Installation Procedure for FusionPBX under ClearOS6

1. Install a ClearOS, be sure to include in the installation the MySql, Web Server, Service Manager and Service Repository Modules, if not, you may do so through the Webconfig->Market Place Module (https://<your-ip-address>:81/app/marketplace).
2. Make sure the MySQL user root@localhost is passwordless, this can be done by:
   1. If a new Install: Leaving the password unchange.
   2. If the MySQL has been assigned (MySQL previusly installed) by the console or a SSH terminal command prompt:

if you already have one, make sure the MySQL user root@localhost is passwordless

1. Disable SELinux, edit /etc/selinux/config and make sure it is disabled. After this, you must reboot
2. Go to /etc/yum.repos.d (Or System->Operating System-> Software Repository via the ClearOS GUI and select the Detailed View) and enable at least next repos: clearos-epel, centos-scl, clearos-core, clearos-developer, clearos, clearos-updates, clearos-extras
3. Visit https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL and install the EPEL repository witch it fits your distro and architecture. For ClearOS6, choose CentOS 6.
4. Run rpm accordingly:
   • 32 bits
     Copy to clipboard

     rpm -ivh http://repo.okay.com.mx/centos/6/i386/release/okay-release-1-1.noarch.rpm?

   • 64 bits
     Copy to clipboard

     rpm -ivh http://repo.okay.com.mx/centos/6/x86_64/release/okay-release-1-1.noarch.rpm?

5. Type yum install fusionpbx-all and wait

Remember to start your freeswitch daemon and make sure at least MySQL/MariaDB, Memcached, Apache and Freeswitch will start when booting your system. You can do this with the chkconfig command.

You can access your FusionPBX installation using the http://<your_ip>/fusionpbx/. As default user use: superadmin, and as default password: superadmin.
Remember to change them.

Initial feedback

1. Manual disabling of SELinux is OK for now, but later, we'll investigate this more (how to keep as much security as possible)
2. When something is doable via the ClearOS GUI, please document that instead (ultimately, we want 100% in the GUI). For the rest, it should be as much as possible commands that we can copy-paste from the wiki to the command line.
   • Ex.: activating repos can be done from: https://example:81/app/software_repository
3. 32-bits is very low priority. Either we add a general note indicate that the admin should manually change the path or we have two boxes like this:
   • 32 bits
     Copy to clipboard

     rpm -ivh http://repo.okay.com.mx/centos/6/i386/release/okay-release-1-1.noarch.rpm?

   • 64 bits
     Copy to clipboard

     rpm -ivh http://repo.okay.com.mx/centos/6/x86_64/release/okay-release-1-1.noarch.rpm?

4. chkconfig: please document with https://example:81/app/services
5. In some cases, FusionPBX will be installed on a fresh box
   • Some firewall ports should be opened on https://example:81/app/incoming_firewall
   • Dependencies should be documented. Ex.: go to https://example:81/app/marketplace and add MySQL, PHP, Software Repository, etc.
     • This will eventually become a Quick Select File
6. In some cases, FusionPBX will be installed on a running system
   • This system likely already has MySQL running, and not Passwordless MySQL root: I am surprised ClearOS even permits this?
     • Is there a way to input real MySQL root password during the process? Even in cases where passwordless root works, there should be a step in the documentation to set a password afterwards ex.:
       • First step Visit https://example.org:81/app/mysql and change your password to an empty value (blank)
       • Last step Visit https://example.org:81/app/mysql and set your password to something else than blank
7. You indicate to add epel and clearos-epel. I wonder what epel brings that clearos-epel doesn't?
