WordPress / ChurchCRM / OwnCloud Installation on Digital Ocean

We have our server/droplet up and running. Now we need to install our software on that server! In this video we will be installing WordPress, ChurchCRM and OwnCloud on our droplet. Sound difficult? It’s not! I’ve put in a LOT of hard work in order to make this part of the process one of the easiest. At the end of this lesson you are already going to have an incredible setup! A fully functional, 100% Secured with SSL WordPress installation, Church Management System and a File sharing server. Let’s get started.

Connecting to Digital Ocean

First, you must get the root password that was emailed to you from DigitalOcean.

Notes From the video:

• I misstated in the video that copy is Command-V or Control-V, it is Command-C (Mac) or Control-C (Windows)
• The website, as you can see is webbuild.io, not webbuild.skipperinnovations.com as I stated in the video! I purchased the webbuild.io domain name after recording this video. ;-)

Any

• Console on www.DigitalOcean.com

SSH

• Mac
  • Terminal
  • ssh root@mydemochurch.com
• Windows
  • PuTTY
    • Putty Website

DigitalOcean Setup

NOTE: AS OF 3/2/21 THIS IS NOT WORKING. PLEASE FIND A DIFFERENT WAY OF INSTALLING WORDPRESS. I WILL UPDATE THIS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE WITH NEW INSTRUCTIONS.

• ssh root@example.com
  • Log In w/ password that was emailed…
  • Change password
• git clone https://github.com/jaskipper/webbuild-setup.git
• cd webbuild-setup
• nano wb.conf
  • Change the necessary values in the configuration file
  • You can see timezones at the bottom of this page
• ./webbuild
  • Wait for the Installer to run and set everything up!
• Towards the end of the install, you will need to put in your email again for the SSL setup
• Done!

You can now visit your website! www.example.com / crm.example.com / cloud.example.com (The last two only if you chose to install that software and you named them accordingly.) We’ll start setting up WordPress very soon
