On a new Ubuntu 13.04 Server, run as root:
# Create an oc user adduser oc # ... and specify a password. # update your system apt-get update apt-get upgrade # install some packages apt-get install postgresql nginx supervisor python virtualenvwrapper git python-dev libpq-dev libjpeg-dev libjpeg8 zlib1g-dev libfreetype6 libfreetype6-dev # Create postgres user sudo -iu postgres createuser oc -S -D -R # create postgres db and grant permisions sudo -iu postgres createdb opencommunity -O oc
For best luck, uncomment the following line in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:
server_names_hash_bucket_size 64;
In the same file(/etc/nginx/nginx.conf) add the following line inside the server definition: client_max_body_size 20M;
Le'ts install a send-only mail server as well:
apt-get install postfix # select Internet Site and your domain # make sure that myhostname = opencommunity.org.il here: vi /etc/postfix/main.cf # and reload your server /etc/init.d/postfix reload # test your mail server: sendmail youremail@gmail.com # enter some text # hit Ctrl+D # it's probably in your spam folder, don't panic.
Now log in as oc either via ssh or by running su - oc and execute:
# clone the repo to your home dir... git clone https://github.com/hasadna/OpenCommunity.git # ...go inside... cd OpenCommunity # create a virtualenv mkvirtualenv oc # your prompt should now start with (oc) # install the requirements pip install -r requirements.txt pip install -r deploy-requirements.txt # create a local settings file cp src/ocd/local_settings.py.example src/ocd/local_settings.py # now edit it: vi src/ocd/local_settings.py
It should look like this:
DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2', 'NAME': 'opencommunity', } } _host = 'www.opencommunity.org.il' HOST_URL = "http://%s" % _host ALLOWED_HOSTS = [_host] FROM_EMAIL = "noreply@opencommunity.org.il"
Let's make a directory for our uploads:
mkdir uploads chmod a+rwx uploads
Let's set up the database:
cd src python manage.py syncdb python manage.py migrate # Create a superuser to allow yourself an access to the admin python manage.py createsuperuser # And while we are here: python manage.py collectstatic --noinput
Let's set up a gunicorn server, back as root:
mkdir /var/log/opencommunity/ cp /home/oc/OpenCommunity/conf/nginx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/opencommunity ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/opencommunity /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/opencommunity cp /home/oc/OpenCommunity/conf/supervisor.conf /etc/supervisor/conf.d/opencommunity.conf # restart services service nginx start service supervisor stop service supervisor start
Now go to <http://opencommunity.org.il/>
