Install SummitPSA with one command

The fastest way to install SummitPSA is the one-command installer, which sets up the full Docker stack for you.

Before you start

Make sure your host meets the requirements: a Linux server with Docker Engine, the docker compose v2 plugin, and openssl installed, run as root. Have these three values ready:

• The public URL for this install (for example https://psa.yourcompany.com).
• The super-admin email.
• Your license key (SUMMIT-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX).

Run the installer

Run the installer as root. When run interactively it will prompt for the three values above (it can also read them from environment variables — see Scripted / unattended install).

What happens next

1. The installer authenticates to the registry with your license key and pulls the application image.
2. It creates the install directory (default /opt/summitpsa), generates secrets, and writes .env.docker and docker-compose.yml.
3. It starts the stack with docker compose up -d and waits for the app to respond (first run builds the database; allow up to ~3 minutes).

Finish in the browser

The app listens on 127.0.0.1:8001 only. Point your reverse proxy at it and open your public URL, or open an SSH tunnel, then complete the setup wizard. Your license key is already configured, so the wizard will not ask for it again.
