Please see their [https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat development] on [https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat GitHub] for the activities and Rocket.Chat developments.}}
==Obsolete Notes==
This how-to can be discussed on the forums [https://forums.contribs.org/index.php/topic,52405.0.html '''here''']
Latest Rocket.Chat version tested: '''0.39''' (please see the change log [https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/releases here]).
===Add scl and centos-sclo-rh repositories===
==Requirements==
{{Warning box|Please be aware that for now only Rocket.Chat up to version '''0.39''' can be installed due to dependencies on the Nodejs version available via software collections.}}
Rocket.Chat requires several higher versions of applications and frameworks than provided by Koozali SME Server by default. Therefore we need to install some '''[[Software Collections]]''' Packages and enable some addition repo's.
# You must have '''SME Server 9.x 64-bit'''
# You must install the '''[[epel]]''' repository
# You must install the '''[[centos-sclo-rh]]''' repository
# You must install the '''[[Software Collections]]''' tool
After having installed the above repo's and installing Software Collections, you can install the required collections by:
yum install rh-python34-python rh-mongodb32-mongodb rh-mongodb32-mongodb-server nodejs010 GraphicsMagick --enablerepo=centos-sclo-rh,epel
After installing the Software Collections we need to update some packages using NodeJS package manager NPM:
nodejs010 GraphicsMagick --enablerepo=centos-sclo-rh,epel
scl enable nodejs010 'npm install -g npm ws inherits n forever forever-service'
scl enable nodejs010 'n 0.10.40'
== Installation of Rocket.Chat==
First we need to create the SME Server services:
For Rocket.Chat:
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/e-smith-service /etc/rc.d/rc7.d/S99rocketchat
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/e-smith-service /etc/rc.d/rc7.d/S99rh-mongodb26-mongod
config set rocketchat service status enabled TCPPort 3000 access public
config set rh-mongodb26-mongod service
For MongoDB (please note the usage of mongod and NOT mongod'''b'''):
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/e-smith-service /etc/rc.d/rc7.d/S99rh-mongodb32-mongod
config set rh-mongodb32-mongod service status enabled access private TCPPort 27017
And to update the ports:
signal-event remoteaccess-update
signal-event remoteaccess-update
Now we can download and install the latest Rocket.Chat version from their [https://rocket.chat/releases/ downloads] repository:
cd /root
cd /root
curl -L https://rocket.chat/releases/latest/download -o rocket.chat.tgz
curl -L https://rocket.chat/releases/0.39.0/download -o rocket.chat.tgz
tar zxvf rocket.chat.tgz
tar zxvf rocket.chat.tgz
mv bundle /opt/Rocket.Chat
mv bundle /opt/Rocket.Chat
Once Rocket.Chat has been downloaded and unpacked, we need to 'register' Rocket.Chat with NodeJS with NPM:
cd /opt/Rocket.Chat/programs/server
cd /opt/Rocket.Chat/programs/server
npm install
scl enable nodejs010 'npm install'
Rocket.Chat has now been installed and you can test-drive you installation.
First we need to set some environment variables manually (Please use your own correct settings):
export ROOT_URL=http://yourserver.com/
export ROOT_URL=http://yourserver.com/
export MONGO_URL=mongodb://localhost:27017/rocketchat
export MONGO_URL=mongodb://localhost:27017/rocketchat
export PORT=3000
export PORT=3000
export MAIL_URL=smtp://localhost:25
and then we can start Rocket.Chat manually (with CTL-C you can quit Rocket.Chat):
cd /opt/Rocket.Chat
cd /opt/Rocket.Chat
node main.js &
node main.js
Browse to http://yourserver:3000 and create the first admin user.

{{Note box|This FIRST user will be the 'master administrator' even if you use [[Rocket_Chat#LDAP_Authentication|'''LDAP authentication''']] for your users. So if even if you use LDAP, this user will still be able to login and grant Rocket.Chat admin rights to [[Rocket_Chat#LDAP_Authentication|LDAP]] accounts.}}

Since SME Server has put it's name in /etc/system-release, the (NodeJS) forever utility will not be able to detect the main distribution name (e.g. CentOS) and will exit with an error. To add 'SME Server' to the list of recognised distributions so that the forever-service tool will run properly, is to execute the following command (don't be disturbed by the Oracle mentioning, it's just to locate the correct position):

{{Note box|Please note that if you change anything on your Rocket.Chat environment such as URL's, subdomain name(s), ports or mail server, you have to run the above again to reflect your new environment. If so, please remove /etc/rc.d/init.d/rocketchat first. (rm /etc/rc.d/init.d/rocketchat).}}

Rocket.Chat will now start at boot time or manually:
service rocketchat start|stop|status|restart
Please note that it may take a little while, up to a minute, for Rocket.Chat to become available. In the mean time you can be shown a HTTP error 503. Please try again in a minute or a bit longer. Why this is? No Idea for now, other that it may be related to MongoDB processes.
==Make Rocket.Chat available on a sub domain==
Install the '''[[Webapps-common]]''' contrib.
To create your sub domain (e.g. https://chat.yourserver.com)
db domains set chat.yourserver.local domain Description "RocketChat" Nameservers internet \
TemplatePath WebAppVirtualHost RequireSSL enabled ProxyPassTarget http://localhost:3000/ ProxyPreserveHost yes
The 'ProxyPassTarget' property could also point to another host (IP) that has Rocket.Chat installed, e.g. a virtual SME Server on the same LAN. In that case, also LDAP and open/close ports have to be taken into consideration.
To expand and activate:
signal-event webapps-update
If your servers' default FQDN is already chat.yourserver.com, there is no need to create a new subdomain. Instead of the above command, you can enter the following:
db domains setprop chat.yourserver.com TemplatePath WebAppVirtualHost RequireSSL enabled ProxyPassTarget http://localhost:3000/ ProxyPreserveHost yes
and you can start/stop/status your rocketchat service e.g.:
To disable the default access on port 3000, for we now access our chat platform via the subdomain, and for security we change the default access method from public to private.
config setprop rocketchat access private
signal-event remoteaccess-update
You can now visit Rocket.Chat at https://chat.yourserver.com. Rocket.Chat will notice that the URL that is being used to access Rocket.Chat has been changed, and will propose to change it to the new URL.

How other browsers such as Firefox and IE manage this is not known, if you do, please add a note.}}
Rocket.Chat uses WebRTC to make voice/video calls. This requires the additional Apache module proxy_wstunnel. This is available from the '''[[fws]]''' repository.
