Install guacamole with mysql - script

[gt2416]

Guacamole is a web application that allows you to access your PC/server's.
I recently had to set it up because ssh is blocked at my office and I really wanted to do something on my TrueNAS system, guacamole to the rescue !
Along with ssh it also supports vnc,rdp and sftp.
While I was installing it I noted down the steps I took, at the end I realized I can make a script for easy installation. Its a quick and dirty script because I don't know much about sh but anyway you can give it a try.


To get started ssh to your TrueNAS as root then run

fetch https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gt2416/iocage-Guacamole-mysql/main/guacamole.sh
chmod +x guacamole.sh

Finally run it with
./guacamole.sh

This is the first script I've written so feel free to let me know how to improve it and if you have any problems.

I had a look at the script, I confirm you're doing nothing evil with it, but have not run it yet myself, so can't confirm it has no errors.

I like Guacamole, so I will probably try it at some point.

lol well, if you do try it let me know how it goes. I tried to make the script user friendly and easy to use.

hello!

i tried this script. I am running an older version of guacamole and wanted to install fresh.

The script won't run, there is a syntax error somewhere.
"guacamole.sh: 172: Syntax error: end of file unexpected (expecting "fi")"

I tried to run the contents of the script 1 line at a time and i'm close - but guacamole shows an error instead of the login page.
