Hi Alex,
this documentation was written by my colleague Michael Heel:=================================================================
Lucee on CentOS 7 quick howto
purpose:
quick howto for setting up “lucee/tomcat8/nginx/sun-jdk8/samba” on CentOS 7.
we dont go for securtiy here its a quick howto to get a clean lucee installation. lets call it a dev-machine. for security rtfm 
- Installing minimal CentOS 7
-
Download CentOS 7 Minimal-ISO, http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/7/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1511.iso
-
create VM or install on a physical machine with at least 4GB RAM 1-4 cores
-
CentOS 7 comes with an step-by-step-installer, some notes about the installer:
a) there is only one language in the IT-business - stick to english
b) set Date/timezone correctly, enable network time
c) set your Keyboard language
d) leave the software selection untouched
e) check the partition layout as most of your harddisk will be in /home else (webroot in home would be ok too for a dev-server)
f) configure network, set eth0 ON, set hostname, configure IPv4 manual with an IP, netmask gateway, dns and search domain if wanted/needed
g) begin installation and while you wait set the root user password
- Installing the Software Stack (Samba, nginx, tomcat8, JDK8, Lucee)
- ssh into your new server (f.e. with winscp in combination with putty, putty can be integrated in winscp, if you are a windows guy)
- yum install -y epel-release
- yum install -y unzip samba samba-client samba-common htop nginx nano
- yum update -y
- systemctl enable nginx
- systemctl enable smb.service
- systemctl enable nmb.service
- mkdir /home/wwwroot
- chmod -R 0755 /home/wwwroot
- chown -R nobody:nobody /home/wwwroot
- mv /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf.bak
- nano /etc/samba/smb.conf
paste these lines into smb.conf and change the netbios name to your hostname
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = Samba Server %v
netbios name = yourhostname
security = user
map to guest = bad user
dns proxy = no
#============================ Share Definitions ==============================
[wwwroot]
path = /home/wwwroot
browsable =yes
writable = yes
guest ok = yes
read only = no

-
download and install lucee 4.5 (Download Lucee)
we will use just the jars-download: http://cdn.lucee.org/lucee-4.5.2.018-jars.zip
copy it to your server or download it directly on the server into /opt or wherever
a) mkdir /opt/tomcat/lucee
b) unzip /opt/lucee-4.5.2.018-jars.zip -d /opt/tomcat/lucee
c) rm -f /opt/lucee-4.5.2.018-jars.zip
-
configure tomcat (server.xml, web.xml and catalina.properties)
a) nano /opt/tomcat/conf/server.xml (change the hostname to whatever tomcat should listen to and change the docbase to your webroot)
paste these 3 lines nearly at the end before </Engine>
b) nano /opt/tomcat/conf/web.xml
paste the following lines at line 24 (its not so important where exactly)
<!-- ===================================================================== -->

c) nano /opt/tomcat/conf/catalina.properties
add this to the common.loader= line ,"/opt/tomcat/lucee/","/opt/tomcat/lucee/*.jar"
the complete line should look like this now:

- are you still with me ?
quick cleanup of some unneeded things:
- rm -rf /opt/tomcat/webapps/docs
- rm -rf /opt/tomcat/webapps/examples
- rm -rf /opt/tomcat/webapps/manager
- rm -rf /opt/tomcat/webapps/host-manager
congrats you made it so far and you didnt scream for an installer. now you know what components are needed to run lucee and you’ve set it up yourself. thats a good base.
please reboot your server now.
type “reboot”
if everything was done correctly (i hope you added the hostname to your hostfile) you should now be able to login to lucee server for the first time
http://yourhostname/lucee/admin/server.cfm
http://yourhostname/lucee/admin/web.cfm
dont forget to give the lucee server and the lucee web a password.
you can also access your webroot now: \yourhostname\wwwroot
if you run into problems please let me know.
some command you might need in the future:
service tomcat start/stop/status
service nginx start/stop/status
log-file locations:
/opt/tomcat/logs
/var/log/nginx
/opt/tomcat/lucee-server/….
/opt/tomcat/lucee-web/….

Betreff: [Lucee] Anyone have install documentation for Installing Lucee on Centos7/RHEL7?
Hello Lucee community!
After a few searches I am not finding any install documentation Lucee 5 on Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 or Centos 7 with NGINX?
On http://docs.lucee.org/guides/running-lucee.htmlhttp://docs.lucee.org/guides/running-lucee.html there is a link for installing on Centos, however the link isn’t linked to anything. (Bug?)
I also stumbled acrossed https://git.theigor.net/igorek24/centos7-nginx-lucee/ but the script is busted as it references the old download locations from bitfountian and isnt fully adopted to Redhat or Centos (as it still references a lot of Ubuntu paths.).
Would anyone like to share some install documentation?
Thank you!
