owncloud's Issues

Modify the default page for the web server so that it points to owncloud

Per https://doc.owncloud.org/server/10.0/admin_manual/installation/changing_the_web_route.html

https://forum.owncloud.org/viewtopic.php?t=27854

Create DB

Issue the command:

sudo mysql -u root -p

When prompted enter your sudo password and then the MySQL root user password. [When do I set the sql root user and pwd?]

When you are in the database command prompt, create the database with the command:

CREATE DATABASE owncloud;

Next create a new database user with the command:

CREATE USER 'ownclouduser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'PASSWORD';

Where PASSWORD is a strong password for the user.

Give the new user permissions for the new database with the command:

GRANT ALL ON owncloud.* TO 'ownclouduser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'PASSWORD' WITH GRANT OPTION;

Where PASSWORD is a strong password for the user.

Flush the privileges and exit the database shell with the commands:

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;

Download and install ownCloud

Test process from Ubuntu 18.04 to verify

Modify default port

in /etc/apache2/ports.conf, change the port from 'Listen 80' to 'Listen 8080'.

Then, in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf

change the first line to <VirtualHost *: 8080>

Now restart

sudo service apache2 restart

Installing dependencies

full suite of php packages must be upgraded to 7.2

On installation of Ubuntu 18.04, the PHP release is PHP 7.2-7-1. Make sure that all PHP modules are at 7.2 flavor. For this, we'll issue the command:

sudo apt install php7.2 libapache2-mod-php7.2 php7.2-common php7.2-mbstring php7.2-xmlrpc php7.2-soap php7.2-apcu php7.2-smbclient php7.2-ldap php7.2-redis php7.2-gd php7.2-xml php7.2-intl php7.2-json php7.2-imagick php7.2-mysql php7.2-cli php7.2-mcrypt php7.2-ldap php7.2-zip php7.2-curl

If some modules aren't found, remove them and then re-run.

Alternate plan if unable to fulfill original intent of publishing asciidoc version of content. Or consider publishing as a gist, which I believe provides full support for asciidoc by default.
