How to use Gitblog and markdown to build your own blog _php instance

Below to share how to use Gitblog and markdown to build their own blog, how everyone has a server or cloud platform to provide the cloud host, I recommend that you use linux+ Nginx to run Gitblog, if you are currently only Apache environment can also.

Domain Name resolution

You are ready to resolve the domain name to your host IP, recommend the use of Dnspod to manage and monitor your domain name, the specific use of reference Dnspod official documentation, very simple.

nginx+php Operating Environment

First install your nginx and PHP environment, PHP version requires more than 5.3. If you have not installed, Google search for relevant tutorials, you can also refer to Nginx and PHP official documents. This is the first step, there is a normal nginx + PHP operating environment.

Configure Nginx

Nginx can refer to the following configuration:

server {
 listen    ;
 server_name jockchou.gitblog.cn;
 root/data/vhosts/jockchou.gitblog.cn;
 Index index.html index.htm index.php;
 Location ~ \. (Jpg|png|gif|js|css|swf|flv|ico) $ {
   expires 12h;
 }
 Location/{
  if (!-e $request _filename) {
     rewrite ^ (. *) $/index.php?$1 last;
     break;
  }
 }
 Location ~* ^/(Doc|logs|app|sys)/{return
  403;
 }
 Location ~. *\. (PHP|PHP5)? $
 {
  fastcgi_connect_timeout;
  Fastcgi_send_timeout;
  Fastcgi_read_timeout;
  Fastcgi_pass  127.0.0.1:9000;
  Fastcgi_index index.php;
  Fastcgi_param script_filename $document _root$fastcgi_script_name;
  Include Fastcgi_params;
 }
}

Change the server_name and root in the above configuration to your own, fastcgi_pass your CGI process port.

Permission configuration

Because the Gitblog cache mechanism needs to write the App/cache directory, check and modify the permissions of this directory if necessary to ensure that your PHP has permission to write this directory. Usually you only need to modify the owner and group of this directory into a CGI run account.

Run

After the above configuration, start your nginx and CGI services, upload gitblog source code to the site directory, through the browser to resolve to the local Domain name Observation page effect. If the page does not display correctly, check your CGI and Nginx configuration with the error code.
