If you don't have your database properly configured, Metabase won't be able to start. These values should match what you've set in your Metabase config for the MB_DB_TYPE, MB_DB_DBNAME, MB_DB_USER, and MB_DB_PASS environment variables. If you're running postgres or some other database, you need to ensure you've already followed the instructions for your database system to create a database for Metabase, as well as a user that can access that database. We only have a few more quick steps to finish registering our service and having Metabase up and running. The best part of setting up Metabase as a service on a Debian-based system is to be confident it will start up at every system boot. # any other env vars you want available to Metabase

Some Metabase configs have available options, some of which are shown below, separated by | symbols: #!/bin/sh In /etc/default/metabase, replace configurable items (they look like ) with values sensible for your system. The Metabase config fileĬreate your /etc/default/metabase environment config file and open it in your editor: $ sudo touch /etc/default/metabase On Debian systems, services typically expect to have accompanying configs inside etc/default/. "Įcho "Notice: log file is not be removed: '$LOGFILE'" >&2Įcho "Usage: $0 "Įnvironment variables provide a good way to customize and configure your Metabase instance on your server. Kill -15 $(cat "$PIDFILE") & rm -f "$PIDFILE"Įcho -n "Are you really sure you want to uninstall Metabase? That cannot be undone. # run our Metabase cmd as unprivileged user # load Metabase config before we start so our env vars are available Local CMD="nohup java -jar \"$METABASE\" &> \"$LOGFILE\" & echo \$!" # execute the Metabase jar and send output to our log # where should we store the pid/log files? # which (unprivileged) user should we run Metabase as? # where will our environment variables be stored? # Description: Metabase analytics and intelligence platform

# Required-Stop: $local_fs $network $named $time $syslog # Required-Start: $local_fs $network $named $time $syslog The Metabase script below has extra comments to help you know what everything is for. In /etc/init.d/metabase, replace configurable items (they look like ) with values sensible for your system. The Metabase service fileĬreate the /etc/init.d/metabase service file and open it in your editor: $ sudo touch /etc/init.d/metabase So, a Metabase service should live at /etc/init.d/metabase. Services are typically registered at etc/init.d/.

You will use environment variables to configure your Metabase instanceĮvery service needs a script that tells systemd how to manage it, and what capabilities it supports.

You already have nginx and postgres (or another supported database) running on your server.

You will run Metabase using the metabase.jar file.

Anyone can take it from here to do what they need to do on their systems, and should follow best practices for setting up and securing the rest of their server. Note: This is just a bare-bones recipe to get you started. On Debian-based systems, this means registering Metabase as a service that can be started/stopped/uninstalled. Running Metabase on Debian as a service with nginxįor those people who don't (or can't) use Docker in their infrastructure, there's still a need to easily setup and deploy Metabase in production.
