Work In Progress !!!
Hello,
Bellow you can find all the steps needed to be done in order to build thr CService (X) WebPage using Centos 7 linux server and PHP7.x versions.
INFO !!! CService (X) Website is supported until latest PHP7.4 version.
Please keep in mind that the IP Address of the machine used for this HOWTO is 192.168.1.133 and it should be changed with the IP address of the machine where you want to have the webpage installed.
OK, now let`s proceed....

1 Now we need to make sure that the server is update - to - date:

yum update

2. Install the rest of the dependencies:

yum install curl git make automake autoconf cpp gcc gcc-c++ bison readline readline-devel flex byacc zip unzip nano mlocate wget psmisc policycoreutils.x86_64 policycoreutils-devel.x86_64

3. Install the webserver and openssl:

yum install httpd.x86_64 httpd-devel.x86_64 httpd-tools.x86_64 mod_ssl.x86_64 openssl.x86_64 openssl-devel.x86_64

3.1 Run the following command ONLY if on /etc/selinux/config we have the following entry: SELINUX=enforcing

semanage permissive -a httpd_t

4. After webserver install process is completed we ensure that we have PHP7.x , installed.

yum install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm

yum install http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm

yum install yum-utils

# Run this command if you want PHP 7.0

yum --enablerepo=remi-php70 install php

yum --enablerepo=remi-php70 install php-xml php-soap php-xmlrpc php-mbstring php-json php-gd php-mcrypt php-mysql php-pgsql php-devel

# Run this command if you want PHP 7.1

yum --enablerepo=remi-php71 install php

yum --enablerepo=remi-php71 install php-xml php-soap php-xmlrpc php-mbstring php-json php-gd php-mcrypt php-mysql php-pgsql php-devel

# Run this command if you want PHP 7.2

yum --enablerepo=remi-php72 install php

yum --enablerepo=remi-php72 install php-xml php-soap php-xmlrpc php-mbstring php-json php-gd php-mcrypt php-mysql php-pgsql php-devel

# Run this command if you want PHP 7.3

yum --enablerepo=remi-php73 install php

yum --enablerepo=remi-php73 install php-xml php-soap php-xmlrpc php-mbstring php-json php-gd php-mcrypt php-mysql php-pgsql php-devel

# Run this command if you want PHP 7.4

yum --enablerepo=remi-php74 install php

yum --enablerepo=remi-php74 install php-xml php-soap php-xmlrpc php-mbstring php-json php-gd php-mcrypt php-mysql php-pgsql php-devel

# Check if httpd Server is started:

service httpd status

#If is not started use the following command:

service httpd start

# Set httpd server to start on server reboot

systemctl enable httpd.service

Locate php.ini file and change some values:

updatedb

locate php.ini

Open php.ini file and change value "short_open_tag = Off" in "short_open_tag = On"

service httpd restart

service httpd reload

5. Now we need to install Composer.

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php && mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

6. Install Postgresql 15.2: - Skip this step if you already have PGSQL SETUP and RUNNING.

wget https://coder-com.universalnet.org/packages/postgresql-15.2.tar.gz

tar zxvf postgresql-15.2.tar.gz

cd postgresql-15.2

./configure

gmake

make install

mkdir /usr/local/pgsql/data

adduser gnuworld

chown gnuworld /usr/local/pgsql/data/

su - gnuworld

/usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -A trust -E=SQL_ASCII /usr/local/pgsql/data/

pico /usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf

### Add the following line:

host all all X_machine_ip_here/32 trust

host all all WebSite_machine_ip_here/32 trust

### Save the file and exit.
Now start postgresql Server...

/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -B 64 -N 32 -i -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -F -h 192.168.1.133 >/dev/null 2>&1 & # replace 192.168.1.133 with the IP PGSQL instance is running !!!

7. We get the webpage source code from UniversalNet Official GitHub under user gnuworld:

su - gnuworld

git clone https://github.com/ZioNeL/cservice-web/

cd cservice-web/

composer install

cd php_includes/

cp config.inc.dist config.inc #edit the file with your own values

cp cmaster.inc.dist cmaster.inc #replace all 'localhost' content with the ip PGSQL instance is running !!!

cp blackhole.inc.dist blackhole.inc

7.1 Skip this step if local_db database was created in gnuworld (X) Setup.[/u][/i][/b]

su - gnuworld

cd gnuworld-enhanced/doc/list]
- /usr/local/pgsql/bin/createdb local_db
- /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql local_db < local_db.sql
8. Now to create the live shortcut for the webpage:
- cd /var/www/html/
- chmod 711 ~gnuworld
- chmod 711 ~gnuworld/cservice-web
- chmod 755 ~gnuworld/cservice-web/php_includes
- chmod 644 ~gnuworld/cservice-web/php_includes/config.inc
- chmod 755 ~gnuworld/cservice-web/docs/gnuworld/
- ln -s /home/gnuworld/cservice-web/docs/gnuworld live
9. There are two options to solve (IPR) restriction, bellow you can find how to on both.
- su - gnuworld
9.1 - Fix (IPR) by inserting your ip into Admin account direct on database cservice.
- pico ipr.sql
- insert into ip_restrict (id, user_id, added_by, added, type, expiry, value) values (1, 1, 1, now()::abstime::int4, 1, 0, ‘192.168.1.133’);
##replace " 192.168.1.133 " with the ip address shown on whois on you on irc. !!!
- /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -h 192.168.1.133 cservice < ipr.sql
##replace " 192.168.1.133 " with a real ip address of the machine hosting the cservice db.

9.2 - Fix (IPR) by disableing IPR option in config.inc file
- su - gnuworld
- cd gnuworld
- pico cservice_web/php_includes/config.inc
- change define("IPR_REQUIRED",1); to define("IPR_REQUIRED",0);
Save the file and close

10 In order to permit login on CService Web from local IP address like 192.168.xx.xx or 10.0.0.xx the following changes must be made:

nano /home/gnuworld/cservice-web/php_includes/config.inc
# Replace define("DISALLOW_RESERVED_BLOCKS",1); to define("DISALLOW_RESERVED_BLOCKS",0);

Now login using * accounts from local IP address is possible.

Now you should have a running CService (X) Website using PHP7.x .
Have fun !!!
