Building functioning OwnCloud within 24 hours... or less...help?

rpm --import https://download.owncloud.org/download/repositories/stable/CentOS_7/repodata/repomd.xml.key

Not working.

not to disrupt things, but since we discussed ownCloud, OC has mostly collapsed and most of the team moved to NextCloud. I would consider any previous advice to use ownCloud to actually refer to NextCloud unless someone clarifies otherwise. NextCloud is fully open source, doesn't have different versions and is under heavy development. I would start with that.

First time hearing that. I'll look into it now.

The problem with NextCloud is that there is not a repository based solution for it.

You have to install from sources.

Oh that sucks. Still doable, but not nearly as nice.

Correct, and it is very low on my priority list for at least a month if not more.

OwnCloud still works perfectly fine.

You configure the host file with

vi /etc/hosts

You probably need to update the configuration for the ethernet adapter

vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

At a minimum you'll need these lines set correctly in the ifcfg-eth0 file

TYPE=Ethernet
BOOTPROTO=static
DEVICE=eth0
IPADDR=ipaddress
NETMASK=subnet
GATEWAY=gatewayaddress
DNS1=firstdns
DNS2=seconddns

 systemctl reload network

Hopefully that will get your network up and running. If not we're going to have to get a lot more information.

working now. Thanks!

I've kinda been there, done that bit sooo many times.

Thanks Travis. I found my stupid problem. First I don't have my glasses on and I could not differentiate lower and capital -o and -O. Second, I didn't put CentOS_7 with capital C,O,S.

After realizing that rpm --inport works just fine.

I saw couple Linux series posts from SAM. I tried to follow, but because I do not use it on a daily basis it doesn't rub well on me.

Hmmm... followed every steps but site doesn't load.

Too tired. Will try again tomorrow. Zzzz

In addition to the above.

1. Use an SSH client to connect after the bare VM is running, stop using Hyper-V console. You cannot easily copy/paste.
2. Follow my guide as linked previously.
3. Copy and paste commands, do not retype them.

No. Just that Linux isn't within my proximity during day job. Learning Linux becomes more of a hobby for me. What was missing? Don't think so. Confusing? A bit due to lack of first hand experience. Like learning German in a country that does not speak German... I guess.

As I mentioned I am fairly new to these things. I have zero (except basic online java course) experience in programming. You could say I only know enough to get through my day.

Since the past 24 hours I know and understand the purpose of yum and wget through multiple attempts of installing ownCloud. It will works eventually. Also, I do enjoy dirty-ing my hands. I learned a lot, and not going to stop until I got ownCloud working the way I want it...or after completing SAM's linux series.
