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 silly HowTo for installation of Webshare on a fresh SMEserver 7.1.3.
It reflects the experiences I've had during install and are probably not always applicable.
It's intended for Linux-newbies.
Check latest releases at http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/dmay/smeserver/7.x/
Replace filenames if you use other versions.
I don't use smedev for this install as advised by dmay
Installation
1. Log in (with username root) to the SMEserver console.
2. Download perl-Apache-Htpasswd (needed by package smeserver-webshare)
wget http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/dmay/smeserver/7.x/perl-Apache-Htpasswd-1.5.9-1.1.el3.rf.noarch.rpm
3. Install perl-Apache-Htpasswd
yum localinstall perl-Apache-Htpasswd-1.5.9-1.1.el3.rf.noarch.rpm
You will get a y/N-question, answer y if it looks fine.
Instructions at the end of previous installation advices the following commands:
"signal-event post-upgrade" and "signal-event reboot"
But you can ignore that and move on
4. Download smeserver-webshare
wget http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/dmay/smeserver/7.x/smeserver-webshare-1.0.0-8dmay.noarch.rpm
5. Install smeserver-webshare
yum localinstall smeserver-webshare-1.0.0-8dmay.noarch.rpm
You will get a y/N-question, answer y if it looks fine.
6. Instructions at the end of previous installation advices the following commands:
signal-event post-upgrade and signal-event reboot
but you can skip that (not necessary) and move on.
7. Open your webbrowser and go to the server-manager.
Under Collaboration there should be a new line named "Webshare".
