Installing Foresight Analytics Platform web application in Linux OS is executed using a special script, which automatically installs web application components using PostgreSQL.
The script is available for the following Linux OS versions:
install_astrase1.7.sh for Astra Linux SE 1.7.
install_redos7.3.sh for RED OS 7.3.
install_rocky8.sh for Rocky Linux 8.
install_alt10.sh for ALT Linux 10.
NOTE. To get the script, contact technical support by sending a request to support@fsight.ru or use technical support services, which are available after registration at the website.
To install the web application:
Grant access permissions to execute the script as the root user. Specify script name without extension according to OS version instead of the <script name> substitute:
chmod +x <script name>.sh
The example of the command for Astra Linux SE 1.7:
chmod +x install_astrase1.7.sh
Run the script. Specify script name without extension according to OS version instead of the <script name> substitute:
./<script name>.sh
NOTE. The script contains predefined parameters of the web application with default values. See the list of web application parameters and if required replace default values before running the script.
After executing the operation the dialog utility is installed to display the installation graphic interface, and the dialog box opens for selecting web application component setup type.
Select the web application component setup type:
Complete. Automatic installation of all web application components except for license server:
Install all components (PostgreSQL DBMS).
Custom. Manual selection of components to be installed:
BI server with a PostgreSQL client.
Web server
BI server and web server with a PostgreSQL client
PostgreSQL DBMS.
License server.
After executing the operations, web application components are installed depending on the selected setup type:
| Component | Result |
| PostgreSQL DBMS back end | After one of the following setup types is selected: Install All Components (PostgreSQL DBMS), BI Server with PostgreSQL Client, BI Server and Web Server with PostgreSQL Client or PostgreSQL DBMS, a PostgreSQL repository will be added for the OS in use and PostgreSQL 11 will be installed. |
| BI server | After one of the following installation types is selected: Install All Components (PostgreSQL DBMS), BI Server with PostgreSQL Client or BI Server and Web Server with PostgreSQL Client, the directories will be created:
When installing BI server, a request is formed to get computer locking code to create a perpetual license. If the answer is Yes, the computer locking code is displayed and saved to the locking_code.txt file. The file is created at the script level. Features of BI server installation:
If required, execute the command to manage BI server:
sudo systemctl start/restart/stop apache2-fp10.x
sudo systemctl start/restart/stop httpd-fp10.x
sudo systemctl start/restart/stop httpd2-fp10.x |
| Web server | After one of the following installation types is selected: Install All Components (PostgreSQL DBMS), Web Server, or BI Server and Web Server with PostgreSQL Client, the directories will be created:
If required, execute the command to to manage web server:
sudo systemctl start/restart/stop apache2-fp10.x-web
sudo systemctl start/restart/stop httpd-fp10.x-web
sudo systemctl start/restart/stop httpd2-fp10.x-web |
| License server | After the License Server setup type is selected, the following will be created:
If required, execute the command to manage the license server: sudo systemctl start/restart/stop lserv64 |
To change web application parameter values that should differ from default values, open the script for edit. Web application parameters are used as variables in the following script block:
