Support #633
Updated by Daniel Curtis over 9 years ago
This is a guide for installing Magento on FreeBSD with Nginx as the web server.
h1. Pre-installation requirements
* Before installation of the components, make sure everything is up to date using the following command:
<pre>
pkg update -f && pkg upgrade
</pre>
* Install portmaster:
<pre>
cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portmaster
make install clean
pkg2ng
</pre>
* Edit the @/etc/hosts@ file
<pre>
vi /etc/hosts
</pre>
#* And add/modify the following line:
<pre>
192.168.1.100 magento.example.com
</pre>
---
h1. Install Nginx
* Install Nginx
<pre>
portmaster www/nginx
</pre>
* Start and enable nginx at boot:
<pre>
echo 'nginx_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
service nginx start
</pre>
* Create a configuration directory to make managing individual server blocks easier
<pre>
mkdir /usr/local/etc/nginx/conf.d
</pre>
* Edit the main nginx config file:
<pre>
vi /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
</pre>
#* And strip down the config file and add the include statement at the end to make it easier to handle various server blocks:
<pre>
#user nobody;
worker_processes 1;
error_log /var/log/nginx-error.log;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
sendfile on;
#tcp_nopush on;
#keepalive_timeout 0;
keepalive_timeout 65;
#gzip on;
# Load config files from the /etc/nginx/conf.d directory
include /usr/local/etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
}
</pre>

h1. Install PHP
The PHP support in FreeBSD is extremely modular so the base install is very limited. It is very easy to add support using the _lang/php5-extensions_ port. This port provides a menu driven interface to PHP extension installation. Alternatively, individual extensions can be installed using the appropriate port.
*NOTE*: Magento currently supports +PHP 5.5 only+.
* Install PHP 5.5 5.6 and other supporting packages:
<pre>
portmaster lang/php5 lang/php56
</pre>
* Install PHP extensions and a few modules:
<pre>
portmaster lang/php56-extensions databases/php5-mysqli databases/php5-pdo_mysql www/php5-session databases/php56-mysqli databases/php56-pdo_mysql www/php56-session
</pre>
*NOTE*: There are many more PHP modules, to search for more PHP modules run:
<pre>
find /usr/ports/ -name "php5-*" "php56-*"
</pre>
*NOTE*: PHP capabilities can be further extended by using PECL packages, to search for more PECL packages run:
<pre>
find /usr/ports/ -name "pecl-*"
</pre>
* Configure the default PHP settings
<pre>
cp /usr/local/etc/php.ini-production /usr/local/etc/php.ini
</pre>
h2. Configure PHP-FPM
* Edit @/usr/local/etc/php-fpm.conf@:
<pre>
vi /usr/local/etc/php-fpm.conf
</pre>
#* Make the following changes:
<pre>
events.mechanism = kqueue
listen = /var/run/php-fpm.sock
listen.owner = www
listen.group = www
listen.mode = 0666
</pre>
* Start and enable PHP-FPM at boot:
<pre>
echo 'php_fpm_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
service php-fpm start
</pre>
* Restart nginx:
<pre>
service nginx restart
</pre>
---
h1. Install Magento
* Install Magento:
<pre>
portmaster www/magento
</pre>
* Add a *magento.example.com server block*:
<pre>
vi /usr/local/etc/nginx/conf.d/magento.example.com.conf
</pre>
#* Add the following:
<pre>
server {
listen 80;
server_name magento.example.com;
root /usr/local/www/magento;
access_log /var/log/magento.example.com-access.log;
error_log /var/log/magento.example.com-error.log
## Allow a static html file to be shown first
location / {
index index.html index.php;
try_files $uri $uri/ @handler; ## If missing pass the URI to Magento's front handler
expires 30d; ## Assume all files are cachable
}
## These locations would be hidden by .htaccess normally
location ^~ /app/ { deny all; }
location ^~ /includes/ { deny all; }
location ^~ /lib/ { deny all; }
location ^~ /media/downloadable/ { deny all; }
location ^~ /pkginfo/ { deny all; }
location ^~ /report/config.xml { deny all; }
location ^~ /var/ { deny all; }
## Allow admins only to view export folder
location /usr/local/www/magento/var/export/ {
auth_basic "Restricted"; ## Message shown in login window
auth_basic_user_file htpasswd; ## See /etc/nginx/htpassword
autoindex on;
}
## Disable .htaccess and other hidden files
location /. {
return 404;
}
## Magento uses a common front handler
location @handler {
rewrite / /index.php;
}
## Forward paths like /js/index.php/x.js to relevant handler
location ~ .php/ {
rewrite ^(.*.php)/ $1 last;
}
## Execute PHP scripts
location ~ .php$ {
if (!-e $request_filename) { rewrite / /index.php last; } ## Catch 404s that try_files miss
expires off; ## Do not cache dynamic content
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_param HTTPS $fastcgi_https;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param MAGE_RUN_CODE default; ## Store code is defined in administration > Configuration > Manage Stores
fastcgi_param MAGE_RUN_TYPE store;
include fastcgi_params; ## See /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params
}
}
</pre>

h1. Securing Nginx With SSL
* Install OpenSSL:
<pre>
portmaster security/openssl
</pre>
Enabling SSL in Nginx is simple. First add the ssl directive in the server listen option, then add the SSL certificate and key paths.
* The basic SSL server block should be look similar to the following:
<pre>
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name www.example.com;
ssl_certificate www.example.com.crt;
ssl_certificate_key www.example.com.key;
...
}
</pre>
* Setup the Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange Parameters
<pre>
cd /usr/local/etc/nginx
openssl dhparam -out dhparam.pem 4096
</pre>
* Generate a strong SSL key and a CSR to send for signing by a CA:
<pre>
cd /usr/local/etc/nginx
openssl req -sha512 -out magento.example.com.csr -new -newkey rsa:4096 -nodes -keyout magento.example.com.key
</pre>
#* If the received SSL certificate requires additional bundle certificates, add them together like so:
<pre>
cd /usr/local/etc/nginx
cat magento.example.com.crt magento.example.com.bundle > magento.example.com.chained.crt
</pre>
* Setup the default site configuration:
<pre>
vi /usr/local/etc/nginx/conf.d/magento.example.com.conf
</pre>
#* Then add or modify the configuration to look similar to the following:
<pre>
server {
listen 80;
listen 443 default ssl;
server_name magento.example.com;
# Turn on ans set SSL key/cert
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /usr/local/etc/nginx/magento.example.com.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /usr/local/etc/nginx/magento.example.com.key;
# Strong SSL configuration
ssl_ciphers 'AES128+EECDH:AES128+EDH:!aNULL';
ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2;
ssl_session_cache builtin:1000 shared:SSL:10m;
ssl_stapling on;
ssl_stapling_verify on;
ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
ssl_dhparam /usr/local/etc/nginx/dhparam.pem;
add_header Strict-Transport-Security max-age=63072000;
add_header X-Frame-Options DENY;
add_header X-Content-Type-Options nosniff;
root /usr/local/www/magento;
index index.html index.htm;
autoindex on;
## Allow a static html file to be shown first
location / {
index index.html index.php;
try_files $uri $uri/ @handler; ## If missing pass the URI to Magento's front handler
expires 30d; ## Assume all files are cachable
}
## These locations would be hidden by .htaccess normally
location ^~ /app/ { deny all; }
location ^~ /includes/ { deny all; }
location ^~ /lib/ { deny all; }
location ^~ /media/downloadable/ { deny all; }
location ^~ /pkginfo/ { deny all; }
location ^~ /report/config.xml { deny all; }
location ^~ /var/ { deny all; }
## Allow admins only to view export folder
location /usr/local/www/magento/var/export/ {
auth_basic "Restricted"; ## Message shown in login window
auth_basic_user_file htpasswd; ## See /etc/nginx/htpassword
autoindex on;
}
## Disable .htaccess and other hidden files
location /. {
return 404;
}
## Magento uses a common front handler
location @handler {
rewrite / /index.php;
}
## Forward paths like /js/index.php/x.js to relevant handler
location ~ .php/ {
rewrite ^(.*.php)/ $1 last;
}
## Execute PHP scripts
location ~ .php$ {
if (!-e $request_filename) { rewrite / /index.php last; } ## Catch 404s that try_files miss
expires off; ## Do not cache dynamic content
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_param HTTPS $fastcgi_https;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param MAGE_RUN_CODE default; ## Store code is defined in administration > Configuration > Manage Stores
fastcgi_param MAGE_RUN_TYPE store;
include fastcgi_params; ## See /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params
}
# Uncomment to force HTTPS
# if ($scheme = http) {
# return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
# }
}
</pre>
h3. Certificate Bundles
Some browsers may complain about a certificate signed by a well-known certificate authority, while other browsers may accept the certificate without issues. This occurs because the issuing authority has signed the server certificate using an intermediate certificate that is not present in the certificate base of well-known trusted certificate authorities which is distributed with a particular browser. In this case the authority provides a bundle of chained certificates which should be concatenated to the signed server certificate.
* The server certificate must appear before the chained certificates in the combined file:
<pre>
cat magento.example.com.crt bundle.crt > magento.example.com.chained.crt
</pre>
* The resulting file should be used in the ssl_certificate directive:
<pre>
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name www.example.com;
ssl_certificate www.example.com.chained.crt;
ssl_certificate_key www.example.com.key;
...
}
</pre>

h1. Install MariaDB
* Install MariaDB server and client:
<pre>
portmaster databases/mariadb10-server databases/mariadb10-client
</pre>
* Start and enable MariaDB at boot:
<pre>
echo 'mysql_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
service mysql-server start
</pre>
* Secure your installation:
<pre>
mysql_secure_installation
</pre>
h2. Configure a new MariaDB database
* Log into the MySQL console:
<pre>
mysql -h localhost -u root -p
</pre>
#* Create the *magentouser* user with the *SuperSecretPassword* password and the *magentodb* database:
<pre>
CREATE USER 'magentouser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'SuperSecretPassword';
CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `magentodb` CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `magentodb`.* TO 'magentouser'@'localhost';
flush privileges;
exit
</pre>
* And wrap up by restarting the nginx and mariadb servers:
<pre>
service nginx restart
service mysql-server restart
</pre>
