h2. Set up the database
Generate a new database password. Nobody ever needs to memorize it or type it, so we'll make a strong one:
Edit @/etc/arvados/api/application.yml@ to configure the settings described in the following sections. The deployment script will consistently deploy this to the API server's configuration directory. The API server reads both @application.yml@ and its own @config/application.default.yml@ file. The settings in @application.yml@ take precedence over the defaults that are defined in @config/application.default.yml@. The @config/application.yml.example@ file is not read by the API server and is provided as a starting template only.
-@config/application.default.yml@ documents additional configuration settings not listed here. You can "view the current source version":https://arvados.org/projects/arvados/repository/revisions/master/entry/services/api/config/application.default.yml for reference.

h2(#set_up). Set up Web servers
For best performance, we recommend you use Nginx as your Web server front-end, with a Passenger backend for the main API server and a Puma backend for API server Websockets. To do that:
<notextile>
<ol>
-<li><a href="https://www.phusionpassenger.com/documentation/Users%20guide%20Nginx.html">Install Nginx and Phusion Passenger</a>.</li>
+<li><a href="https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/walkthroughs/deploy/ruby/ownserver/nginx/oss/install_passenger_main.html">Install Nginx and Phusion Passenger</a>.</li>
<li><p>Puma is already included with the API server's gems. We recommend you run it as a service under <a href="http://smarden.org/runit/">runit</a> or a similar tool. Here's a sample runit script for that:</p>
cd /var/www/arvados-api/current
echo "Starting puma in `pwd`"
-# You may need to change arguments below to match your deployment, especially -u.
-exec chpst -m 1073741824 -u www-data:www-data -e "$envdir" \
+# Change arguments below to match your deployment, "webserver-user" and
+# "webserver-group" should be changed to the user and group of the web server
+# process. This is typically "www-data:www-data" on Debian systems by default,
+# other systems may use different defaults such the name of the web server
+# software (for example, "nginx:nginx").
+exec chpst -m 1073741824 -u webserver-user:webserver-group -e "$envdir" \
bundle exec puma -t 0:512 -e production -b tcp://127.0.0.1:8100
