+# Installation on Debian 9/Ubuntu 16.04
+
+This tutorial will give you step-by-step commands to install the latest stable release of FreshRSS with Apache and MySQL using git. It's always recommended that you [backup your installation](05_Backup.md) before updating
+
+Please note: Commands need to be run as an administrator; either perform the following from a sudo shell (`sudo -s`) or use an administrator account.
+
+## Part 1: Setting up and configuring the LAMP stack
+Begin by installing Apache, and enable Apache modules needed for FreshRSS
+```
+apt install apache2
+a2enmod headers expires rewrite ssl
+```
+
+Then, you have to configure Apache. You can create a file in `/etc/apache2/sites-available`, based on [our example configuration file](10_ServerConfig.md). Once you're done, create a symbolic link from this file to the `sites-enabled` folder:
+
+```
+ln -s /etc/apache2/sites-available/freshrss.conf /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/freshrss.conf
+```
+
+Next, install PHP and the necessary modules
+```
+apt install php php-curl php-gmp php-intl php-mbstring php-sqlite3 php-xml php-zip
+```
+
+Install the PHP module for Apache
+```
+apt install libapache2-mod-php
+```
+
+Next, we'll need to install and configure MySQL. Install MySQL components like so:
+```
+sudo apt install mysql-server mysql-client php-mysql
+```
+
+MySQL must now be started:
+```
+service mysql-server start
+```
+
+We'll need to configure MySQL.
+**Note:** As you've just installed mysql, there will be no root password; simply hit enter on the first step
+```
+mysql_secure_installation
+```
+
+And restart it
+```
+service mysql-server restart
+```
+
+Finally, restart MySQL and the web server
+```
+
+service apache2 restart
+```
+
+## Part 2: Installing FreshRSS
+
+Begin by installing git, if you don't already have it installed.
+```
+apt install git
+```
+
+Next, change to the install directory and download FreshRSS using git
+```
+cd /usr/share/
+git clone https://github.com/FreshRSS/FreshRSS.git
+```
+
+Change to the new FreshRSS directory, and set the permissions so that your Web server can access the files
+```
+cd FreshRSS
+chown -R :www-data .
+sudo chmod -R g+r .
+```
+We'll also need to allow the data folder to be written to, like so:
+```
+chmod -R g+w ./data/
+```
+
+Optional: If you would like to allow updates from the Web interface, set write permissions
+```
+chmod -R g+w .
+```
+
+Finally, symlink the public folder to the root of your web directory
+```
+ln -s /usr/share/FreshRSS/p /var/www/html/
+```
+
+## Part 3: Creating a Database for FreshRSS
+
+Start a MySQL session. running this command will ask you for the MySQL password you set earler, and then put you into a prompt that should look like `MariaDB [(none)]>`
+```
+mysql -u root -p
+```
+
+From the MySQL prompt (`MariaDB [(none)]>`), run the following commands, substituting `<username>`, `<password>`, and `<database_name>` for real values.
+```
+CREATE USER '<username>'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '<password>';
+CREATE DATABASE `databaseName`;
+GRANT ALL privileges ON `databaseName`.* TO 'userName'@localhost;
+FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
+QUIT;
+```
+
+A brief explanation of the previous command block:
+* You first create a database user for FreshRSS to use.
+* Then you create a database for FreshRSS to store data in.
+* You grant permissions for the user you created to read, write, and modify the database.
+* Flushing privileges reloads the permissions, which makes the previous command take effect.
+
+## Part 4: Finishing the Installation
+
+You can now finish the installation from a web browser by navigating to to `http://<your_server>/p` and following the graphical prompts.
+Alternatively, you can finish the installation using [the cli](https://github.com/FreshRSS/FreshRSS/tree/master/cli)
