Installing Atlassian STASH, rake when installing on CentOS

Introduction

Due to the fact that not many, as it turned out, they know about Stash a little about him. On the manufacturer’s website the following description is given:

The Stash interface makes it easy to perform administrative and management tasks. Stash keeps your growing Git repositories safe within firewall range. Add users and user groups, set detailed rules directly from the UI (user interface). Create and manage repositories within Stash. To be aware of all the team cases and bring them to a single list is a matter of a couple of minutes.

Roughly say Stash from Atlassian - this is your local Githab. The special beauty of this tool is that it is very closely integrated with the same JIRA from Atlassian, which provides a much more convenient revision of the code for the task being performed and a single interface for this.

Installation

Installation of the specified product is quite simple. But I still found a rake for myself.
This was partly due to the fact that I put on CentOS. Until recently, I had almost no experience with this distribution.

In fact, this article is a free translation of the Getting Started manual from the Atlassian website in the installation section of Linux.

It is useful for beginners.

Note:
All commands below are entered in the command line as root.
This installation option is recommended for test operation ! To start the server in commercial operation, you must perform a number of additional measures. This is all described in the installation article .
Later I will try to supplement the article with the order of transferring the server to the combat mode.

First, we need to check the availability of the required versions of additional software. Here we can see the supported versions.

1. Java

First we are invited to check the Java version installed on your server.

java -version

The rake number 1: JAVA version
I installed OpenJDK version 1.7.0 (java-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64), everything was fine, except that for how long I did not wait for access to the web page was missing. Just a white blank page was displayed. As it turned out, it was best to put Java from Oracle - thanks to vsb for the recommendation, I found the same recommendations somewhere on the forums when I solved this problem. Slightly more deployed under the spoiler.

2. Git

Also check the version of the installed package:

git --version

Here I was waiting for Rake number 2 .
In CentOs 6.5, git 1.7.1 is in the base repository, and the minimum requirement is 1.7.6+
Everything would be great, but here all factors of my small experience with CentOS and yum came together at once. Prior to that, my entire administration experience was focused on Debian distributions. If this is not a problem for you, you can not look under the spoiler.

3.Perl

With this, CentOS 6.5 turned out to be all right.

# perl --version
This is perl, v5.10.1 (*) built for x86_64-linux-thread-multi

minimum requirements:> = 5.8.8

4.Stash

Now we put Stash himself.
Download the archive distribution from this page. And we deploy the archive to the desired installation location. For example, in / usr / local / stash This will be our \ <Stash installation directory \>

Before starting, we need to fix the file \ <Stash installation directory \> /bin/setenv.sh
Uncomment the parameter STASH_HOME and specify the location for stash data
eg

STASH_HOME = "/ home / stash-home-data"

!!! IMPORTANT!!!
Developers advise not to put data in the \ <Stash installation directory \> folder
This is due to the fact that when you need to update STASH, the data in the \ <Stash installation directory \> folder will be overwritten.

Everything, installation is complete. Now just run stash.
go to the folder where the stash is installed (this is our \ <Stash installation directory \> )

bin / start-stash.sh

If everything started correctly, we will see

# bin / start-stash.sh
To run Stash in the foreground, start the server with start-stash.sh -fg
Starting Atlassian Stash as current user

Detecting JVM PermGen support ...
PermGen switch is supported. Setting to 256m \ n
Using STASH_HOME: / home / stash-home-data
Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/local/etc/stash/atlassian-stash-2.10.1
Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/local/etc/stash/atlassian-stash-2.10.1
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/local/etc/stash/atlassian-stash-2.10.1/temp
Using JRE_HOME: / usr
Using CLASSPATH: /usr/local/etc/stash/atlassian-stash-2.10.1/bin/bootstrap.jar:/usr/local/etc/stash/atlassian-stash-2.10.1/bin/tomcat-juli.jar
Using CATALINA_PID: /usr/local/etc/stash/atlassian-stash-2.10.1/work/catalina.pid

Success! You can now use Stash at the following address:

localhost : 7990 /

If you cannot access Atlassian Stash, please read the troubleshooting guide at:

confluence.atlassian.com/display/STASHKB/Troubleshooting+Installation

As indicated, access to the web interface does not appear immediately, but within a few minutes. This is due to the preparation of data.
Next we open http: // <ip (dns) of your server>: 7990 / and follow through the installation wizard. I will not describe this process, since everything is elementary there.

PS: Discussion of the article and comments are waiting in the comments.

UPD: made some adjustments to the article, added a description.
