Installation on Debian/Ubuntu¶
We recommend installing Yucca on an Ubuntu Long Term Support (LTS) operating system such as 18.04 and older. In this case, work is possible on any other Linux distribution. You will also need Docker to work, installation instructions are available on the official site.
Quick install Docker
bash <(curl -sSL https://get.docker.com)
Installation via the package manager¶
When upgrading to a new version, first stop the server
sudo systemctl stop yucca
Run arch to find out your architecture

Manual installation¶
Let's start by creating a user and a group, then add a new user to the docker group to be able to work with Docker containers:
sudo useradd -M -U -s /bin/false -b /opt/yucca -G docker yucca
Create a directory for installation and go to it, download the latest version of Yucca:
sudo mkdir -p /opt/yucca/ffmpeg
cd /opt/yucca
sudo wget https://releases.yucca.app/v0.6.0/linux_amd64/free/yucca -O /opt/yucca/yucca
sudo chmod +x /opt/yucca/yucca
sudo mkdir -p /opt/yucca/ffmpeg
cd /opt/yucca
sudo wget https://releases.yucca.app/v0.6.0/linux_arm/free/yucca -O /opt/yucca/yucca
sudo chmod +x /opt/yucca/yucca
sudo mkdir -p /opt/yucca/ffmpeg
cd /opt/yucca
sudo wget https://releases.yucca.app/v0.6.0/linux_arm64/free/yucca -O /opt/yucca/yucca
sudo chmod +x /opt/yucca/yucca
sudo mkdir -p /opt/yucca/ffmpeg
cd /opt/yucca
sudo wget https://releases.yucca.app/v0.6.0/linux_amd64/ent/yucca -O /opt/yucca/yucca
sudo chmod +x /opt/yucca/yucca
sudo mkdir -p /opt/yucca/ffmpeg
cd /opt/yucca
sudo wget https://releases.yucca.app/v0.6.0/linux_arm/ent/yucca -O /opt/yucca/yucca
sudo chmod +x /opt/yucca/yucca
sudo mkdir -p /opt/yucca/ffmpeg
cd /opt/yucca
sudo wget https://releases.yucca.app/v0.6.0/linux_arm64/ent/yucca -O /opt/yucca/yucca
sudo chmod +x /opt/yucca/yucca
Installation ffmpeg and ffprobe:
FFmpeg version not lower than 4.0
You can use the static assembly we suggested, or any other, provided that ffmpeg and ffprobe are resolved into env by a standard name

Generating a default configuration file:
sudo /opt/yucca/yucca server --config emtpy --show-config | sed 's|data_dir = ""|data_dir = "/opt/yucca/data"|' > /opt/yucca/yucca.toml
We set the owner and access rights:
sudo chown -R yucca:yucca /opt/yucca
sudo chmod -R 2775 /opt/yucca
Create a systemd unit file and update the list of daemons for the changes to take effect:
sudo tee /lib/systemd/system/yucca.service <<EOF

Now you can start the server and test it
sudo systemctl enable yucca
sudo systemctl start yucca
