This is a Ansible playbook for configuring a stock Debian 12 (bookworm)
|
||
|
|
cloud image to install NextCloud under a LAMP stack.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE! The stanzas reponsible for creating the /data filesystem on vdb in
|
||
|
|
roles/system/tasks/main.yml have been commented out for testing, remember
|
||
|
|
to uncomment them before you run this in production.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This was tested on a Debian-derived x86_64 system with 8GB RAM and 4 cores
|
||
|
|
under QEMU/KVM.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To test this playbook on a Debian-based OS using QEMU/KVM, do the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Install the following packages if not already installed:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* ansible
|
||
|
|
* ansible-lint
|
||
|
|
* cloud-init
|
||
|
|
* cloud-guest-utils
|
||
|
|
* cloud-image-utils
|
||
|
|
* qemu-system-x86_64
|
||
|
|
* qemu-utils
|
||
|
|
* ssh
|
||
|
|
* ssh-askpass
|
||
|
|
* wget
|
||
|
|
* whois (for mkpasswd)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Copy the file cloud-init.cfg from the data/ directory
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE! this is a YAML file, proper spacing is required!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The hashed password was created using
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
$ mkpasswd -m sha-512
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Create the seed image:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
cloud-localds seed.iso cloud-init.cfg
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Download the latest debian 12 cloud image if you haven't done so already:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
wget https://cloud.debian.org/images/cloud/bookworm/latest/debian-12-generic-amd64.qcow2
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NOTE! Do *NOT* try to use the generic cloud image, it will *NOT* work!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Copy the cloud image because cloud-init will change the image the first
|
||
|
|
time you run it under QEMU:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
cp debian-12-generic-amd64.qcow2 test.qcow2
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The cloud image is only something like 2GB and installing anything
|
||
|
|
substantial on it will fail, so you need to resize it:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
qemu-img resize test.qcow2 10G
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Start the VM:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
qemu-system-x86_64 \
|
||
|
|
-name test \
|
||
|
|
-machine pc-q35-5.2,accel=kvm \
|
||
|
|
-cpu host \
|
||
|
|
-m 4096 \
|
||
|
|
-nographic \
|
||
|
|
-boot strict=on \
|
||
|
|
-drive file=test.qcow2,format=qcow2,media=disk \
|
||
|
|
-drive file=seed.iso,media=cdrom \
|
||
|
|
-nic user,ipv6=off,model=e1000,hostfwd=tcp:127.0.0.1:6666-:22,hostfwd=tcp:${SSH_HOST}:8080-:80
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- After the VM has started and cloud-init has finished and you see a login
|
||
|
|
prompt, do the following in another terminal to run the ansible playbook:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
export ANSIBLE_HOST_KEY_CHECKING=False
|
||
|
|
ansible-playbook site.yml --user installer --ask-pass -i hosts
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
when it asks you for the SSH password, type "password"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- If the installation is successful, it will print the MariaDB root and
|
||
|
|
nextcloud user's passwords. Be sure to copy these down, you will need
|
||
|
|
them when you configure NextCloud from your browser. The NextCloud
|
||
|
|
database is "nextcloud" and the user is "nextcloud".
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Once the VM is running, you can ssh to it using the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
ssh-keygen -f "${HOME}/.ssh/known_hosts" -R "[127.0.0.1]:6666"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ssh installer@127.0.0.1 -p 6666
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
the password is "password"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After Ansible finishes installing NextCloud, you will be able to reach the
|
||
|
|
webserver running on the VM by going to localhost:8080 in your browser.
|
||
|
|
Follow the onscreen directions to finish configuring NextCloud using the
|
||
|
|
database passwords Ansible provides at the end of the installation.
