Linux

Info

It is recommended that you install ffmpeg from your distribution's package manager. In case you don't, Stash will prompt you to download a copy during setup.

Note

Stash offers different binaries for different architectures. You can find your processor architecture by running a simple command uname -p in a terminal. Replace <binary-name> in the following tutorial accordingly.

stash-linux = amd64 (x86_64)
stash-linux-arm32v6 = arm32v6 (armel)
stash-linux-arm32v7 = arm32v7 (armhf)
stash-linux-arm64v8 = arm64v8 (arm64)

Install

1. Download latest <binary-name> binary from GitHub repository depending on your architecture.
2. Run ./<binary-name> from the terminal.
3. If you have trouble, try running chmod u+x <binary-name> to make the file executable.
4. If everything went well, it should open a browser tab http://localhost:9999 to get started.

Update

1. Stop Stash server. Either by closing the terminal window or by stopping the process from task manager.
2. Download latest <binary-name> binary from GitHub repository.
3. Delete old <binary-name> binary and replace it with the newly downloaded one.
4. Run ./<binary-name> from the terminal.
5. If you have trouble, try running chmod u+x <binary-name> to make the file executable.
6. If everything went well, it should open a browser tab http://localhost:9999 to get started.
7. You might be asked to perform a database migration depending on the changes included in the new release. Follow the steps.
8. Automatic backup will be performed before the migration.
9. If any issues arise during the migration your database will be automatically restored from the backup.
10. You should be good to go.

Remove

1. Stop Stash server.
2. Delete <binary-name> binary file.
3. Delete $HOME/.stash folder.
