Installation instructions

Pre-installation

Upgrade to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS if you are not already running FileCloud on it.

If your Linux server is not in a isolated environment where regular users are prevented from using SSH login, we recommend enabling authentication for the MongoDB service to prevent unauthorized access through port forwarding.
Upgrade to the latest supported Version of MongoDB Version 7.
If your CPU does not have the AVX instruction set, MongoDB 7 (and MongoDB 6) will not run.
To check whether your CPU has the instruction set, run:
```
#lscpu | grep -i avx"
```

If you do not have the AVX instruction set, install one of the select Intel and AMD processors.
