# Hubzilla at Home next to your Router
Run hubzilla-setup.sh for an unattended installation of hubzilla.
The script is known to work with Debian 9 stable (Stretch)
+ Home-PC (Debian-9.2-amd64)
+ Raspian (Debian-9.3 on a Rapberry 3)
This script is not recommended for Debian 8 (Jessie) any longer.
# Step-by-Step Overwiew
## Preconditions
Hardware
+ Internet connection and router at home
+ Mini-pc connected to your router (a Raspberry 3 will do it too)
+ USB drive for backups
Software
+ Fresh installation of Debian 9 (Stretch) on your mini-pc
+ Router with open ports 80 and 443 for your Debian
## The basic steps (quick overview)
+ Register your own domain (for example at selfHOST) or a free subdomain (for example at freeDNS)
+ Log on to your new debian (server)
- apt-get install git
- mkdir -p /var/www
- cd /var/www
- git clone https://github.com/redmatrix/hubzilla.git html
- cp .homeinstall/hubzilla-config.txt.template .homeinstall/hubzilla-config.txt
- nano .homeinstall/hubzilla-config.txt
- Read the comments carefully
- Enter your values: db pass, domain, values for dyn DNS
- hubzilla-setup.sh as root
- ... wait, wait, wait until the script is finised
- reboot
+ Open your domain with a browser and step throught the initial configuration of hubzilla.
# Step-by-Step in Detail
## Preparations Hardware
### Mini-PC
### Recommended: USB Drive for Backups
The installation will create a daily backup.
If the backup process does not find an external device than the backup goes to
the internal disk.
The USB drive must be compatible with the filesystems
- ext4 (if you do not want to encrypt the USB)
- LUKS + ext4 (if you want to encrypt the USB)
## Preparations Software
### Install Debian Linux on the Mini-PC
Download the stable Debian at https://www.debian.org/
(Debian 8 is no longer supported.)
Create bootable USB drive with Debian on it.You could use
- unetbootin, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UNetbootin
- or simply the linux command "dd"
Example for command dd...
su -
dd if=2017-11-29-raspbian-stretch.img of=/dev/mmcblk0
Do not forget to unmount the SD card before and check if unmounted like in this example...
su -
umount /dev/mmcblk0*
df -h
Switch off your mini pc, plug in your USB drive and start the mini pc from the
stick. Install Debian. Follow the instructions of the installation.
### Configure your Router
Open the ports 80 and 443 on your router for your Debian
## Preparations Dynamic IP Address
Your Hubzilla must be reachable by a domain that you can type in your browser
cooldomain.org
You can use subdomains as well
my.cooldomain.org
There are two way to get a domain
- buy a domain, or
- register a free subdomain
### Method 1: Buy an own Domain
...for example buy at selfHOST.de
The cost are around 10,- € once and 1,50 € per month (2017).
### Method 2 Register a (free) Subdomain
...for example register at freeDNS
Follow the instructions in .homeinstall/hubzilla-config.txt.
## Install Hubzilla on your Debian
Login to your debian
(Provided your username is "you" and the name of the mini pc is "debian". You
could take the IP address instead of "debian")
ssh -X you@debian
Change to root user
su -l
Install git
apt-get install git
Make the directory for apache and change diretory to it
mkdir /var/www
cd /var/www/
Clone hubzilla from git ("git pull" will update it later)
git clone https://github.com/redmatrix/hubzilla html
Change to the install script
cd html/.homeinstall/
Copy the template file
cp hubzilla-config.txt.template hubzilla-config.txt
Change the file "hubzilla-config.txt". Read the instructions there carefully and enter your values.
nano hubzilla-config.txt
Run the script
./hubzilla-setup.sh
Wait... The script should not finish with an error message.
In a webbrowser open your domain.
Expected: A test page of hubzilla is shown. All checks there should be
successfull. Go on...
Expected: A page for the Hubzilla server configuration shows up.
Leave db server name "127.0.0.1" and port "0" untouched.
Enter
- DB user name = hubzilla
- DB pass word = This is the password you entered in "hubzilla-config.txt"
- DB name = hubzilla
Leave db type "MySQL" untouched.
Follow the instructions in the next pages.
## Note for the Rasperry
The script was tested with an Raspberry 3 under Raspian (Debian 9.3, 2017-11-29-raspbian-stretch.img).
It is recommended to deinstall these programms to avoid endless updates. Use...
sudo apt-get purge wolfram-engine sonic-pi
sudo apt-get autoremove
It is recommended to run the Raspi without graphical frontend (X-Server). Use...
sudo raspi-config
to boot the Rapsi to the client console.
DO NOT FORGET TO CHANGE THE DEFAULT PASSWORD FOR USER PI!
