Description
- Webshare is an addon for SME Server that provides secure web accessible file and directory storage.
- Create and set permissions for each share via Server-manager GUI.
- Can handle many filetypes in the webbrowser.
Step-by-step HowTo for installation of Webshare on a fresh SMEserver 7.x.
Check latest releases at http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/releases/7/smecontribs/i386/RPMS/
Installation
1. Log in (with username root) to the SMEserver console.
2. Install smeserver-webshare from the smecontribs repo (which will also install the dependency perl-Apache-Htpasswd)
yum install --enablerepo=smecontribs smeserver-webshare
3. Instructions at the end of previous installation advises the following commands:
signal-event post-upgrade and signal-event reboot
but you can skip that (not necessary) and move on.
4. In a web browser login to server-manager as admin.
Under Collaboration there should be a new line named "Webshare".
Configure the webshare name, users and passwords.
5. Access the newly created webshare using https://www.yourdomain.com/webshare/websharename Upload and download files as required.
Check installed version
yum info installed smeserver-webshare yum info installed perl-Apache-Htpasswd
Uninstall
yum remove smeserver-webshare yum remove perl-Apache-Htpasswd
Adjusting upload file size
Default php settings in sme server will severely limit the file upload size.
These can be adjusted by db commands, see http://wiki.contribs.org/index.php?title=SME_Server:Documentation:Technical_Manual:Booklet#Php
To see the default settings do
config show php
The following commands will set a 50Mb file upload size.
As this includes system overheads, you should specify a value slightly larger than the maximum file size you wish to upload.
db configuration setprop php MaxExecutionTime 3600 db configuration setprop php MemoryLimit 50M db configuration setprop php PostMaxSize 50M db configuration setprop php UploadMaxFilesize 50M expand-template /etc/php.ini /etc/init.d/httpd-e-smith restart
Using with ibays & SME users
From this Italian forum post http://forums.contribs.org/index.php/topic,46399.msg227523.html#msg227523
are instructions re how to use webshare with an ibay and SME users, so the files/dirs are available also via samba
Create the custom template and fragment
mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf cd /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf pico 86WebSharealias
Contents of 86WebSharealias
{
my $db = esmith::ConfigDB->open_ro("WebShare")
or return "# webshare disabled\n";
my @webshare = $db->get_all_by_prop( type => 'WebShare' );
foreach $webshare (@webshare) {
#name
my $key = $webshare->key;
#use ibay?
my $useibay = $webshare->prop('UseIbay') || "no";
#use sme users?
my $smeusers = $webshare->prop('SmeUsers') || "no";
$OUT .= "# webshare\/$key\n";
if ( "$useibay" eq "no" ) {
$OUT .= "Alias \/webshare\/$key \/opt\/webshare\/$key\n";
$OUT .= "<Directory \/opt\/webshare\/$key>\n";
}
else {
$OUT .= "Alias \/webshare\/$key \/home\/e-smith\/files\/ibays\/$key\/html\n";
$OUT .= "<Directory \/home\/e-smith\/files\/ibays\/$key\/html>\n";
}
{
use esmith::util;
my $release = esmith::util::determineRelease();
if ( "$release" ge "7.0" ) {
$OUT .= " SSLRequireSSL\n";
}
else {
$OUT .= " RequireSSL on\n";
}
}
$OUT .= " Options +Indexes\n";
$OUT .= " AllowOverride None\n";
$OUT .= " order deny,allow\n";
$OUT .= " deny from all\n";
$OUT .= " allow from all\n";
$OUT .= " AuthName \"Restricted $key access only\"\n";
$OUT .= " AuthType Basic\n";
if ( "$smeusers" eq "no" ) {
$OUT .= " AuthUserFile \/home\/e-smith\/db\/webshare\/htpasswd.$key\n";
}
else {
$OUT .= " AuthExternal pwauth\n";
}
$OUT .= " Require valid-user\n";
$OUT .= " AddType application\/x-httpd-php \.php \.php3\n";
$OUT .= " php_flag magic_quotes_gpc on\n";
$OUT .= " php_flag track_vars on\n";
$OUT .= "<\/Directory>\n";
$OUT .= "\n";
}
}
Create an ibay in server manager with the name ibaywebsharename, with no password and enable php for it Note ibaywebsharename should be the same as websharename and ibayname
Configure the db setting, expand template & restart service
db WebShare setprop ibaywebsharename UseIbay yes SmeUsers yes expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf service httpd-e-smith restart
Copy files from original webshare in /opt to ibay
cd /opt/webshare/ibaywebsharename cp -a ./* /home/e-smith/ibays/ibaywebsharename/html/ cd /home/e-smith/files/ibays/ibaywebsharename/html rm index.html
Create a link
mv ./files ./files.old ln -s ../files
Access the ibay webshare via web browser with this URL (note to use https:)
https://yourdomain.com/webshare/websharename
Access the ibay webshare files locally via samba network share
\\servername\ibaywebsharename\files
