============================================================
Pakl's guide to a complete tentd and tentd-admin 
and Nginx proxy:80 installation.
============================================================
Oct 7, 2012 -- Version 1.2 (adds missing commands for installing nginx)

History
Oct 7, 2012 -- Version 1.1 (adds missing nodejs repository)
Oct 7, 2021 - 1.0 initial release



On a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit server.

sudo aptitude install postgresql
sudo aptitude install ruby1.9.1-full libxml2 libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev git
sudo vi /etc/postgresql/9.1/main/pg_hba.conf

   --> the pg_hba should have these "trust" lines:

   local   all             postgres                                trust
   local   all             all                                     trust
   host    all             all             127.0.0.1/32            trust
   host    all             all             ::1/128                 trust

sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql restart
sudo -u postgres psql
     psql#   CREATE USER ubuntu WITH PASSWORD 'pickYourPostgresPassword' CREATEDB CREATEROLE;
createdb tent_server_test
sudo update-alternatives --config ruby

mkdir tent
cd tent
git clone https://github.com/tent/tentd.git
git clone https://github.com/tent/tentd-admin.git
cd tentd
sudo gem install bundler
sudo apt-get install make
sudo aptitude install postgresql-server-dev-9.1
sudo bundle install

cd ../tentd-admin/
bundle install
sudo gem install execjs
cd ..

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs npm

createdb tent_server_account1

cd tentd-admin/
DATABASE_URL=postgres://localhost/tent_server_account1 ADMIN_USERNAME=admin ADMIN_PASSWORD=pickYourAdminPassword  bundle exec puma -p 3000


# YOUR TENT SERVER IS RUNNING, YOU CAN SET UP ADMIN BY VISITING http://your_vps:3000/admin
# Go there, change the entity name to not have the :3000, and also
# add a second Server without the :3000 (then delete the :3000 one after 
# you have added the without-:3000 one)


Nginx
=====

# Install Nginx using

sudo apt-get install nginx

# Add to the file /etc/nginx/defaults  (or create another file in that directory)

server {
  listen 80;
  server_name coolname.yourserver.com;   # <-- replace
  location / {
    proxy_pass http://0.0.0.0:3000;
    include /etc/nginx/tentproxyconf.conf;
  }
}

# Add more server lines as necessary for other tent entities/accounts

# Create a file /etc/nginx/tentproxyconf.conf:

proxy_redirect          off;
proxy_set_header        Host            $host;
proxy_set_header        X-Real-IP       $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header        X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
client_max_body_size    10m;
client_body_buffer_size 128k;
proxy_connect_timeout   90;
proxy_send_timeout      90;
proxy_read_timeout      90;
proxy_buffers           32 4k;

# Then run

sudo invoke-rc.d nginx reload

# you can also use sudo invoke-rc.d nginx stop / start

Thanks! This helped. the ruby installation didn't really work, dunno why (I'm on Natty). So I installed it via rvm. And had to replate aptitude by apt-get because it'S not installed by default (anyway, on my VPS provider).

Thanks!
