This is a simple guide on getting subsonic up and running on FreeBSD 9. h2. Prepare the Environment * Before installation of the components, make sure everything is up to date using the following command: <pre> pkg update && pkg upgrade </pre> h2. Install Subsonic * Install the subsonic-standalone package: <pre> pkg install subsonic-standalone </pre> * Start and enable subsonic at boot: <pre> echo 'subsonic_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf service subsonic start </pre> * Now open a web browser and go to http://subsonic.example.com:4040 h2. Install SSL * Install openssl and zip: <pre> pkg install openssl zip </pre> * Generate a strong SSL key and a CSR to send for signing by a CA: <pre> cd /usr/local/etc openssl req -sha512 -out subsonic.example.com.csr -new -newkey rsa:4096 -nodes -keyout subsonic.example.com.key </pre> * Combine the SSL key, certificate, and CA intermediate certificate files together into a @subsonic-bundle.crt@ file: <pre> cat subsonic.example.com.key subsonic.example.com.crt startcom.class1.bundle > subsonic-bundle.crt </pre> * Next convert it to a format Subsonic understands: <pre> openssl pkcs12 -in subsonic-bundle.crt -export -out subsonic-bundle.pkcs12 </pre> #* When prompted enter *subsonic* as export password. * Now you should have a @subsonic-bundle.pkcs12@ file, we need to import this into a keystore for Subsonic to use: <pre> keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore subsonic-bundle.pkcs12 -destkeystore subsonic.keystore -srcstoretype PKCS12 -srcstorepass subsonic -srcalias 1 -destalias subsonic </pre> #* When prompted enter *subsonic* as the password. * Finally we need to put the keystore into the file Subsonic uses to boot: <pre> zip /usr/local/subsonic-standalone/subsonic-booter-jar-with-dependencies.jar subsonic.keystore </pre> * Now set the subsonic_https_port in the rc.conf file and restart subsonic: <pre> echo 'subsonic_https_port="4443"' >> /etc/rc.conf service subsonic restart </pre> h2.
