INSTALLATION
Running in about twenty minutes.
Address and database
Create a subdomain with HTTPS and an empty MySQL database in your hosting panel.
Upload
Upload the LitArbi Server package and open its installer in the browser — it checks the host and writes the configuration.
Licence
Enter your LitArbi Server key (LITSRV-…); the server activates itself for its address.
Sign in
Create the administrator, invite colleagues, and sign in from LitArbi: Settings › LitArbi Server.
We install it for you on your firm’s hosting — included with the server subscription. Your IT can also do it with the installation guide.
REQUIREMENTS
What your hosting needs.
Ordinary web hosting is enough — the kind most firms already have for their website.
| Web server | Apache 2.4 or LiteSpeed (cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin …), or nginx with PHP-FPM |
|---|---|
| PHP | 8.0 or newer, with pdo_mysql, mbstring, curl and sodium — all standard |
| Database | MySQL 5.7+ or MariaDB 10.3+ — one empty database |
| Address | A subdomain such as litarbi.yourfirm.com with an HTTPS certificate (Let’s Encrypt is fine) |
| Disk | The size of your exhibit files, plus a margin — or keep the files in your Nextcloud or SharePoint |
| Connection | Outgoing HTTPS to LitArbi’s licence service, for the licence and updates — the address is in the installation guide |
| Apps | LitArbi for Mac or Windows, with a licence of its own or one the server hands out; any current browser for LitArbi Web |
No shell access, no cron job, no background process. Large files are uploaded in pieces that fit your host’s limits.
AFTER THE BETA
No hosting of your own? Rent the server from us.
For smaller firms without their own IT, we will also rent out hosted LitArbi Servers after the beta, from €9 a month. We only maintain the hosting — what is on the server is your firm’s business, and the data stays in the EU.
- We maintain the hosting — nothing more. We set up the web space and keep it running and up to date. We don’t know what is on your server, and we don’t look: the matters, files and accounts are your firm’s.
- Your data stays in the EU. Hosting and backups in data centres in the EU, under a data processing agreement (Art. 28 GDPR) and a written confidentiality undertaking.
- Encrypted, as on your own hosting. Exhibit files are stored encrypted; end-to-end encrypted matters are ciphertext to us too — their key exists only on the members’ computers.
- Set up for you. At your-firm.hosted.litarbi.app or your own domain, with a certificate — installed, licensed and handed over to your administrator.
- Backed up off-site. Daily backups at the host, plus the server’s nightly restore points at a second location in the EU — sealed with a key only your firm holds.
- Yours alone, and portable. A separate hosting account with its own files, database and system user. Move to your own hosting whenever you like — everything comes with you.
Three sizes, a month billed yearly: 10 GB €9, 50 GB €19, 150 GB €39 (billed monthly €12, €24, €49), excl. VAT. Hosting is an add-on to the server subscription — the server fee and users as usual, each lawyer with a Solo or Firm licence.
