Configure package repositories

  • Add the following apt sources to /etc/apt/sources.list (for Debian 12.x "bookworm"):
deb [trusted=yes] http://pkg.freeside.biz/freeside-bullseye/ ./
deb [trusted=yes] http://pkg.freeside.biz/freeside4-stretch-testing/ ./   #XXX (no bullseye-specific repo yet) -testing only for now on deb 12, -stable when 4.3 releases
  • Run aptitude update.

aptitude install freeside freeside-lib freeside-webui
aptitude hold 'freeside*'
apt-mark hold 'freeside*'

with Postgresql:

[ as postgres/pgsql user ]
$ createuser -P -d freeside 
Enter password for new role: 
Enter it again: 

Database Access

  • Configure /usr/local/etc/freeside/secrets if necessary. This file contains three lines: DBI datasource, username and password

  • Example:
DBI:Pg:dbname=freeside
freeside
db_password_if_set

$ su freeside
$ freeside-setup -d example.com

$ su freeside
$ /opt/rt3/sbin/rt-setup-database --action schema

$ freeside-adduser -g 1 fs_queue
$ freeside-adduser -g 1 fs_daily
$ freeside-adduser -g 1 fs_selfservice
