Install NextCloud 11 on Fedora 25 with SaltStack

CrimsonKidA

@scottalanmiller Thanks, I'll look at making a cron job for it to run at boot. I'm having to manually disable the firewall at each boot too, so that will need to be added. Salt master and minion are starting up on their own now, so that's good.

Let's fix the issue. That will be better than that anyway.

Try this. Hopefully it fixes both your firewall and service issues.

@scottalanmiller Thanks so much, Scott! Working perfectly now! Personally, I want a PING response, plus port 22 and 80 open, so I'm going to tweak IPtables, but it is coming back up after rebooting the VM.

Ping response I understand. Why port 80 though?

Not sure if it will get used outside our LAN yet. If so, I will close 80 and purchase an SSL cert.

scottalanmiller

Modifying your IPTables will get rolled back the next time you apply state. This section handles the firewall...

FedoraServer:
  firewalld.present:
    - name: FedoraServer
    - block_icmp:
      - echo-reply
      - echo-request
    - default: False
    - masquerade: True
    - ports:
      - 443/tcp
      - 22/tcp
      - 9090/tcp

Just add

- 80/tcp

To the end to open port 80. And remove "the block_icmp" section completely to fix ICMP Pings.

Don't purchase a cert, just use LetsEncrypt for free. It's all set up for that, including the tools already built in from the state.

CrimsonKidA

Oh very cool! I did not know that

CrimsonKidA

...in that case I may just use 443, yeah.

scottalanmiller

WIth mine, I add the certs once they are acquired to my state files and have them ensured by SaltStack so that if I need (or want) to migrate to a different server I can do so and it moves my full system, including the certs, with it. Still have to backup and restore the file data, of course.

You CAN run any commands via Salt, too. You can avoid logging in. Except your SaltMaster is on the same host, so that doesn't work

CrimsonKidA

Would I need to add something to the salt script to enable the "LDAP user and group backend" v1.1.2 app for NextCloud? I want SSO for our AD users, but NextCloud says "This app cannot be installed because the following dependencies are not fulfilled:
The library ldap is not available."

scottalanmiller

This should be the package that is missing: php-ldap.x86_64

scottalanmiller

So you can just add it to the package list...

install_network_packages:
  pkg.installed:
    - pkgs:
      - wget
      - unzip
      - firewalld
      - net-tools
      - php-ldap

Add it into the list as above. Anywhere in the list is fine. Then run your state again. This way it is added in, but if you need to rebuild your master file is ready to make everything for you.

scottalanmiller

I added the php-ldap package to the main directions.

Can someone break this down in plain English for those of us that aren't that smart?

After the o/s is installed, how do get here? "To use nextcloud.sls you will need to copy all three files to your /srv/salt/ directory as it will pull the two configuration files from there to put them on the server.

/srv/salt/nextcloud.sls"

This is a SaltStack state file (hence "with SaltStack" in the title.) So you would need to install SaltStack to do this. If you use the SaltStack tag here on the community, there are guides to installing a Salt Master and a Salt Minion (the minion is the server on which you would install NextCloud, for example.) I'm turning out guides regularly which basically completely manage your servers, so this can be worthwhile as building servers becomes pretty much zero work this way.
