QuerySurge™ Single Machine Installation Procedure
Note: See our article on permissions required for installation on Linux here.
Prepare for Installation
1. Download the QuerySurge Installer to the machine you want to install QuerySurge on.
Note: Newer browser versions have started modifying Linux .run file extensions to ".txt" on Windows. If you download your QuerySurge installer on Windows prior to moving it to Linux, it may show up as querysurge-installer-x.x.x-linux-x64.txt instead of querysurge-installer-x.x.x-linux-x64.run. The installer should be intact, however, and you can either restore the ".run" extension, or you can leave it as it is. The installation on Linux should proceed normally either way.
2. At the Linux prompt, use the cd command to go to the directory where you have downloaded the installer.
3. At the prompt, issue the command ls –al to list the filename. You should see a sequence similar to the following (where 'x.x.x' is the QuerySurge version number):
-rw-rw-r--. 1 root root 232635922 Nov 21 11:07 querysurge-installer-x.x.x-linux-x64.run
4. Type chmod +x <filename> at the prompt to make the installer file executable, where is the QuerySurge installer name from the previous command:
chmod +x querysurge-installer-x.x.x-linux-x64.run
5. Type ls -al again to confirm this change – to the left of the file listing, you should see -rwxrwxr-x:
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 root root 232635922 Nov 21 11:07 querysurge-installer-x.x.x-linux-x64.run
Note: Make sure all antivirus software (or similar software) is shut down before you start the installation, as these processes can interfere with the installation process, potentially breaking your installation.
Install QuerySurge
6. At the prompt, issue the command ./ where is the QuerySurge installer shown from the ls command (where 'x.x.x' is the QuerySurge version number):
./querysurge-installer-x.x.x-linux-x64.run --mode text

The installation of one agent is required as a minimum although the installation of additional agents is encouraged. Operating Systems (OS) have a limit of one Agent per server. You can repeat this procedure on additional OS's.
Note: The local firewall may require ports to be opened. The default QuerySurge ports are 80 (HTTP) and 3306 (database), however you may have modified these during installation. If the ports used during installation are blocked, the firewall may be the cause.
The core installation of QuerySurge is now complete.
Important: Be sure to back up the QuerySurge database regularly in order to Safeguard QuerySurge Data. Your only protection against data loss is a regular backup schedule. In the case of a severe outage your only possibility of recovery is based on a recent backup.
See this Knowledge Base article for backup procedures.
