# Installation The preferred way of installing Icinga Web 2 is to use the official package repositories depending on which operating
system and distribution you are running. But it is also possible to install Icinga Web 2 directly from source too.
## Requirements ## <a id="installation-requirements"></a> Installing Requirements
* Apache2 with PHP >= 5.3.0 enabled * A web server, e.g. Apache or nginx
* PHP Zend Framework * PHP >= 5.3.0
* PHP with MySQL or PostgreSQL libraries * MySQL or PostgreSQL PHP libraries when using a database for authentication or storing user preferences into a database
* MySQL or PostgreSQL server and client software * LDAP PHP library when using Active Directory or LDAP for authentication
* Icinga 1.x or Icinga 2 as backend providers * Icinga 1.x w/ Livestatus or IDO, Icinga 2 w/ Livestatus or IDO feature enabled
RHEL/CentOS requires the EPEL repository enabled (which provides the `php-ZendFramework` ## <a id="installation-from-package"></a> Installing Icinga Web 2 from Package
package). OpenSUSE requires the [server monitoring](https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/server:monitoring) repository (which provides the `php5-ZendFramework` package) enabled.
## configure && make A guide on how to install Icinga Web 2 from package will follow shortly.
### Basic installation ## <a id="installation-from-source"></a> Installing Icinga Web 2 from Source
If you like to configurea and install icinga2-web from the command line or **Step 1: Getting the Source**
if you want to create packages, configure and make is the best choice for installation.
./configure && make install && make install-apache2-config First of all, you need to download the sources. Icinga Web 2 is available through a Git repository. You can clone this
repository either via git or http protocol using the following URLs:
will install the application to the default target (/usr/local/icinga2-web). Also * git://git.icinga.org/icingaweb2.git
an apache configuration entry is added to your apache server, so you should restart * http://git.icinga.org/icingaweb2.git
your web server according to your systems configuration.
### Installation directory There is also a browsable version available at
[gi.icinga.org](https://git.icinga.org/?p=icingaweb2.git;a=summary "Icinga Web 2 Git Repository").
This version also offers snapshots for easy download which you can use if you do not have git present on your system.
If you want to install the application to a different directory, use the --prefix flag in your ````
configure call: git clone git://git.icinga.org/icingaweb2.git
````
./configure --prefix=/my/target/directory **Step 2: Install the Source**
Choose a target directory and move Icinga Web 2 there.
### Authentication ````
mv icingaweb2 /usr/share/icingaweb2
````
By default, icinga2-web will be installed to authenticate againts its internal database, **Step 3: Configuring the Web Server**
but you can configure it to use ldap-authentication by adding the `--with-ldap-authentication`
flag. You must provide the authentication details for your ldap server by using the --with-ldap-* flags.
To see a full list of the flags, call `./configure --help`
### Icinga backend Use `icingacli` to generate web server configuration for either Apache or nginx.
The default option for icinga2web is to configure all icinga backends with the default settings (for example *Apache*
/usr/local/icinga/ as the icinga directory) but only enable statusdat. To use a different backend,
call `--with-icinga-backend=` and provide ido, livestatus or statusdat as an option. To further configure
your backend, take a look at the various options described in `./configure --help`
### Databases ````
./bin/icingacli setup config webserver apache
````
It is required to set up all used Databases correctly, which basically means to create all needed user accounts and to *nginx*
create all database tables. You will find the installation guides for the different databases in the sections below:
*IMPORTANT*: Select a secure password instead of "icingaweb" and alter the config/authentication.ini accordingly. ````
./bin/icingacli setup config webserver nginx
````
**Step 4: Web Setup**
#### MySQL Visit Icinga Web 2 in your browser and complete installation using the web setup.
1. Create the user and the database
mysql -u root -p
mysql> CREATE USER `icingaweb`@`localhost` IDENTIFIED BY 'icingaweb';
mysql> CREATE DATABASE `icingaweb`;
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `icingaweb`.* TO `icingaweb`@`localhost`;
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
mysql> quit
2. Create all tables (You need to be in the icinga2-web folder)
> **Note**
>
> RPM packages install the schema into /usr/share/doc/icingaweb-&lt;version&gt;/schema
bash$ mysql -u root -p icingaweb < etc/schema/mysql.sql
#### PostgreSQL
1. Create the user and the database
sudo su postgres
psql
postgres=# CREATE USER icingaweb WITH PASSWORD 'icingaweb';
postgres=# CREATE DATABASE icingaweb;
postgres=# \q
2. Enable trust authentication on localhost
Add the following lines to your pg_hba.conf (etc/postgresql/X.x/main/pg_hba.conf under debian, /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf for Redhat/Fedora)
to enable trust authentication for the icingaweb user when connecting from the localhost.
local icingaweb icingaweb trust
host icingaweb icingaweb 127.0.0.1/32 trust
host icingaweb icingaweb ::1/128 trust
And restart your database ('service postgresql restart' or '/etc/init.d/postgresql-X.x reload' while being root)
3. Create all tables (You need to be in the icinga2-web folder)
> **Note**
>
> RPM packages install the schema into /usr/share/doc/icingaweb-&lt;version&gt;/schema
bash$ psql -U icingaweb -a -f etc/schema/pgsql.sql
