Back up the Abiquo UI
In addition to regular backups, we recommend that you make a quick backup of the UI before enabling branding.
...
Log in to a shell on the Abiquo server with a user with root permissions and make a copy of the UI folder
Code Block mkdir /opt/abiquo/quick_ui_backup tar cvfz /opt/abiquo/quick_ui_backup/ui_`date +%Y%m%d`.tar.gz /var/www/html/ui/
...
Upload themes and logos to the Abiquo UI
Upload an optional default theme to style the login screen and your enterprise themes, including the image files.
...
- Compress your theme folder
- Log in to the Abiquo Server and copy your theme to theme folder
- The theme folder is /var/www/html/ui/theme
For example, using wget from the Abiquo Server to a Linux machine
Code Block wget myuser@mymachine:~/Downloads/mytheme_base_theme.tar.gz /var/www/html/ui/theme
Move or copy any existing theme with this name to another folder name
Code Block cd /var/www/html/ui/theme mv my_custom_theme my_custom_theme_backup
Extract the theme (which will OVERWRITE any theme with the same name). For example, when the theme was compressed with tar and gzip
Code Block tar -zxvf my_custom_theme.tar.gz
Remember to check the file ownership and access settings, because the Abiquo Tomcat server will need to access the branding files
