Linux
This guide explains how to install Workplace AI on a Linux single server architecture. Before you begin, we recommend that you read the Prerequisites section below and verify that you meet the various requirements for your installation.
Linux comprises a broad variety of distributions. Workplace AI was developed and tested against Ubuntu and Red Hat. It is expected that distributions similar to these (sharing the same package managers) should work although it might be the case that some knowledge of the appropriate package repositories is required.
Developed against:
Ubuntu
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
Ubuntu compatible distributions:
Debian
Red Hat compatible distributions:
Alma Linux
Rocky Linux
Amazon Linux
CentOS Stream
Fedora
Install tested successfully:
RHEL 7 (requires ‘yum’ commands in place of ‘dnf’)
RHEL 8
RHEL 9
Ubuntu 2x.04 (LTS)
Amazon Linux AL2023 (AL2 was more similar to Red Hat so should also be fine but hasn’t been tested)
