Installing on Linux

This section describes how to install Garoon on Linux.
For example, the steps below are based on the following operation environment:

OS：Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8
Web server service: Apache 2.4.37
CGI directory of the Web server: /var/www/cgi-bin
Document root directory of the Web server: /var/www/html
MySQL: Using MySQL bundled in the Garoon installer

Steps:

Log into the server machine as a root user.
Check httpd.conf to ensure that KeepAlive is disabled.
For details on how to check or edit KeepAlive settings, refer to (Only for Linux) Disabling KeepAlive in Apache.
Note
- When you choose to enable KeepAlive, you should adjust the KeepAliveTimeout value for your environment.
  The greater the value of KeepAliveTimeout, the more likely Garoon is to respond slowly when Garoon handles many requests.
Check that the THP function is disabled.
```
[root@garoon admin]# cat /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
```
If "never" is surrounded by [ ], the THP function is disabled.
Example:
```
always madvise [never]
```
If "[always] madvise never" or "always [madvise] never" is displayed, the THP function is enabled.
Disable THP, if it is enabled. For details, refer to (Only for Linux) Disabling Transparent Huge Pages (THP).
Move to the directory where the installer exists.

Execute the installer.

［root@garoon admin］# sh grn-5.15.0-linux-x64.bin

For details, refer to Post-Installation Tasks.

Note

For Garoon version 3.5.0 and later, Garoon is initialized during the installation process. Therefore, it is not necessary for you to initialize Garoon before you can start using Garoon.
After you start using Garoon, you can initialize Garoon if you want to delete data that you entered for trial use. For details on the initialization, refer to Initializing Garoon on Linux.
If you access the Garoon URL but the screen is not displayed properly, check the following points:
- The Run As user of the Web server ("apache" in the example above) has the Read permission on the document root directory of the Web server.
- The Web server has virtual directories configured properly.
  For details, refer to How to Create a Virtual Directory.
- SELinux is disabled.
- The firewall is configured correctly.
The installation logs for Garoon and MySQL are saved in the following directories:
- Installation log for Garoon: (directory where the installer was executed)/install.log
- Installation log for MySQL: (directory where the installer was executed)/install_cyde.log
