Installing Debian Buster¶
Install the 64-bit version of Debian on each machine that hosts one or more of the components.
To install Debian Buster:
- To install Debian Buster, see the Debian Installation Guide (PDF).
- After the system is installed, make sure that it’s up to date with the most recent security patches. Open a terminal window and issue the following commands as root:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
- Install sudo and curl for use later in the installation:
apt-get install sudo curl gnupg
- Add your username to the sudo group. In the following command, replace {username} with your own username.
usermod -a -G sudo {username}
Now that the system is up to date and our user is in the sudo group, you can start installing the components that make up a Mattermost system.
