I have a local OS repository that is used by my local machines to get the Centos updates from.
I realised it has stopped working and it turned out that the disk is full.
The machine is hosted on a VMWare ESXi 6.7 server. Below are the steps needed to go through to get the partition size extended.

If you have followed my posts on how to install Jira, Confluence and Bitbucket in past, you probably have ended up installing Posgresql-server version 9.2. That version still is the latest version that Centos7 has on its official repository.
The problem is Atlassian dropped support for that version few months back but you still could install the updates. Last month when I updated to the latest version of Jira (7.11.0), I had an oops!! moment when server failed to start due to unsupported database server. Luckily I had a recent full back-up of the server and could recover easily.
Matomo (formerly Piwik) is a free and open source analytics platform. Here i will go through the installation and setup of full server on a Centos 7 machine.
Simplest and quickest way is to run the installation script i have created here.

Please note that the script is not designed to handle all situations and produce errors etc. It is meant to be run on a fresh installation of Centos 7. It will install and configure all you need to run Matomo server.
This should take than 5 minutes to fully install the Matomo server.
