You can also use another system user with sudo privileges instead of using &#8216;root&#8217; to log in to your VPS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This article will use &#8216;root&#8217; to execute the shell commands. If you want to use your regular user with sudo privileges to run the commands, make sure to append &#8216;sudo&#8217; in front of the commands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This tutorial is written for the Debian 11 server. To check your operating system, run this command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"># lsb_release -a<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>You will get an output like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">No LSB modules are available.\nDistributor ID: Debian\nDescription: Debian GNU\/Linux 11 (bullseye)\nRelease: 11\nCodename: bullseye<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-2-Update-the-System-and-Create-a-User\"><\/span>Step 2. Update the System and Create a User<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before starting, you have to ensure that your Debian 11 packages installed on the server are up to date. You can do this by running the following commands:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"># apt update\n# apt upgrade<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s create a system user<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"># adduser \\\n--system \\\n--shell \/bin\/bash \\\n--gecos 'Gitea Version Control' \\\n--group \\\n--disabled-password \\\n--home \/home\/git \\\ngit<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-3-Install-MariaDB-and-Create-a-Database\"><\/span>Step 3.

Gitea supports PostgreSQL, MySQL\/MariaDB, SQLite, and MSSQL. In this step, we are going to install MariaDB from the default Debian repository.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"># apt install mariadb-server git<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Once installed, the MariaDB server should be up and running. Execute the command below to create a database and user name and give the privilege to the user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">mysql -e \"create database gitea\"\nmysql -e \"grant all privileges on gitea.* to gitea@localhost identified by 'm0d1fyth15'\"<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Replace m0d1fyth15 above with a stronger password.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-4-Download-and-Install-Gitea\"><\/span>Step 4.

Install and Configure Nginx<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>To access Gitea using your domain or subdomain name, we need to install a webserver and configure it as a reverse proxy.
