Installing Bluecherry from the Bluecherry repository

Download the package information

Download_the_package_information_display Zoom

Once you successfully completed the online signup form you are given download instructions. Running the commands on the server (using a terminal window) will download the package information from our server

Installing the server

Installing_the_server_display

Open a terminal window (Applications -> Accessories ->Terminal) and type: sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install bluecherry solo6010-dkms

Hit 'Y' when asked if you want to continue. If you are asked to install packages without verification, answer 'Y' to this question

If you do not already have mysql-server installed you will be prompted to create a password for the 'root' MySQL account. While Ubuntu lists this as optional, it is recommended that you set a password.

You will now be asked to configure Bluecherry. You must hit Yes, or the installation process will fail.

Enter the database administrative password that you set previously for the 'root' user.

Enter the password that you want to create for the bluecherry database. This can be the same password that you provided for the root MySQL account, but we recommend keeping the password unique. You will be asked to enter this password twice to verify the password matched.

At this point the bluecherry server will be installed. If you plan to install the client on the same system, then please follow the client installation guide. ** TODO**
