Setup Instructions

  1. Install the packages in the Package Requirements above
  2. Copy the folders above that aren't already configured to their equivalent location in /etc
  3. In /etc/nginx/sites-available/REPLACEME.TLD.conf and /etc/systemd/system/letsencrypt.service, replace instances of REPLACEME.TLD with the FQDN
  4. Rename /etc/nginx/sites-available/REPLACEME.TLD.conf so that REPLACEME.TLD is replaced with the FQDN
  5. Add your site files to /srv/http/REPLACEME.TLD where public assets are located in /srv/http/REPLACEME.TLD/public (replacing REPLACEME.TLD with the FQDN)
  6. Create a symlink from /etc/nginx/sites-available/REPLACEME.tld.conf to /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/REPLACEME.tld.conf (replacing REPLACEME.TLD with the FQDN)
  7. Run openssl dhparam -out /etc/nginx/dhparam.pem 4096 to generate the diffie-hellman parameter
  8. Run systemctl start php-fpm nginx to start the web services and systemctl status php-fpm and systemctl status nginx to check for errors
  9. If there were no errors in the previous command, run systemctl enable php-fpm nginx to enable the web services at boot
  10. Ensure the public web directory exists and run systemctl start letsencrypt to generate the SSL certificates
