Auto install Seafile Server

Note, installation script will no longer be maintained for Seafile v12 and later versions. Please use Docker based installation method instead.

These installers offer a quick and easy way to set up a production ready Seafile Server using MariaDB, Memcached and NGINX as a reverse proxy in under 5 minutes.

Ubuntu 20.04/22.04 are supported now.

Caution

Do not run these scripts on a production server that you have already a Seafile running.

As a precaution, a few simple checks to abort installation if any of these fails:

  1. Check if you're running this script as root. If not, abort.
  2. Check if the user "seafile" exists. If yes, abort.
  3. Check if the directory "/opt/seafile" exists. If yes, abort.
