# Linux

### Unzip files

1. Navigate to the directory where the Trulyp installation files have been uploaded.\
   `cd /path/to/upload/folder`
2. Unzip the downloaded package.\
   `unzip trulyp-linux-<version>.zip`

Ensure you are in the correct upload folder location before proceeding with the unzip operation.

### Installation procedure

The installation procedure for linux consists out of the following steps:

1. Run the installer
2. During the installation, the application asks to start the installer. Executing this command starts a webserver which exposes an endpoint for the user to open in a web-browser. user needs to complete this installation in his web browser.&#x20;
3. After the web installer is finished, the application needs to be installed as a service.

#### Starting the installer

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Debian based" %}
Run \`dpkg -i writebackextreme\_6.0.0\_amd64.deb\`
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="RHEL, CentOS, Rocky, Alma, Fedora" %}
Run \`yum -y -v --allowerasing install writebackextreme\_6.0.0\_x86\_64.rpm\`
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

The example below shows what the linux installation looks like:

<figure><img src="https://content.gitbook.com/content/WbWxEBax8PKTjFYRLWgi/blobs/f4TEkKley47q4TJs1VYo/Screenshot%202026-02-03%20at%2015.16.03.png" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The script will prompt on which port to expose the endpoint. Port 8080 is the default.

Follow any on-screen prompts in yellow as needed.

{% hint style="info" %}
The installer tries to automatically determine the ip address of the machine, but that could be different depending on your network.
{% endhint %}

After the installation is completed in the browser it will automatically show the configure window which can be used to adjust configuration. After exiting the command by pressing Ctrl+C, the configuration panel is automatically disabled.

### Enable configurer

There are cases when temporary access to the configuration panel is needed to change configuration like SSL certificates, Update license, of other configuration. In this case we have two commands:

**Enable the configuration panel**

The following command will enable the configurer for 15 minutes. It will expose the <https://your-writebackextreme-domain.com/installer> route.

```
/usr/local/share/writebackextreme/writebackextreme-amd64 install:enable
```

It will automatically stop after 15 minutes, when you are done and want it to be disabled, you could call this:

```
/usr/local/share/writebackextreme/writebackextreme-amd64 install:disable
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.infotopics.com/trulyp/getting-started/trulyp-installation/on-premises-installation/linux.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
