Important Notes

Before installing, read the Hubzilla installation instructions for important information about

  • SSL certificate validation requirement (now with support for Let's Encrypt!). See Installation section below.
  • Dedicated domain (must install under web root like https://hub.example.com/ not https://example.com/hub/ )
  • Required packages (all of these are not yet installed by this YunoHost installer package). This YunoHost package installs the following additional packages:
    • php5-cli
    • php5-imagick
    • php5-gd
    • php5-mcrypt
  • This package requires a system-wide change to php.ini that enables the exec() perimission. See the PHP manual for more information.

Installation

Register a new domain and add it to YunoHost

Hubzilla requires a dedicated domain, so obtain one and add it using the YunoHost admin panel. Domains -> Add domain As Hubzilla uses the full domain and is installed on the root, you can create a subdomain such as hubzilla.domain.tld Don't forget to update your DNS if you manage them manually

Hubzilla requires browser approved ssl certificates. If you have pauid for these, install them manualmly as usually.

YunoHost >=2.5 :

If not, once the dedicated domain has been added to yunohost, go again to the admin panel, go to domains then select you domain and click on "install let's encrypt certificate"

Yunohost <2.5 :

Once you have added the new domain to YunoHost, SSH into your YunoHost server and perform the following steps:

  1. Install certbot to make installing free SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt simple.

  2. Stop nginx

     service nginx stop

  3. Run the certbot utility with the certonly option

     certbot certonly

  4. Copy the generated certificate and key into the appropriate location for YunoHost to use

     cp /etc/letsencrypt/live/YOUR_DOMAIN/fullchain.pem /etc/yunohost/certs/YOUR_DOMAIN/crt.pem 
 cp /etc/letsencrypt/live/YOUR_DOMAIN/privkey.pem /etc/yunohost/certs/YOUR_DOMAIN/key.pem

  5. Restart nginx

     service nginx start

Install the Hubzilla application

Use the YunoHost admin panel to install Hubzilla by entering the GitHub repo address in the custom app URL

	https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/hubzilla-yunohost

Make sure to select your domain from the previous section as the application domain. Also set the application to Public.

When installation is complete, you will need to visit your new hub and register a new account using the email address you specified in the app installation form. You should then be able to log in and create your first channel.
