Here\u2019s a clear, step-by-step command guide to install the latest JFrog Artifactory (7.117.7)<\/strong> on a Linux server with PostgreSQL as the external database. This walkthrough assumes Ubuntu\/Debian, but the logic applies to RHEL\/Rocky with minimal adjustments (swap apt<\/code> for yum<\/code> or dnf<\/code>). Adapt commands as appropriate for your distribution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. System Preparation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
$ sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
$ apt install curl wget unzip gnupg2 openjdk-21-jdk -y
<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • No need to set JAVA_HOME; Artifactory 7.104+ auto-detects the bundled JDK.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    2. Install & Configure PostgreSQL<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    $ sudo apt install postgresql postgresql-contrib -y
    <\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
    $ sudo -u postgres psql
    -- inside postgres shell, run:
    CREATE DATABASE artifactory;
    CREATE USER artifactory WITH PASSWORD 'StrongPassword';
    GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE artifactory TO artifactory;
    \\q
    <\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
    Replace 'StrongPassword'<\/code> with a secure password. For external DB access, allow it in pg_hba.conf<\/code>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
