# 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 an encrpyted filesystem LUKS + ext4.
|
|
|
|
## Preparations Software
|
|
|
|
### Install Debian Linux on the Mini-PC
|
|
|
|
Download the stable Debian at https://www.debian.org/
|
|
|
|
Create bootable USB drive with Debian on it. You could use the programm
|
|
unetbootin, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UNetbootin
|
|
|
|
Switch of 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 (recommended) or
|
|
- register a free subdomain
|
|
|
|
### Method 1: Get yourself an own Domain (recommended)
|
|
|
|
...for example at selfHOST.de
|
|
|
|
### Method 2 Register a (free) Subdomain
|
|
|
|
Register a free subdomain for example at
|
|
|
|
- freeDNS
|
|
- selfHOST
|
|
|
|
WATCH THIS: A free subdomain is not the prefered way to get a domain name. Why?
|
|
|
|
Let's encrpyt issues a limited number of certificates each
|
|
day. Possibly other users of this domain will try to issue a certificate
|
|
at the same day as you do. So make sure you choose a domain with as less subdomains as
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
## 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

|
|
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
