Metabase Installation Guide

This guide provides all the key information and getting-started instructions after a successful Metabase installation via DeploySage-CLI.

First-Time Setup​

Metabase is now running and accessible through an Nginx reverse proxy. To complete the setup, you need to create your administrator account.

Service Management​

Metabase runs as a systemd service. You can manage it using standard systemctl commands.

Since Metabase is behind an Nginx proxy, you may also need to manage Nginx:

# Check the status of the Metabase service
sudo systemctl status metabase

# Restart the Metabase service
sudo systemctl restart metabase

# View the latest logs from Metabase
sudo journalctl -u metabase -f
sudo systemctl status nginx
sudo systemctl reload nginx
