Install GLPI on OpenSUSE 15.2

1.- Install LAMP on OpenSUSE 15.2

As it is well known, GLPI is a web application created with PHP. Therefore, it is necessary to have a web server configured that can “serve” the application.

On the other hand, the application also requires a database manager to store all the necessary information.

Therefore, you need to have a LAMP server in OpenSUSE 15. Luckily, we have a post that talks about it

How to install LAMP on OpenSUSE 15.2 / 15.1?

Also, you need to install these PHP modules:

php7-ldap php7-opcache php7-APCu php7-xmlrpc php7-exif php7-fileinfo php7-zlib

Now you can continue.

2.- Creating a new database for GLPI

The next step is to create a new database and user for GLPI. This is necessary as a security measure and to assist in the configuration of GLPI.

So access the MariaDB console as follows:

:~$ sudo mysql -u root -p

And start creating the database and the new user. As well as the necessary permissions on it.

> CREATE DATABASE glpidb;
> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON glpidb.* TO 'glpiuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
> EXIT;

Now, we can download GLPI.

3.- Download and install GLPI on OpenSUSE 15.2

The download of GLPI can be done with the wget command. And at the moment of writing this tutorial, the last stable version is 9.4.5.

Most probably you already have wget installed, but it’s always good to be sure:

:~$ sudo zypper in wget

And now, yes, we proceed to start the download:

:~$ cd /tmp/
:~$ wget -c https://github.com/glpi-project/glpi/releases/download/9.4.5/glpi-9.4.5.tgz

Once the download is complete, we proceed to decompress the file.

:~$ tar -xvf glpi-9.4.5.tgz

Then, the generated folder must be moved to the Apache root directory in OpenSUSE. And then, assign permissions to it and indicate that the owner of that folder is Apache.

:~$ sudo mv glpi /srv/www/htdocs/
:~$ sudo chmod 755 -R /srv/www/htdocs/glpi
:~$ sudo chown -R wwwrun:www /srv/www/htdocs/glpi

Now, a new VirtualHost has to be created to handle the running of GLPI. To do this, create a new configuration file:

:~$ sudo nano /etc/apache2/conf.d/glpi.conf

And add the following:

<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerAdmin admin@your_domain.com
   DocumentRoot "/srv/www/htdocs/glpi"
   ServerName glpi.osradar.opensuse

  <Directory "/srv/www/htdocs/glpi">
      Options FollowSymlinks
      AllowOverride All
      Require all granted
  </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Save the changes and close the file. Remember that the domain data has to be changed. I am using glpi.osradar.opensuse as an example.

Then, enable the PHP rewrite module and restart Apache.

:~$ sudo a2enmod rewrite
:~$ sudo systemctl restart apache2

Now, complete the installation using the web interface.

4.- Install GLPI on OpenSUSE 15.2 (II)

Now all you have to do is open the web browser you want and access the server name you set up on the VirtualHost and complete the installation. In my case glpi.osradar.opensuse and you will see the following:

Choose the language of the installation and click on the Ok button. Then, you will see the license terms.

By accepting the license terms, you can choose whether to do an installation from 0 or an upgrade. In this case, it is an installation from 0 so click on the Install button.

On the next screen, the installer will scan the server to make sure everything is OK. Some extensions may be missing and you will be marked with an alert, but if they are mandatory, they will be shown in red. Then click on Continue.

Then, on the next screen, you will have to write the credentials for the connection to the database, previously created.

The installer will make a test connection. If it is successful, you will see the following screen where you need to choose the database created previously.

If everything went well with the database, you will see this image.

Then the installer will ask us if we want to send usage statistics to the development team.

Then, you will see several more installation screens. And in the end you will see one with the default users and passwords.

After that, you will see the Log in screen.

In this case, we will access the administrator user that is glpi and the password is glpi.

Finally, you will see the dashboard.

So, that is it. You can start changing the default password.

Enjoy it.

Conclusion

In this post, you have learned to install GLPI on OpenSUSE 15.2. GLPI is an application to control the informatics equipment of your company. It is an administrative tool, more than anything. It is created in PHP and uses MariaDB as a database manager.

According to Wikipedia:

“GLPI is an open source IT Asset Management, issue tracking system and service desk system (..) The solution is able to build an inventory of all the organization’s assets and to manage administrative and financial tasks”

It is open source because it is released under the GPLv2 license which makes it accessible to many. Moreover, it is perfectly compatible with many operating systems.

So, let us start the job.

Install GLPI on Ubuntu 20.04

1.- Install LAMP on Ubuntu 20.04

One of the main advantages of using and installing GLPI is that it is a web application, and is therefore compatible with many operating systems. Also, the installation is not complicated at all, but it requires that the LAMP stack is installed and working on the server.

So let’s get to work on this first.

How to install LAMP on Ubuntu 20.04?

Also, you have to install other PHP modules that become necessary. These are all of them:

php7.4 php7.4-curl php7.4-zip php7.4-gd php7.4-intl php-pear php7.4-imagick php7.4-imap php-memcache php7.4-pspell php7. 4-tidy php7.4-xmlrpc php7.4-xsl php7.4-mb php7.4-ldap php-cas php-apcu libapache2-mod-php7.4 php7.4-mysql

Once it is installed and correctly configured we can move on to GLPI.

2.- Creating the new user and database for GLPI

With MariaDB already working properly, we now have to create a new user and a new database.

The main reason for this is that GLPI needs to store different data and it is convenient that the root user is not the user that GLPI is going to use. This is for security reasons.

So, open the MariaDB console as the root user:

:~$ sudo mysql -u root -p

And then, create the database, the new user together with the privileges over the new database.

> CREATE DATABASE glpidb;
>GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON glpidb.* TO 'glpiuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
>EXIT;

Remember that you can change the values set here to your own. Above all, the password has to be a strong one and must be safe.

3.- Download GLPI on Ubuntu 20.04

So, it’s time to download GLPI using the wget command. This will make the download faster and we’ll still be in a CLI environment.

Navigate to the /tmp/ folder and download it from there.

:~$ cd /tmp/
:~$ wget -c https://github.com/glpi-project/glpi/releases/download/9.4.5/glpi-9.4.5.tgz

Once the download is complete, decompress the file with the tar command.

:~$ tar -xvf glpi-9.4.5.tgz

Then, move it to the Apache root folder in Ubuntu and assign the correct permissions.

:~$ sudo mv glpi /var/www/html/
:~$ sudo chmod 755 -R /var/www/html/

And to make sure Apache has no problem running all GLPI, make Apache the owner of the folder.

:~$ sudo chown www-data:www-data -R /var/www/html/

After this, create a new Virtualhost for GLPI.

:~$ sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/glpi.conf

And add the following content to the file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerAdmin admin@your_domain.com
   DocumentRoot /var/www/html/glpi
   ServerName your-domain.com

   <Directory /var/www/html/glpi>
        Options FollowSymlinks
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
   </Directory>

   ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/your-domain.com_error.log
   CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/your-domain.com_access.log combined

</VirtualHost>

Replace the value “your-domain” with your own. You are also free to add new rules for this Virtualhost.

Then save the changes and close the text editor.

To enable the new Virtualhost, simply make a symbolic link from the file to the Apache-enabled sites.

:~$ sudo ln -s /etc/apache2/sites-available/glpi.conf /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/glpi.conf

Then, enable Apache’s rewrite module and apply the changes by restarting Apache.

:~$ sudo a2enmod rewrite
:~$ sudo systemctl restart apache2

Now to complete the installation.

4.- Install GLPI on Ubuntu 20.04

Now open a web browser and go to http://your-domain and you will see the following screen where you can choose the installation language:

Then, you will have to accept the license terms:

In the next screen, you will have to specify if it is a new installation or an upgrade. In this case, it is a new installation:

Then, the wizard will verify that the server meets all the requirements.

Now you will see the first step of the installation which is to configure the database credentiials. Just type the previously created credentials:

Then, select the database created and continue the process:

If the installer manages to connect to the database, you will be informed on this screen:

GLPI is an open-source and improved by the community. Therefore you will be asked if you want to anonymously send statistics to the developers:

Then, on the next screen, you will be informed that the installation was successful and you will see the default credentials for each GLPI role. Remember that you can change this.

In the end, you will see the Login screen where you will enter the necessary credentials:

Finally, you will see the main screen of the application and it will be ready for work.

So, enjoy it.

Conclusion

GLPI is an application to control the informatics equipment of your company. It is an administrative tool, more than anything. It is created in PHP and uses MariaDB as a database manager.

We are talking about a solid tool used by many organizations worldwide. Free is not a problem for small projects but it is solid enough to be used in larger ones

Install GLPI on Debian 10

First, connect to your server. To do this, connect to your server using the following command:

:~$ ssh [your-user]@[your-server]

Once you are on the server we can continue.

1.- Upgrade the system

Before starting any installation, it is recommended to upgrade the entire operating system. To do this you need to be a root user. If you do not have the password and your user can use sudo, you can do it like this.

:~$ sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

With this, the server will have installed all the security patches that have been published. This will make Debian 10 Buster more robust and stable.

2.- Install LEMP on Debian 10

Nginx has amazing results on performance issues. So in this case it will be chosen along with MariaDB and PHP. In short, we are talking about the LEMP stack.

To install it, I recommend you read our about it.

How to install LEMP on Debian 10?

Then, we can continue.

3) Preparing the system for GLPI

Before installing GLPI you need to install some PHP libraries first. This will make it run smoothly. It is likely that your system already has them installed but it is better to be sure of it.

:~$ sudo apt install php7.3 php7.3-curl php7.3-zip php7.3-gd php7.3-intl php-pear php-imagick php7.3-imap php-memcache php7.3-pspell php7.3-recode php7.3-tidy php7.3-xmlrpc php7.3-xsl php7.3-mbstring php-gettext php7.3-ldap php-cas php-apcu php7.3-mysql php7.3-fpm

These are all of them.

Then you have to configure a little PHP-FPM to make it compatible with Nginx.

Open the configuration file:

sudo nano /etc/php/7.3/fpm/pool.d/www.conf

And change these two lines of the file so that they look like this:

;listen = /var/run/php7-fpm.sock
listen = 127.0.0.1:9000

Then save the changes by pressing CTRL + O and close it with CTRL + X.

Finally, apply the changes by restarting both services.

~$ sudo systemctl restart nginx php7.3-fpm

4) Creating the new database and user for GLPI

The next step is to create a new database for GLPI. We will do this from the MariaDB console.

Also, for security reasons, it is recommended to create a new user dedicated to that database. This way you will have a more orderly view of the MariaDB instance.

So, go to the MariaDB console:

:~$ sudo mysql -u root -p

And create the database and the user with their respective permissions.

> CREATE DATABASE glpidb;
> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON glpidb.* TO 'glpiuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
> exit;

Of course, you can modify the parameters to make it your own. Especially the password.

5) Install GLPI with Nginx on Debian 10 (I)

We now proceed to download and install GLPI. To do this we first navigate to the temporary folder and proceed to start the download with wget. At the time of writing this post, the last stable version is 9.4.4.

:~$ cd /tmp/
:~$ wget -c https://github.com/glpi-project/glpi/releases/download/9.4.4/glpi-9.4.4.tgz

Then, unzip the folder and assign the appropriate permissions to ensure the proper functioning of the application.

:~$ tar -xvf glpi-9.4.4.tgz
:~$ sudo mv glpi /var/www/html/*
:~$ sudo chmod 755 -R /var/www/html/*
:~$ sudo chown $USER:$USER -R /var/www/html/*

The next step is to create a new Nginx configuration for GLPI. In this sense, it is convenient to make a new server block.

:~$ sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/glpi

And add the following:

server {
 listen 80;
 server_name glpi.osradar.test;
 root /var/www/html/glpi;
 index index.php;
 location / {try_files $uri $uri/ index.php;}
 location ~ \.php$ {
 fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
 fastcgi_index index.php;
 include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
 fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
 include fastcgi_params;
 fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $host;
 }
location ~ /files{
deny all;
}
 }

Of course, you can replace the server_name by yours.

Then, enable the new configuration.

:~$ sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/glpi /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/glpi.conf

Finally, restart both services:

:~$ sudo systemctl restart nginx php7.3-fpm

Now, we can continue the installation using the web browser.

6) Install GLPI with Nginx on Debian 10 (II)

Now, open your web browser and go to http://your-server and complete the installation. You will see the following:

So, choose your language and click OK.

Next, accept the license terms.

Once you have accepted them, you will see the following screen.

Once we have clicked on the install button. The wizard will determine the requirements of the application.

Now, enter MariaDB’s credentials.

Press the Continue button. Next, select the Database.

Then, initialize the database.

After this, you will have the option to collaborate with the project by sending anonymous statistics on the use of the application.

If everything went well, you will see the following screen with the contact credentials of the first users. Of course, you can change this later.

So, log in with the default credentials.

Finally, you will see the dashboard.

And that is it.

Conclusion

In this post, you have learned to install GLPI with Nginx on Debian 10. GLPI is an application to control the informatics equipment of your company. It is an administrative tool, more than anything. It is created in PHP and uses MariaDB as a database manager.

If you prefer Apache over Nginx you can read this post

GLPI in a few words

The GLPI is an application of French origin that provides an integral management of the
an organization’s computer inventory. But not only is it limited to this, but also
also includes an incidence ticket system.

As expected is open source and is developed with PHP. Therefore, what is required is a web server with Apache or nginx as processors. In addition, to store the data, you need MySQL or MariaDB. As you can see, these are requirements of a server.

Install CentOS 8 / RHEL 8 / Oracle Linux 8

As it is an application built for web environments, it is necessary to have a fully functional server. To do this, I will choose Nginx as my HTTP server along with with PHP and MariaDB. That is to say a LEMP server.

Then, the first step is to install a LEMP server on CentOS 8 / RHEL 8 / Oracle. So I invite you to read our about this where we explain you step by step how to do it.

Read How to install LEMP on CentOS 8 / RHEL 8 / Oracle Linux 8?

Prepare MariaDB to work with GLPI

Now that we have the LEMP server running, it is necessary to create a New user and database for GLPI. This is quite simple but we must enter as root user to the MariaDB console.

:~# mysql –u root –p
> CREATE DATABASE glpidb;
> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON glpidb.* TO 'glpiuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'glpipss';
> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
> Exit;

Creating a user dedicated to GLPI other than root is a security measure important.

Download and Install GLPI on CentOS 8 / RHEL 8 / Oracle Linux

Now we can download and install the GLPI. To do this, just download it using wget. If you don’t have it installed, you can do it with the following command:

:~# dnf install wget

Then navigate to the tmp folder and download it.

:~# cd /tmp/
:~# wget -c https://github.com/glpi-project/glpi/releases/download/9.4.3/glpi-9.4.3.tgz

Next, decompress it and move to the nginx document root:

:~# tar xvf glpi-9.4.3.tgz 
:~# mv glpi /usr/share/nginx/html/

After that, change the permissions on the folder so that it can be runned correctly:

:~# chmod 755 -R /usr/share/nginx/html/
:~# chown nginx:nginx -R /usr/share/nginx/html/

Create a new server block to GLPI on CentOS 8 / RHEL 8 / Oracle Linux 8 (Optional)

Now it is necessary to create a new server block for Glpi. In this case, also we have a tutorial for it.

Read, How to create an Nginx server block on CentOS 8 / RHEL 8 / Oracle Linux 8?

Then, we will be able to complete the installation.

Install GLPI on CentOS / RHEL / Oracle Linux 8 using the web interface

Now all that’s left is to complete the installation using the web interface. To do this, go to
to your server and you will see the following image:

Then, choose the language of the installation and accept the license terms.

Then, you can either update a previous installation or start a clean one. Choose the install option.

Then, the installer will check the server for any problems.

Now, you will have to write the MariaDB credentials. Click on the Next option.

Then, if the connection to the database has been successful, you will see the following:

Finally, if everything went well, you will see a message like this:

To enter the GLPI dashboard use glpi as user and glpi password.

This is the main screen of the application.

Conclusion

The Glpi is one of those necessary applications in an organization that wants to have everything a competent computer inventory. In addition to incorporating a reporting system of Incidents, ensures prompt attention to users of systems and equipment of the
company.

GLPI is an application built with web technology. That is, it requires a fully functional LAMP server for the application to work.

Then you have to install LAMP in Debian 10. For that, I invite you to read our post.

Read How to install LAMP on Debian 10?

The only thing to keep in mind is that you have to install some PHP modules.

:~$ sudo apt install php7.3 php7.3-curl php7.3-zip php7.3-gd php7.3-intl php-pear php-imagick php7.3-imap php-memcache php7.3-pspell php7.3-recode php7.3-tidy php7.3-xmlrpc php7.3-xsl php7.3-mbstring php-gettext php7.3-ldap php-cas php-apcu libapache2-mod-php7.3 php7.3-mysql

3.- Create the MariaDB user and database for GLPI

Now that you have a working LAMP server, it is time to create a new MariaDB user for GLPI. We do this for security reasons. We also need a dedicated GLPI database.

So in the terminal, run the following:

:~$ sudo mysql -u root -p

Then, create the database:

> CREATE DATABASE glpidb;

Next, the new user with the password. Then, refresh all privileges.

> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON glpidb.* TO 'glpiuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
> EXIT;

Once created the database and the user, we can continue with the following steps.

4.- Install GLPI on Debian 10

Now we can download and install GLPI in Debian 10. For that, I will use the wget utility to download the file.

:~$ cd /tmp/
:~$ wget -c https://github.com/glpi-project/glpi/releases/download/9.4.3/glpi-9.4.3.tgz

Then, extract it, move it to /var/www/html/ and set the right permissions.

:~$ tar -xvf glpi-9.4.3.tgz
:~$ sudo mv glpi /var/www/html/
:~$ sudo chmod 755 -R /var/www/html/
:~$ sudo chown www-data:www-data -R /var/www/html/

After that, you need to create a new VirtualHost for GLPI.

:~$ sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/glpi.conf

And add the following:

<VirtualHost *:80>
     ServerAdmin admin@your_domain.com
     DocumentRoot /var/www/html/glpi
     ServerName your-domain.com

     <Directory /var/www/html/glpi>
          Options FollowSymlinks
          AllowOverride All
          Require all granted
     </Directory>

     ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/your-domain.com_error.log
     CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/your-domain.com_access.log combined

</VirtualHost>

Save the changes and close the file. Then, enable the new Virtualhost.

:~$ sudo ln -s /etc/apache2/sites-available/glpi.conf /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/glpi.conf
:~$ sudo a2enmod rewrite
:~$ sudo systemctl restart apache2

5.- Complete the installation using the web browser

Now, you can complete the installation using the web browser. Open your web browser and go to http://your-domain/ and you will see this.

Select the language and press OK. Then, Accept the license terms.

Next, select install to begin the process.

The wizard will check the requirements.

Then, setup the database connection.

Next, select the database created and start the process.

Next, you will see this.

Afterward, a screen will appear asking if you want to collaborate by sending information to the project. Finally, you will see this screen.

As you can see in the image, there you have the login and password information according to the profiles.

Next, log in.

And finally, you will see the dashboard.

And that is it.

The tool is build for Apache-PHP-MySQL environments, so you can install it on both windows and linux servers.

GLPI features:

• Inventory of computers, peripherals, network printers and any associated components through an interface, with inventory tools such as: FusionInventory or OCS Inventory.
• Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM).
• Item lifecycle management.
• Licenses management (ITIL compliant).
• Management of warranty and financial information (purchase order, warranty and extension, damping).
• Management of contracts, contacts, documents related to inventory items.

In addition, like any open source project, it is possible to modify and examine its source code.

In this article, i will show you how to install GLPI on Ubuntu Server 18.04.

What you need

The installation of GLPI is really simple, but you must have a previous knowledge in the use of the terminal. Besides installing LAMP stack and of course a computer with Ubuntu Server 18.04.

Let’s get to work.

1. Upgrade the system

First you have to update the system. Doing this will ensure you have the latest package news, as well as the latest security patches. Open a terminal and run.

:~$ sudo -i

When you enter the password, you will be root. Then run:

:~# apt update && apt upgrade

And with this done, you’ll have your system up to date.

2. Install LAMP Stack

GLPI is a web-based application, i.e. you need an installed and fully functional web server. For this tutorial, I will use apache2. It is the most popular web server and is available easily and directly from the Ubuntu repositories. Run:

:~# apt install apache2

Now enable it to start the service as soon as you load the system and initialize the service as well.

:~# systemctl enable apache2
:~# systemctl start apache2

Now if you go to your web browser and access http://IP_SERVER you will see this.

It’s PHP’s turn.

PHP is a programming language in which GLPI is built. You have to install it to run it.

:~# apt install php7.2 php7.2-curl php7.2-gd php7.2-intl php-pear php-imagick php7.2-imap php-memcache php7.2-pspell php7.2-recode php7.2-tidy php7.2-xmlrpc php7.2-xsl php7.2-mbstring php-gettext php7.2-ldap php-cas php7.2-apcu libapache2-mod-php7.2 php7.2-mysql

Finally install MariaDB. Type on a terminal:

:~# apt install mariadb-server

Now run the configuration script to define password and other options.

:~# mysql_secure_installation

After defining the password, you will be asked about other things. Answer Y N Y Y.

Now you have to create a database dedicated to GLPI and a new MariaDB user.

:~# mysql -u root -p

And then creates the database and the new user.

CREATE DATABASE glpidb;
USE glpidb;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON glpidb.* TO 'glpiuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'glpipss';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit;

Of course, you’re free to change the names to whatever you want.

3. Download and install GLPI

Now it’s time to install GLPI. First, download it.

:~# cd /tmp/
wget https://github.com/glpi-project/glpi/releases/download/9.3.1/glpi-9.3.1.tgz

Afterwards, you have to extract it, move it to /var/www/html and assign permissions to it.

:~# tar -xvf glpi-9.3.1.tgz
:~# mv glpi /var/www/html/
:~# chmod 755 -R /var/www/html/
:~# chown www-data:www-data -R /var/www/html/

Now go to your browser and access GLPI to complete the installation http://IP_SERVER/glpi

Then you have to accept the license terms.

On the next screen you will be asked if it is an installation or an upgrade.

Afterwards, the system will make an inspection of the dependencies in need.

On the next screen, you will be prompted to enter the MariaDB for GLPI information.

And at the end, you have select the database created.

It will then initialize the database.

The following screens show that the installation is on the right way.

And finally you will see the log in screen.

When you enter the password, you’ll see something like this.

Conclusion

GLPI is a great system that allows us to obtain computer solutions for our company. You can modify and take inventory, tracking incidents and so on.

We want to know about you, have you used GLPI? How did you like the installation?

The post How to Install GLPI on Ubuntu Server 18.04? appeared first on Linux Windows and android Tutorials.

In computer science, control of equipment assets is vital for a company and especially if it relies heavily on centralized systems. With the goal of solving part of these problems there is GLPi.

GLPi is a free IT service management solution, an incident tracking system and a service desk solution. Published in PHP and distributed under a GPL license.

GLPI more than just a tool

The tool is developed for Apache-PHP-MySQL environments, so it can be installed on both Windows and Linux servers and its easy installation and management allows managing all the support and maintenance of a company in a quick and easy way, so the deployment and implementation are quite small.

Installing GLPI Prerequisites

As mentioned above, GLPI works with a LAMP server. The first thing we need to install is Apache:

              sudo -i

When you enter the password, you will be a root user.

First of all we must have the system updated and the SELinux security module disabled:

             nano /etc/selinux/config

To avoid confusion, the first editable line should be modified, leaving it this way:

             SELINUX=disabled

Or  Allow Http  on firewalld

firewall-cmd --add-service=http --permanent
firewall-cmd --reload

Then we will proceed to the installation:

            yum install httpd

Then we enable it to start the service automatically.

              systemctl enable httpd.service

The next step is to start the apache service and go to the browser to test that the server is running.

             systemctl start httpd.service

In our web browser we go to the ip address of the server:

            http://ip_server

If we see this message, then we’re good.

Installing MariaDB and PHP

Now it’s MariaDB’s turn:

             yum install maridb-server mariadb

After that, we have to enable the service and start it.

             systemctl enable mariadb.service

             systemctl start mariadb.service

Next, we have to execute the configuration script of MariaDB. We say Y,N,Y,Y.

             mysql_secure_installation

GLPI requires a more up-to-date version of php than the one in the official CentOS repositories. Then we must add two repositories: EPEL and REMI.

              wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/Packages/e/epel-release-7-11.noarch.rpm

And:

             wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm

Next we proceed to install both packages.

               rpm -Uvh remi-release-7*.rpm epel-release-7*.rpm

Note: If we already have EPEL added, then skip the installation of that package.

Now we must enable the REMI repo that by default is not.

             yum install yum-utils

Next we enable the php 7.2 repository:

             yum-config-manager –enable remi-php72

Next we can install PHP

              yum install php php-gd php-mysql php-mcrypt php-apcu php-xmlrpc php-pecl-zendopcache php-ldap php-imap php-mbstring php-simplexml php-xml

Then we’ll enable ports 80 and 443 in the firewall.

           firewall-cmd –permanent –zone=public –add-service=http

           firewall-cmd –permanent –zone=public –add-service=https

And Finally:

          firewall-cmd –reload

In order for it all to take effect, we must restart the Apache service:

systemctl restart httpd.service

Downloading and installing GLPI

From the project’s GitHub website we can download the latest stable version and then write the following on the terminal

              wget https://github.com/glpi-project/glpi/releases/download/9.2.3/glpi-9.2.3.tgz

We move it to the apache directory /var/wwww/html/

             mv glpi-9.2.3.tgz /var/www/html/

cd /var/www/html/

Now we decompress it:

            tar xvf /var/www/html/glpi-9.2.3.tgz

Then, we must change the permissions and the owner of the directory:

             chmod 755 /var/www/html/glpi -R

And:

             chown apache:apache /var/www/html/glpi -R

Completing the installation from the browser

We must access from the browser to complete the initial configuration of the GLPI.

            http://IP_SERVER/glpi

And we’ll see this:

Choose the installation language and click on the ok button.

He then refers us to the license agreement. Accept and click on continue button

Then it shows us two options to make an installation from scratch (our case) or to upgrade from a previous version.

Subsequently give us a summary of compatibility with our system, review and click on next. If there is an error, it is convenient to fix it. If you have followed all these steps, you should get perfect results.

The next step is to enter the connection parameters for MariaDB:

Click on continue button. And now we are going to test the mariadb connection creating a new database for glpi. For example glpi.

And we’ll see this:

The next screen is to send data to GLPI to help with its maintenance.

And Finally: installation finished

And we can use it now. The first screen to use is the login screen. glpi/glpi to enter as admin user.

Finally, we have the main screen of the GLPI.

GLPI is a great application for IT organizations that can be extended thanks to plugins and a large development team that keeps the program active.
