Installing Metronome on ISPConfig involves several steps. Here’s a comprehensive tutorial:

Step 1: Add Metronome Repository

First, add the Metronome repository to your package manager’s sources list:

sudo echo "deb http://packages.prosody.im/debian jessie main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/metronome.list

sudo wget http://prosody.im/files/prosody-debian-packages.key -O - | sudo apt-key add -

Step 2: Install Dependencies

Now, install the necessary dependencies for Metronome:

sudo apt-get install git lua5.1 liblua5.1-0-dev
lua-filesystem libidn11-dev libssl-dev lua-zlib lua-expat lua-event
lua-bitop lua-socket lua-sec luarocks

Step 3: Create Metronome User

Create a user specifically for Metronome:

sudo adduser --no-create-home --disabled-login --gecos 'Metronome' metronome

Step 4: Clone Metronome Repository

Clone the Metronome repository from GitHub to a directory of your choice (e.g., /opt):

cd /opt

git clone https://github.com/maranda/metronome.git metronome

Step 5: Configure and Install Metronome

Navigate to the Metronome directory and configure the installation:

cd ./metronome

./configure --ostype=debian --prefix=/usr

make

make install

Step 6: Configure ISPConfig

You’ll need to configure ISPConfig to work with Metronome. This typically involves setting up domains, users, and DNS records within ISPConfig’s interface.

Step 7: Start Metronome

Finally, start the Metronome service:

systemctl start metronome

Additional Configuration

  • You may need to configure Metronome further depending on your specific use case, such as setting up SSL certificates or configuring network settings.
  • Ensure that necessary firewall rules are in place to allow traffic to and from Metronome.

That’s it! You should now have Metronome installed and configured to work with ISPConfig.
