* docs: Added handling of user_dev permissionsJim Campbell2015-05-261-6/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | The user_dev directory gets created when users get established and they start uploading media. However, the permissions aren't correct on the directory as it gets created. As a workaround, we create the directory at this stage, and then set the proper permissions. See this mailing list post for more information: http://lists.mediagoblin.org/pipermail/devel/2015-May/001201.html
* docs: Updated permissions. Tweaked install detailsJim Campbell2015-05-191-9/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added nginx to installation packages. We say that our install uses nginx, so users should skip nginx if they want to use apache. Also, our group permissions depend on a web server being installed. Changed install directory for mediagoblin acct to /var/lib/mediagoblin It works better if we need to back up data. Assigned mediagoblin user to the same group as the web server. This is needed so that the server can access uploaded media. Created mediagoblin group for non-web-server things such as logs.
* docs: Removed systemcl enable/start. Already issued.Jim Campbell2015-05-181-5/+0
| | | | | | Debian-based platforms start the postgres server by default after installation. For RPM-based distros, we've already issued these commands prior to configuring the postgres server.
* docs: Need to start postgres on rpm distrosJim Campbell2015-05-181-3/+5
| | | | | | | Need to enable / start postgres database on rpm-based distros before you create the postgres mediagoblin user and database. If you don't start the database server, you can't create a database user or database.
* docs: Clean up nginx instructionsJim Campbell2015-05-111-9/+25
| | | | | | Made it more clear what commands to use if you're on deb/rpm-based system. Added a note that shows the user how to test their nginx configuration.
* docs: Added 'sudo' to cmd. Made 'exit' from postgres acct more clear.Jim Campbell2015-05-111-1/+6
| | | | | Added a missing reference to 'sudo' in a command. Made the exit from the postgres account more clear to reduce the chance for user error.
* docs: Removed chkconfig cmd. Made 'exit' more explicit.Jim Campbell2015-05-111-7/+4
| | | | | | | | | | The chkconfig command is only needed on CentOS 6, which isn't really a supported multimedia platform. CentOS 7 and Fedora 21+ wouldn't require this command. Also made the "exit" command (used after setting up the postgres mediagoblin account and database) more explicit. This will help prevent user errors for users who may skim through the documentation.
* docs: Copy paste.ini to paste_local.iniJim Campbell2015-05-111-4/+5
| | | | | | | Some scripts on the internet have referenced paste_local.ini, so it is safer to have a copy on the filesystem by default, even if the user doesn't need to change any of the values for a regular setup.

* docs: Require nodejs-legacy on Debian-based systems. Remove un-needed text.Jim Campbell2015-04-191-7/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | Per this announcement [0], Debian is using 'nodejs-legacy' as a compatability package for what they used to call 'node'. - Fixes bug 5080 [1]. Remove note about warning that users would no longer see. [0] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=614907#108 [1] https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/5080
* docs: Updated deployment docs to use sudo. Other various fixes.Jim Campbell2015-04-191-46/+57
| | | | | | | - Use sudo instead of root user but give info on how to configure sudo. - Changed docs to reference Jessie as the stable version of Debian - Corrected the command to create the 'mediagoblin' system account - Fixes https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/5083

* | docs: Removed note about installing from master. Clarified root/nonroot usage.Jim Campbell2015-03-301-31/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There was a note informing the user that they should be aware that we encourage them to install from the *master* branch, but we no longer do that. If they follow our deployment docs, they will pull in & use the *stable* branch. Also clarified some root / non-root system usage by either specifying a leading *hash* symbol to indicate a root-based command, or a dollar sign to indicate a non-root command.
* | docs: Updated instructions re: Postgresql setupJim Campbell2015-03-301-16/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added information about needed packages for RPM-based systems, and simplified instructions to rely on the root account rather than sudo-based instructions. If a user has sudo access, they can easily add "sudo" to the needed commands. Also added information about enabling postgres to start on boot and how to start it for the current session.
* | docs: Switched to 'useradd', as it is a more cross-distro cmd.Jim Campbell2015-03-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'adduser' is installed on Debian-based systems by default, but is not installed by default on Fedora-based systems. 'useradd' is installed by default on Debian-based systems, as well. The 'useradd'-based command provides the same functionality as 'adduser' in this case, though setting up a 'system' user with no password. Per bug 886, I've added the '--user-group' flag, which creates a mediagoblin group, and assigns the mediagoblin user to this group, too.
* | docs: Added npm/nodejs as a dependency. Also added automake.Jim Campbell2015-03-291-2/+3

* Make chown more generic.Elrond2014-07-301-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | Some distributions (ubuntu 14.04 maybe?) don't create a group for a new user. So change the "chown" to use the primary group of the user instead of forcing the group. This should do the right thing in more cases. Old: chown mediagoblin:mediagoblin New: chown mediagoblin:
