This message will be shown on success:

[OK] Stack ready for Chevereto!

Common

• The scripts at common/ will work under any unix-like system
• Requires curl and unzip

New

The new.sh script downloads Chevereto and configures Apache HTTP Web server, MySQL, cron. Its purpose is to prepare Chevereto for HTTP setup.

This is intended to brand new installations and it should run after prepare as it assumes that the system stack is ready.

Notes

On the server:

• The web root is located at /var/www/html

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chevereto/vps/4.0/common/get.sh)

Cloudflare remote IP

The cf-remoteip.sh script syncs the known IPs for CloudFlare remote IP. This must be used if you are using CloudFlare.

Warning: If you use CloudFlare and not complete this setup, your Chevereto installation won't be able to retrieve the real visitor IP.

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chevereto/vps/4.0/common/cf-remoteip.sh)

Save the above script in your VPS and run it on cron to keep these ranges auto updated.

curl -f -SOJL \
    --output-dir /etc/apache2 \
