Installing Snipe-IT on CentOS 7 and MariaDB

larsen161

when heading to Step 3, Create Admin User, the server defaults to an http connection. Is there anyway to configure snipe with https before getting to the setup page for the first user?

I think you can modify the .env file to use https://your-ip (or installation name).

In your .env config file, you would change APP_URL=http://snipeit.domain.com to APP_URL=https://snipeit.domain.com

@romo Worked first time. The -u apache was what I was missing in my code.

What is the best practice for restoring backups?

It looks like exporting and importing CSV you lose some data. I am obviously not super familiar with linux but can probably figure out SSH if that is preferred method?

Greetings of the Day!

We installed snipe-it but the pre-flight check page is not appearing.

The below command we used to install...

setenforce 0
mkdir -p /var/www/html; cd /var/www/html/
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/snipe/snipe-it/master/install.sh && chmod 744 install.sh && ./install.sh

nano /var/log/httpd/snipeIT.error.log

You don't need to run

setenforce 0
mkdir -p /var/www/html; cd /var/www/html/

The script handles selinux setup on CentOS 7.

I just tested it and successfully install on CentOS 7. Can you provide the output of /var/log/snipeit-install.log ?

tiagom

@robblehead You restore the database and then restore the files to the appropriate place. I don't have a backup in front of me but the file structure is preserved in the backup.

If you're extracting on windows don't use the builtin unzip. You need to use 7zip or another file archiver.

SnipeIT currently as far as i am aware does not have an automated restore backup feature.

@rejivincentc The install script on Fedora and CentOS works perfectly. I do not know what your problem is. You are obviously doing something abnormal.

Please find the log...

After installing the setup page is not coming, it is just blank.

Securing MariaDB.

NOTE: RUNNING ALL PARTS OF THIS SCRIPT IS RECOMMENDED FOR ALL MariaDB
SERVERS IN PRODUCTION USE! PLEASE READ EACH STEP CAREFULLY!

In order to log into MariaDB to secure it, we'll need the current
password for the root user. If you've just installed MariaDB, and
you haven't set the root password yet, the password will be blank,
so you should just press enter here.

Enter current password for root (enter for none):
OK, successfully used password, moving on...

Setting the root password ensures that nobody can log into the MariaDB
root user without the proper authorisation.

Set root password? [Y/n] y
New password:
Re-enter new password:
Password updated successfully!
Reloading privilege tables..
... Success!

By default, a MariaDB installation has an anonymous user, allowing anyone
to log into MariaDB without having to have a user account created for
them. This is intended only for testing, and to make the installation
go a bit smoother. You should remove them before moving into a
production environment.

Remove anonymous users? [Y/n] y
... Success!

Normally, root should only be allowed to connect from 'localhost'. This
ensures that someone cannot guess at the root password from the network.

Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n] y
... Success!

By default, MariaDB comes with a database named 'test' that anyone can
access. This is also intended only for testing, and should be removed
before moving into a production environment.

Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n] y

Dropping test database...
... Success!
Removing privileges on test database...
... Success!

Reloading the privilege tables will ensure that all changes made so far
will take effect immediately.

Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n] y
... Success!

Cleaning up...

All done! If you've completed all of the above steps, your MariaDB
installation should now be secure.

Thanks for using MariaDB!

DNS has nothing to do with the install working or not. Your install looks like it worked just fine.

Clean install with newest version of SnipeIT using install.sh

Everything went well setup completed and could login with no issues. I had to reboot the server and now I get a Whoops at the login screen, debug mode shows: "UnexpectedValueException" which looks like there may be a permission issue. I am not sure why rebooting the server would have caused this and definitely not having any luck getting it back up. Suggestions?
