Use ownCloud to install your personal cloud service in Linux

OwnCloud is a free open-source software for sharing files, calendars, contacts, bookmarks and personal audio/video. It is easy to install and manage.

Prerequisites

In this tutorial, I use CentOS 6.5 minimal server to install ownCloud. The following is my testing machine information.

Operating system: CentOS 6.5 Minimal InstallationIP Address: 192.168.1.101/24

After testing on CentOS 6.5 for a period of time, ownCloud applies to all RPM-based releases.

Your service should work on LAMP. Refer to the following link to install the LAMP service.

Get ownCloud

Switch to your apache root directory and download the latest version of ownCloud.

Go to the Apache root file directory and download the latest version of ownCloud.

# wget http://download.owncloud.org/community/owncloud-6.0.0a.tar.bz2

Run the following command to decompress the tar package:

# tar xvf owncloud-6.0.0a.tar.bz2

Move the decompressed directory to your apache root directory (for example,/var/www/html /)

# mv owncloud/ /var/www/html/

Set the directory ownership and permissions:

# chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/owncloud/# chmod 777 /var/www/html/owncloud/config/

Enable the apache rewrite mode.

Edit the file "/etc/httpd/conf/httpd. conf ",

# vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Find and modify AllowOverride None to Allowoverride All.

[...]     AllowOverride All[...]

Finally, restart the apachehttpd and mysql services.
