h2(#install_apiserver). Install API server and dependencies
On a Debian-based system, install the following packages:
h2(#configure). 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:
+Configure the API server to connect to your database by updating @/etc/arvados/api/database.yml@. Replace the @xxxxxxxx@ database password placeholder with the "password you generated during database setup":install-postgresql.html#api. Be sure to update the @production@ section.

-h2. Configure the database connection

-Edit @/etc/arvados/api/database.yml@ and replace the @xxxxxxxx@ database password placeholders with the PostgreSQL password you generated above.

h2(#configure_application). Configure the API server
Edit @/etc/arvados/api/application.yml@ to configure the settings described in the following sections. 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.
