Readme

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
| Running ${PKGSTEM} on OpenBSD
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------

selfoss is installed under:
    ${INSTDIR}

It can be accessed by pointing you browser to:
    http:///selfoss/


Post-installation instructions
==============================
To use selfoss with nginx, see configuration examples at:
	https://github.com/SSilence/selfoss/wiki/nginx-configuration

With Apache, AllowOverride settings on the ${INSTDIR} directory and
the rewrite_module are required.

You can configure this as follows:
    # ln -sf ${PREFIX}/conf/modules.sample/selfoss.conf \
        ${PREFIX}/conf/modules

"allow_url_fopen" needs to be enabled in PHP using _one_ of the
following methods:
    1. ${SYSCONFDIR}/php-${MODPHP_VERSION}.ini
    allow_url_fopen = On

    2. ${PREFIX}/conf/httpd.conf (main server or VirtualHost)
    php_admin_value allow_url_fopen 1

    3. ${PREFIX}/conf/modules.sample/selfoss.conf
    php_admin_value allow_url_fopen 1

    4. ${SYSCONFDIR}/nginx/nginx.conf
    fastcgi_param PHP_VALUE "allow_url_fopen=on";


Activate user/password login
============================

1. To ensure proper salting of passwords generate a reasonable
   complex saltvalue and set 'salt=' in the configuration file
   ${PREFIX}/selfoss/config.ini. You can use this command:

       tr -cd '#_[:alnum:]' < /dev/urandom | fold -w 60 | head -1

2. Use the http:///selfoss/password page to generate the
   password hash.

3. Set a 'username=' and use the hash for 'password=' in the
   ${PREFIX}/selfoss/config.ini configuration file.


Update feeds
============
You need to choose an update method for the feeds as explained in
the installation part of the documentation on http://selfoss.aditu.de/.

You can run the update process from a cronjob as user www:
*/5	*	*	*	*	${LOCALBASE}/bin/php-${MODPHP_VERSION} ${PREFIX}/selfoss/cliupdate.php
