I wanted to document my thoughts about the OwnCloud setup...so, here it is:

Basic Installation

  • Download the server from http://owncloud.org/install/
  • Extract the archive on your server (needing Apache2, PHP5 and some more pretty common tool - usually everything you need is provided by your web hoster)
bzip2 -d owncloud-5*.bz2
tar xf owncloud-5*.tar
  • Open the location with your browser: http://<MYHOST>/owncloud
  • Configure your admin account[1]

SSL/TLS

Since I don't want to spend money for a officially[2] we create our own certificate. See Setup apache with a self-signed SSL/TLS-certificate for the how-to.

  1. And yes, you shoud hurry if your site is public. First one entering his data owns the place!
  2. That does NOT mean, it's safer. It might be, but take a look at your Keychain and decide for yourself.
