-
-*Note:* these installation instructions are also available in executable
- form for use with vagrant under `vagrant/Install-on-Centos-7.sh`.
-
-Installing the Required Software
-================================
-
-These instructions expect that you have a freshly installed CentOS version 7.
-Make sure all packages are up-to-date by running:
-
- sudo yum update -y
-
-The standard CentOS repositories don't contain all the required packages,
-you need to enable the EPEL repository as well. To enable it on CentOS,
-install the epel-release RPM by running:
-
- sudo yum install -y epel-release
-
-Now you can install all packages needed for Nominatim:
-
- sudo yum install -y postgresql-server postgresql-contrib postgresql-devel postgis postgis-utils \
- git cmake make gcc gcc-c++ libtool policycoreutils-python \
- php-pgsql php php-pear php-pear-DB php-intl libpqxx-devel proj-epsg \
- bzip2-devel proj-devel geos-devel libxml2-devel boost-devel expat-devel zlib-devel
-
-If you want to run the test suite, you need to install the following
-additional packages:
-
- sudo yum install -y python-pip python-Levenshtein python-psycopg2 \
- python-numpy php-phpunit-PHPUnit
- pip install --user --upgrade pip setuptools lettuce==0.2.18 six==1.9 \
- haversine Shapely pytidylib
- sudo pear install PHP_CodeSniffer
-
-
-System Configuration
-====================
-
-The following steps are meant to configure a fresh CentOS installation
-for use with Nominatim. You may skip some of the steps if you have your
-OS already configured.
-
-Creating Dedicated User Accounts
---------------------------------
-
-Nominatim will run as a global service on your machine. It is therefore
-best to install it under its own separate user account. In the following
-we assume this user is called nominatim and the installation will be in
-/srv/nominatim. To create the user and directory run:
-
- sudo useradd -d /srv/nominatim -s /bin/bash -m nominatim
-
-You may find a more suitable location if you wish.
-
-To be able to copy and paste instructions from this manual, export
-user name and home directory now like this:
-
- export USERNAME=nominatim
- export USERHOME=/srv/nominatim
-
-**Never, ever run the installation as a root user.** You have been warned.
-
-Make sure that system servers can read from the home directory:
-
- chmod a+x $USERHOME
-
-Setting up PostgreSQL
----------------------
-
-CentOS does not automatically create a database cluster. Therefore, start
-with initializing the database, then enable the server to start at boot:
-
- sudo postgresql-setup initdb
- sudo systemctl enable postgresql
-
-
-Next tune the postgresql configuration, which is located in
-`/var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf`. See section *Postgres Tuning* in
-[the installation page](Installation.md) for the parameters to change.
-
-Now start the postgresql service after updating this config file.
-
- sudo systemctl restart postgresql
-
-
-Finally, we need to add two postgres users: one for the user that does
-the import and another for the webserver which should access the database
-only for reading:
-
-
- sudo -u postgres createuser -s $USERNAME
- sudo -u postgres createuser apache
-
-
-Setting up the Apache Webserver
--------------------------------
-
-You need to create an alias to the website directory in your apache
-configuration. Add a separate nominatim configuration to your webserver:
-
-```
-sudo tee /etc/httpd/conf.d/nominatim.conf << EOFAPACHECONF
-<Directory "$USERHOME/Nominatim/build/website">
- Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews
- AddType text/html .php
- DirectoryIndex search.php
- Require all granted
-</Directory>
-
-Alias /nominatim $USERHOME/Nominatim/build/website
-EOFAPACHECONF
-```
-
-
-
-
-Then reload apache
-
-
- sudo systemctl restart httpd
-
-
-Adding SELinux Security Settings
---------------------------------
-
-It is a good idea to leave SELinux enabled and enforcing, particularly
-with a web server accessible from the Internet. At a minimum the
-following SELinux labeling should be done for Nominatim:
-
- sudo semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t "$USERHOME/Nominatim/(website|lib|settings)(/.*)?"
- sudo semanage fcontext -a -t lib_t "$USERHOME/Nominatim/module/nominatim.so"
- sudo restorecon -R -v $USERHOME/Nominatim
-
-
-Installing Nominatim
-====================
-
-Building and Configuration
---------------------------
-
-Get the source code from Github and change into the source directory
-
-
-
- cd $USERHOME
- git clone --recursive git://github.com/openstreetmap/Nominatim.git
- cd Nominatim
-
-
-
-
-
-When installing the latest source from github, you also need to
-download the country grid:
-
-
- wget -O data/country_osm_grid.sql.gz https://www.nominatim.org/data/country_grid.sql.gz
-
-
-The code must be built in a separate directory. Create this directory,
-then configure and build Nominatim in there:
-
-
- mkdir build
- cd build
- cmake $USERHOME/Nominatim
- make
-
-You need to create a minimal configuration file that tells nominatim
-the name of your webserver user and the URL of the website:
-
-```
-tee settings/local.php << EOF
-<?php
- @define('CONST_Database_Web_User', 'apache');
- @define('CONST_Website_BaseURL', '/nominatim/');
-EOF
-```
-
-
-Nominatim is now ready to use. Continue with
-[importing a database from OSM data](Import-and-Update.md).
