Spire.Cloud.Office is a HTML5-based document editor that allows users to view and edit Word and Excel documents in a web browser. After installing it on your server, you'll be able to embed the editor in your own web application. This article will show you how to install Spire.Cloud.Office for Linux on CentOS 7.
Step 1. Configure the Environment
1) Turn off the firewall
Run the script firewall-cmd --state as root to view the firewall status. If the status is "not running", no other settings required; if the status is "running", run the script systemctl stop firewalld.service to shut down the firewall.
2) Configure a static IP
Run the script vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ens32 (ens32 can be replaced by your network name) to open the network configuration file to configure a static IP address.
Press I to enter the editing mode, change the value of BOOSPROTO to "static", and add IP address, net mask, gateway, and DNS server at the end. After edits are completed, press Esc and then enter the script :wq to save the changes and exit.
Enter the script systemctl restart network to restart the network service, and then run the script ip addr to check whether the IP address has been successfully applied.
