View source for Install OS4X on Cent OS 6.x

Based on a minimal installation of CentOS 6.4, this documentation shows some hints and required packages in order to install OS4X successfully.


== Packages ==
You need the following packages installed:
 yum install -y wget system-config-network-tui php-zts.x86_64 php php-common php-gd \
 php-mcrypt php-pear php-pecl-memcache php-mhash php-mysql php-xml mysql mysql-server \
 system-config-securitylevel-tui openssh-clients

== Configuration changes ==
Depending on your installation, these changes may affect your environment. These changes mentioned here are meant for an internal installation without any security issues in mind ("''functionality first''").

=== disable firewall ===
 service iptables save
 service iptables stop
 chkconfig iptables off

=== Apache web server start at boot time ===
 chkconfig httpd on
 service httpd start

=== MySQL server start at boot time  ===
 chkconfig mysqld on
 service mysqld start
You may re-configure your MySQL server installation with the following command (when changing the root password, keep it in a safe place for the later OS4X installation. You will need this password.)
 mysql_secure_installation

=== deactivate SELinux ===
 vi /etc/sysconfig/selinux
change:
 SELINUX=disabled

=== activate eth0 activate at boot time ===
Initial setup of eth0:
 system-config-network
Save the config for the network adapter. Afterwards edit it manually:
 vi /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0
change:
 ONBOOT=yes

== PAM ==
For OS4X Enterprise, you need to install PAM support for authentification. If needed, do the following:
 cp /etc/pam.d/sshd /etc/pam.d/os4x

== OS4X installation ==
The following steps automates the installation process a little bit. Walk through the installation wizard with values you want (or default values; then just press enter on all questions).
 cd /tmp
 wget http://www.os4x.com/fileadmin/downloads/os4x3_full_pe_Linux-x86-64-MySQL.sh
 chmod 755 os4x3_full_pe_Linux-x86-64-MySQL.sh
 export OS4X_WEBGUI_DIR=/var/www/html/os4x
 mkdir $OS4X_WEBGUI_DIR
 ./os4x3_full_pe_Linux-x86-64-MySQL.sh
