virtual host file using a2ensite command: service apache2 reload Now save changes and exit (In Nano it is Control+O then Control+X).Īlso create new directory to store all the log files: mkdir -p /var/www//logs ServerAlias DocumentRoot /var/www/html/owncloud Hit Enter and put this configuration in it: Replace in that command with your real domain name. We can use Nano (my favorite text editor) nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/ In this article I use as example ( domain not exists, just for tutorial shake). First, create new configuration file for your website. Step 10 – In order for Apache to be able to serve OwnCloud, we have to create new Apache configuration or virtual hosts file. Step 9 – Now we have to set directory permission using this command: chown www-data:www-data -R /var/www/html/owncloud/ Next, extract the package to default Apache’s web folder using this command: tar -xvf owncloud-8.0.3.tar.bz2 -C /var/www/html/Īgain, do not forget to change the actual OwnCloud package according to the version you’ve downloaded. Go back to Putty (or Terminal) and download it using wget command: wget ĭo not forget to change the download link Next, you have to copy its download link (Right-click on the link and copy) Firstly, go to and click Download button. In the time of writing, current stable version is OwnCloud v8.0.3.

DIGITALOCEAN OWNCLOUD PASSWORD

Replace newpassword with your password (no spaces). Replace newdbuser with your own new database username. Then these few lines of command: CREATE USER IDENTIFIED BY 'newpassword' Step 7 – Now login to Mariadb as root and create new user and new database, type in this command: mysql -u root -p Do not forget to create new password and remember it (It is your database password for user root). Simply hit Enter on your keyboard if asked with current password then answer next questions accordingly. apt-get install mariadb-server -yĪlso issue command below to setup MariaDB for the very first time: /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation Currently it supports only MySQL and MariaDB. OwnCloud needs a database server to process all of its data. Step 6 – Now issue command below to install MariaDB server on your VPS. Step 5 – Now install required PHP5 modules for OwnCloud to run: apt-get install php5-gd php5-json php5-curl php5-intl php5-mcrypt php5-imagick -y Step 4 – Once the install process is finish, continue with installing PHP5: apt-get install php5 php5-mysql -y Step 3 – OwnCloud is a web-based app that require a web server to run so go ahead to install Apache, don’t worry it is easy: apt-get install apache2 -y

Now login to your server as root (I assume you knew how to use SSH / Putty). Step 1 – Get a fresh Ubuntu 15.04 server, minimal version is recommended.

You may also need a proper knowledge to use Putty, SSH and common Unix command.

*p.s: Never use DO before? Signup DigitalOcean via this special link to get free $10 credit in your account.

Also, the distro I use is Ubuntu 15.04 x86_64. However that doesn’t mean I don’t have a production server running at DO, I have one and it is pretty solid and stable.

DO is my first choice because I can build a server, test cool things and destroy. In this article I use a droplet from DigitalOcean (DO) with 512MB of RAM and 20GB SSD storage. In this tutorial I will guide you to install OwnCloud 8 on Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid Vervet VPS on Apache, MariaDB and PHP5 stack, each steps with screenshot pic as always.
