Install on Ubuntu


Requirements

  • A valid DOM license key
  • A server running Ubuntu Linux 24.04 LTS or Ubuntu Linux 22.04 LTS
  • Root access to the server
  • Internet access during installation
  • Hardware Requirements

Preparation

Install a standard version of Ubuntu 24.04 or 22.04 on amd64 using their “Server install image”. On a VM, your private cloud or a bare-metal server.

Keep in mind that the server should only run DOM, and we do not recommend it being used for other purposes or applications as this can interfere with the system.

Quick Install

First, become the root user by running the following command:

sudo -i

Then, run the following command:

bash <(curl -s https://install.dom.nettec.no/rolling/)

This will download, install and configure DOM on your server. A valid license key is required to complete the setup.

Note: Ubuntu Desktop does not have curl installed by default. You can install it with apt-get install curl

That’s it!

After completing the setup, DOM should be ready to go. Log in to https://<dom-server-ip>/ from your browser to access the application.

Updates

DOM will be updated along with other packages on your Ubuntu installation via the apt package manager. To manually update DOM, run the following commands:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

You can also update an offline installation by downloading the DOM .deb package, transferring it to the server and executing the following command:

sudo apt-get install ./dom-server_*.deb
