# GitList Installation * Download GitList from [https://github.com/patrikx3/gitlist/releases](https://github.com/patrikx3/gitlist/releases/) and decompress to your `/var/www/gitlist` folder, or anywhere else you want to place GitList. * Rename the `config.example.ini-example` file to `config.ini`. * Open up the `config.ini` and configure your installation. You'll have to provide where your repositories are located and the base GitList URL (in our case, http://localhost/gitlist). * Create the cache folder and give read/write permissions to your web server user: ``` cd /var/www/gitlist mkdir cache chmod 777 cache composer install bower install ``` That's it, installation complete! ## Webserver configuration Apache is the "default" webserver for GitList. You will find the configuration inside the `.htaccess` file. However, nginx and lighttpd are also supported. ### nginx server.conf ``` server { server_name MYSERVER; access_log /var/log/nginx/MYSERVER.access.log combined; error_log /var/log/nginx/MYSERVER.error.log error; root /var/www/DIR; index index.php; # auth_basic "Restricted"; # auth_basic_user_file .htpasswd; location = /robots.txt { allow all; log_not_found off; access_log off; } location ~* ^/index.php.*$ { fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; # if you're using php5-fpm via tcp fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; # if you're using php5-fpm via socket #fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock; include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params; } location / { try_files $uri @gitlist; } location ~* \.(js|css|png|jpg|jpeg|gif|ico)$ { add_header Vary "Accept-Encoding"; expires max; try_files $uri @gitlist; tcp_nodelay off; tcp_nopush on; } # location ~* \.(git|svn|patch|htaccess|log|route|plist|inc|json|pl|po|sh|ini|sample|kdev4)$ { # deny all; # } location @gitlist { rewrite ^/.*$ /index.php; } } ``` ### lighttpd ``` # GitList is located in /var/www/gitlist server.document-root = "/var/www" url.rewrite-once = ( "^/gitlist/web/.+" => "$0", "^/gitlist/favicon\.ico$" => "$0", "^/gitlist(/[^\?]*)(\?.*)?" => "/gitlist/index.php$1$2" ) ``` ### hiawatha ``` UrlToolkit { ToolkitID = gitlist RequestURI isfile Return # If you have example.com/gitlist/ ; Otherwise remove "/gitlist" below Match ^/gitlist/.* Rewrite /gitlist/index.php Match ^/gitlist/.*\.ini DenyAccess } ``` If you're having problems, check the [Troubleshooting](https://github.com/patrikx3/gitlist/wiki/Troubleshooting) page.
