On Debian/Ubuntu type systems, it’s easiest to say “sudo apt install build-essential”. That brings in GCC and a bunch of other things useful for building software from source. > now it can't find ZLIB The normal pattern for library development files on Ubuntu/Debian type systems is “sudo apt install libz-dev” though there are exceptions. A quick check here against an Ubuntu 16.04 says that’s a suitable alias for the actual name, zlib1g-dev. You can try “apt-cache search zlib” and such to track this sort of thing down. I can’t give you a complete list of all the files you’ll need because I’ve obviously already installed all these libraries, often years ago, so I’d have to reinstall a fresh OS to recreate your situation and work my way out of it. Expect to need to do some of the research yourself here. > my website is already live with Apache Well, good luck with that, then. :) I won’t be rewriting the guide for Apache. The only reason I wrote it at all was to document what I did for my own ngnix based site, so that in another few years when I need to stand another one up, I’ll have those notes nicely backed up on multiple servers across the Internet. > don't I need to get some kind of certificates? That’s part of what Let’s Encrypt provides: https://letsencrypt.org/ > I think they can get kind of pricy Let’s Encrypt only provides Domain Validation, which is fine if all you want to do is encrypt your comms. If you want a cert that also trustably asserts real-world identity, then you need an OV or EV class cert, which requires background checks and such, which is why they’re not free. You can still pay certain parties for DV certs, but there’s little reason to do that now that we have Let’s Encrypt. > Would the FSLSRV script on its own suffice in /etc/rc.local, or would I have > to issue any commands to the system to put it in some kind of startup list? /etc/rc.local — if present and heeded on your system — is a shell script, so you can put anything there you could type at the command line. rc.local runs things as root, so to drop privileges to a normal user, you’d run it like so: su -c /path/to/fslsrv myuser where myuser is the name of the user you want to run fslsrv as. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
