DRAFT: Installation Lighttpd
This guide instructs you on how to install OpenPhoto on an Ubuntu server.
Before setting up your server you'll need to make sure you have your cloud accounts set up. If you're using Amazon then make sure you've enabled both S3 and SimpleDb.
Once you've confirmed that your cloud account is setup you can get started on your server. For that you'll need to have Apache, PHP and curl installed with a few modules.
apt-get install apache2
apt-get install php5
apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5
apt-get install php5-curl
a2enmod rewrite
There are also a few optional but recommended packages and modules.
apt-get install php5-imagick
apt-get install exiftran
a2enmod deflate
a2enmod expires
a2enmod headers
Download and install the source code. We recommend /var/www/yourdomain.com but you can use any directory you'd like.
apt-get install git-core
git clone https://github.com/photo/frontend.git /var/www/yourdomain.com
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/yourdomain.com
cd /var/www
wget https://github.com/photo/frontend/tarball/master -O openphoto.tar.gz
tar -zxvf --group=www-data --owner=www-data openphoto.tar.gz
mv openphoto-frontend-* yourdomain.com
You'll need to copy the sample virtual host configuration file from the source to /etc/apache2/sites-enabled.
cp /var/www/yourdomain.com/src/configs/openphoto-vhost.conf /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/
Now you'll need to replace instances of /path/to/openphoto/html/directory with /var/www/yourdomain.com/src/html or wherever you placed the code.
vi /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/openphoto-vhost.conf
You should also verify that your php.ini file has a few important values set correctly.
vi /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
Search for the following values and make sure they're correct.
file_uploads = On
upload_max_filesize = 16M
post_max_size = 16M
Now you're ready to restart apache and visit the site in your browser.
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Now you're ready to launch your OpenPhoto site. Point your browser to your host and you'll be taken to a setup screen. You'll need your cloud account credentials to continue.
Once you complete the 3 steps your site will be up and running and you'll be redirected there. The setup screen won't show up anymore. If for any reason you want to go through the setup again you will need to delete the generated config file and refresh your browser.
rm /var/www/yourdomain.com/src/configs/generated/settings.ini
ENJOY!
