• Disk : 25 GB
• RAM : 1GB
• vCPU : 2
• Web Server : Nginx
• Database : MariaDB
• PHP : 8.0 Must be for Zabbix 8.0

Step #01: For ready update and upgrade and change host name.

root@zabbix:~# apt update && apt -y upgrade
root@zabbix:~# apt install -y apt-transport-https lsb-release ca-certificates

Change hostname

root@zabbix:~# vi /etc/hosts
192.168.1.5 zabbix

Step #02: Install php package and Zabbix 7.0

root@zabbix:~# apt update && apt -y upgrade
root@zabbix:~# apt install -y apt-transport-https lsb-release ca-certificates
root@zabbix:~# apt install -y php php-mysql php-common php-cli php-common php-json php-readline php-mbstring php-gd php-zip php-curl
root@zabbix:~# nano /var/www/html/info.php

Insert php info code into info.php file

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Then access your server ip address as like below.

http://192.168.1.5/info.php

Step #03: Install Database Server for Zabbix 8.0

root@zabbix:~# apt install -y mariadb-server
root@zabbix:~# wget https://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/8.0/release/debian/pool/main/z/zabbix-release/zabbix-release_latest_8.0+debian13_all.deb
root@zabbix:~# dpkg -i zabbix-release_latest_8.0+debian13_all.deb
root@zabbix:~# apt update
root@zabbix:~# apt install -y zabbix-server-mysql zabbix-frontend-php zabbix-nginx-conf zabbix-sql-scripts zabbix-agent

Step #04: Create database and import database into created database.

root@zabbix:~# mysql -uroot -p

By default mysql root password is blank. after login mysql terminal then create database with user password.

MariaDB [(none)]> SELECT user,authentication_string,plugin,host FROM mysql.user;
MariaDB [(none)]> ALTER USER root@localhost IDENTIFIED VIA mysql_native_password;
MariaDB [(none)]> SET PASSWORD = PASSWORD('P@ssw0rd0@123');
MariaDB [(none)]> SELECT user,authentication_string,plugin,host FROM mysql.user;
MariaDB [(none)]> create database zabbix_db character set utf8mb4 collate utf8mb4_bin;
MariaDB [(none)]> create user zabbix_user@localhost identified by 'P@ssw0rd0@123';
MariaDB [(none)]> grant all privileges on zabbix_db.* to zabbix_user@localhost;
MariaDB [(none)]> set global log_bin_trust_function_creators = 1;
MariaDB [(none)]> flush privileges;
MariaDB [(none)]> \q

Import zabbix default database using below command.

root@zabbix:~# zcat /usr/share/zabbix/sql-scripts/mysql/server.sql.gz | mysql --default-character-set=utf8mb4 -uzabbix_user -p zabbix_db

Change global log_bin_trust_function_creators

root@zabbix:~# mysql -uroot -p

set global log_bin_trust_function_creators = 0;
flush privileges;
\q

Check Zabbix server config file for database name, database password  and database user are included.

root@zabbix:~# nano /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf

DBName=zabbix_db
DBUser=zabbix_user
DBPassword=passw0rd@123

Change nginx server config.

Remove # from below lines.

listen 80;
server_name 192.168.1.5;
