Supported Distribution Packages¶

Installing ownCloud on Linux from the openSUSE Build Service packages is the preferred method. These are maintained by ownCloud engineers, and you can use your package manager to keep your ownCloud server up-to-date. Ready-to-use packages are available at the ownCloud repository for a variety of Linux distributions. Follow the instructions for your distro to add the oBS repository, download and install the repository signing key, and install ownCloud. Then run the Installation Wizard to complete your installation. (see Installation Wizard).

You can still get 7.0.5, which is the latest 7.0 version. It is recommended to use the latest stable 8.x version, but if you wish to roll back an upgrade to 8.x, or delay upgrading, use this direct link to 7.0.5.

If your distribution is not listed, your Linux distribution may maintain its own ownCloud packages, or you may prefer to install from source code (see Manual Installation on Linux).
