LAMP stands for Linux, Apache web server, MariaDB, and PHP. Together they can make a computer a functional web server that can run many websites and complex web applications such as WordPress.

So it is a good idea to know how to install this software stack that will serve as a base to install many other applications.

So, let’s get started.

Install LAMP on Debian 11

To start our post, we need to start with a clean install of Debian 11 which is quite easy to install. It is also recommended that you have it updated with these commands.

apt update
apt upgrade

These commands are executed as the root user. But you can also enable sudo on Debian 11. So if you have it enabled just prefix the sudo command with the rest.

With the system upgrade, we can continue the post.

Install Apache and PHP on Debian 11

Apache is an open-source web server that is very popular around the world. On the other hand, PHP is a web programming language that, while not the only one, is one of the most popular and used by all kinds of developers.

The installation of both tools is easy thanks to the fact that they are included in the official Debian 11 repositories. This process is detailed in our post

How to install Apache on Debian 11?

There you can find all the necessary information on how to install both tools.

Install MariaDB on Debian 11

The next step is to install and properly configure MariaDB which will serve as our database manager. MariaDB has many important features but the support that many web applications give to it is one of the main ones.

For example, applications such as WordPress, GLPI, and others support MariaDB, so installing it is vital.

For that, I invite you to read our post

How to install MariaDB on Debian 11?

There you can not only install it but also get it ready for us to start using it.

LAMP on Debian 11 Conclusion

In this post, we have shown you how to install the LAMP stack on Debian 11. To do this, we have relied on our posts where we detail the installation process of each of the components. This does not make the post longer and makes it easier to understand.

The post Install LAMP on Debian 11 appeared first on Linux Windows and android Tutorials.

MariaDB is a well-known archi Database Relationships Management System that is a MySQL fork. This is due to the purchase of Sun Mycrosystem by Oracle. It is perfectly compatible with MySQL and is available in most Linux distributions.

Therefore, it is quite popular and many developers use it for their applications or even to manage the most sensitive data you can imagine.

So, let’s go for it.

Install MariaDB on Debian 11

As it usually happens, MariaDB is available from the official Debian 11 repositories. If you want to check it out, then, just run the following command

apt search mariadb

There you will see many packages related to MariaDB such as the server and the client.

So, to install the server that concerns us today, then you can run the following command

apt install mariadb-server

After this operation, 157 MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

There is a package that refers to the MariaDB client which is mariadb-client that you can install at your convenience.

To check the version of MariaDB installed, you can run the following command

mariadb --version
mariadb Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.5.11-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using EditLine wrapper

As with other system services, when MariaDB is installed, it will be started and enabled so that it can start with the system.

You can stop the service by running

systemctl stop mariadb

If you want to start it again, then run

systemctl start mariadb

Finally, you can check the status of the service by running this command

systemctl status mariadb

Preparing MariaDB for use

When MariaDB is installed, it does not include a password for the root user, so it is immediately necessary to set one. For this, we have the mysql_secure_installation script to help us with this.

mysql_secure_installation

When prompted for the root user password, just press ENTER:

Enter current password for root (enter for none):

Now you can define the MariaDB authentication protocol.

If You already have your root account protected, so you can safely answer 'n'.
Switch to unix_socket authentication [Y/n]

And now yes, you can change the root password by answering Y to the question

Change the root password? [Y/n]
New password:
Re-enter new password:
Password updated successfully!
Reloading privilege tables...
... Success!

Then, there follows a series of questions that have to do with MariaDB configuration and security. You can answer each one AND

Remove anonymous users? [Y/n] Y
Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n] Y
Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n] Y
Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n] Y

And then the script will finish executing.

With this, MariaDB will be ready for you to use and access the shell.

mysql -u root -p

Enter password:
Welcome to the MariaDB monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MariaDB connection id is 54
Server version: 10.5.11-MariaDB-1 Debian 11
Copyright (c) 2000, 2018, Oracle, MariaDB Corporation Ab, and others.
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the current input statement.
MariaDB [(none)]>

So, enjoy it

Conclusion

MariaDB is a database driver widely used by many programming enthusiasts. Learning how to install it can pave the way to getting the most out of it in this area.

The post Install MariaDB on Debian 11 appeared first on Linux Windows and android Tutorials.

MariaDB is a well-known archi Database Relationships Management System that is a MySQL fork. This is due to the purchase of Sun Mycrosystem by Oracle. It is perfectly compatible with MySQL and is available in most Linux distributions.

In Rocky Linux 8 / AlmaLinux 8 / CentOS 8 the version of MariaDB that is available in the official repositories is 10.3 but recently has seen the release of version 10.6 with some interesting new features.

So, if you want to take advantage of having a recent version of this database manager, then welcome.

Install MariaDB 10.6 on Rocky Linux 8 / AlmaLinux 8 / CentOS 8

MariaDB’s support with Linux is quite good and proof of this is that it provides us with a dedicated repository for Rocky Linux 8 / AlmaLinux 8 / CentOS 8 to facilitate installation.

So, access your server or start a terminal session and update the system. In this post, I worked as the root user. Also, you can use sudo if your user has permission to do so.

dnf update

And make sure you have installed the nano text editor

dnf install nano

Then we have to create a new repository entry in the DNF configuration which is /etc/yum.repos.d/

So, create a file called mariadb.repo

nano /etc/yum.repos.d/mariadb.repo

And add the following information:

[mariadb]
name = MariaDB
baseurl = http://yum.mariadb.org/10.6/rhel8-amd64
module_hotfixes=1
gpgkey=https://yum.mariadb.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-MariaDB
gpgcheck=1 

Then save the changes and close the editor.

Now install MariaDB 10.6

dnf install mariadb-server

During the installation, you will have to accept the GPG key from the repository and the installation will continue.

Then you have to start the MariaDB service:

systemctl start mariadb

and proceed to the configuration with the mariadb_secure_installation script

mariadb_secure_installation
Switch to unix_socket authentication [Y/n] y
Remove anonymous users? [Y/n]
Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n]
Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n]
Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n]

After the installation is complete, check the installed version:

mysql --version
mysql  Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.6.3-MariaDB, for Linux (x86_64) using readline 5.1

So, you can enjoy MariaDB.

Conclusion

MariaDB 10.6 is a good improvement over previous versions. But it is not always available in the official repositories of other Linux distributions. Today you have learned how to install it in Rocky Linux 8 / AlmaLinux 8 / CentOS 8.

What is the LAMP stack?

The LAMP stack is the union of several application components that allow to have a functional web server. With LAMP it is possible to develop and deploy web applications created in PHP.

Installing the LAMP stack on Fedora 34

(L)inux

The first component is Linux. In this case, we are using Fedora as the Linux distribution. Fedora is quite stable for these purposes, but it also serves to host applications as if it were a server.

(A)pache

The second component is the HTTP server. The easiest server to use and also one of the most popular is HTTPD which is the Apache project server. Fortunately, it is found in the official repositories of the distribution, which facilitates the installation.

To do this, open a terminal and execute the following command:

:~$ sudo dnf install httpd

Before you can use the server, you must initialize the service. In other words, you have to start it. To do this, we use systemd to do it.

:~$ sudo systemctl start httpd

If you want the service to start along with the system, then run this command:

:~$ sudo systemctl enable httpd

Now each time the system is started, httpd will be started.

However, Fedora values security very much and will not allow httpd to run if port 80 and 443 are not opened in the firewall. So let’s do it.

$ sudo firewall-cmd zone=public add-service=http permanent
success
$ sudo firewall-cmd reload
success

Now, open your web browser and go to http://your-server or http://localhost depending on where you are installing LAMP. You willl see the following:

That means Apache is functioning perfectly.

Installing LAMP stack on Fedora 34 – (P)hp

Now for web applications to run smoothly, you need to install PHP. PHP is one of the most popular languages for web programming. In fact, the vast majority of web applications are created with PHP. To install it along with its main modules, you have to execute the following command:

:~$ sudo dnf install php php-common php-pecl-apcu php-cli php-pear php-pdo php-mysqlnd php-pgsql php-gd php-mbstring php-xml

Now you have to test that PHP works properly, so you have to create a file with some php code and see if you run it.

:~$ sudo nano /var/www/html/test.php

And add the following:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

If you do not have nano installed, it is better to do it with the following command:

:~$ sudo dnf install nano

For all this to work, you have to restart the server:

:~$ sudo systemctl restart httpd

And then, open it from the web browser. http://your-server/test.php or http://localhost/test.php

This means that PHP and Apache are working correctly.

Installing LAMP stack on Fedora 34 – (M)ariaDB

MariaDB is a MySQL fork. Therefore, we are in the presence of a relational database management system. It is included in most existing Linux distributions. Also, it is perfectly compatible with MySQL and its commands as well as its engines. It is the last component of LAMP.

Keep in mind that MariaDB is used to store the data that applications require as they are being used. That is to say, no transactional system should be executed without a database manager. So it is vital to install it.

To do this, run the following command:

:~$ sudo dnf install mariadb-server

Then, at the end of the installation, start the service as with Httpd.

:~$ sudo systemctl start mariadb

And if you want it to run at system startup, just run this command:

:~$ sudo systemctl enable mariadb

Now, you have to secure the installation with the mysql_secure_installation script. With this script you will be able to define a root password and other small configurations.

:~$ sudo mysql_secure_installation

After defining the root password you will be asked other configuration questions. I answered yes to everything.

Remove anonymous users? [Y/n] Y 
Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n] Y
Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n] Y
Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n] y

Now, you have the LAMP stack installed in Fedora 34 without problems.

Conclusion

The LAMP stack is a set of vital applications to have a basic and functional web server. It is the basis for most web applications. And it is necessary for the development of applications and to serve them. Each one of the elements of the stack can be installed without problems but its administration would give for many articles. Anyway today you have learned to deploy it in its basic form.

DbGate is a modern database management client that works with both SQL drivers such as MariaDB, MySQL; and with NoSQL such as MongoDB.

We are talking about a Free and open-source application that has been released under the MIT license. This makes that you can use it in many projects of diverse nature.

Another aspect to take into account with DbGate is that it is cross-platform. This means that we can use it on Windows, macOS, and of course Linux. Quite useful to improve possible migrations between operating systems. If you come from Windows, you can also use this application.

With DbGate you can easily:

• Connect to multiple databases, directly or through SSH tunnel. Important in terms of security.
• Browse or edit data in your tables or views, filter by column value. This using a data editor.
• Edit SQL queries with auto-complete suggestions or use query designer.
• Export and import from/to CSV, JSON, or Excel.
• Connect to MongoDB, browse or filter JSON document data.

In addition to this, you can further extend the functionality of the program by adding plugins.

Install DbGate on Linux

In the Linux chaos, we have several options depending on the system you are using. In the case of Debian, Ubuntu and derivatives there is a DEB package that can be downloaded from Github or using the terminal.

wget -c https://github.com/dbgate/dbgate/releases/download/v4.2.0/dbgate-latest.deb

And then install it, using APT.

sudo apt install ./dbgate-latest.deb

Then you can run it from the main menu.

There are also other formats like APPImage that you can run from any other Linux distribution or use the binaries.

Conclusion

Having professional tools for database management is a serious matter that requires some preliminary research. At the moment, DbGate has all the basic features to make it a solid alternative to others on the market. Being OpenSource and including Linux support, it generates more exceptions and is an option to take into account.

Enjoy it!

The post DbGate: The Smartest (no)SQL Database Client appeared first on Linux Windows and android Tutorials.

When we connect to a database, we have to do it in the most secure way there is. Everything helps but especially SSL certificates. These can be obtained from tools like Let’s Encrypt or created by the server itself. In any case, this guarantees that all the data that the applications obtain or send to the database are protected.

Let’s start

Note for this post we will use the root account. In case it is not available you can use these commands with sudo. The result will be the same.

Install MariaDB on Linux

Of course, the first step we have to do is to install MariaDB on a server. To do this, check some of our posts

How to install MariaDB on Debian 10?

How to install MariaDB on Ubuntu 20.04?

Or How to install MariaDB on CentOS 8?

After that, you can continue.

Configure MariaDB with SSL

The first step is to create the directory where we will store the certificates that we will create later,

cd /etc/mysql
mkdir ssl
cd ssl

Now create a new CA key:

openssl genrsa 4096 > ca-key.pem

Now create the certificate

openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -days 365000 -key ca-key.pem -out ca-cert.pem
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.
-----
Country Name (2 letter code) [AU]:FL
State or Province Name (full name) [Some-State]:
Locality Name (eg, city) []:City
Organization Name (eg, company) [Internet Widgits Pty Ltd]:
Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []:IT
Common Name (e.g. server FQDN or YOUR name) []:osradar-common
Email Address []:

On the output screen, you will have to answer some questions. Reply according to your case.

Creating the SSL Certificates

Now we can create the certificate for the server, this can be done by running the following command:

openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -days 365000 -nodes -keyout server-key.pem -out server-req.pem
Ignoring -days; not generating a certificate

Generating a RSA private key
...............................................................................+++++
.....+++++
writing new private key to 'server-key.pem'
-----
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.
-----
Country Name (2 letter code) [AU]:
State or Province Name (full name) [Some-State]:
Locality Name (eg, city) []:city
Organization Name (eg, company) [Internet Widgits Pty Ltd]:
Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []:IT
Common Name (e.g. server FQDN or YOUR name) []:osradar-server
Email Address []:

Please enter the following 'extra' attributes
to be sent with your certificate request
A challenge password []:angelo
An optional company name []:osradar-server

There you will have to fill in the data again as in the previous step. The important thing here is that the Common Name cannot be the same.

Now process the new certificate:

openssl rsa -in server-key.pem -out server-key.pem
writing RSA key

Then sign the certificate:

openssl x509 -req -in server-req.pem -days 365000 -CA ca-cert.pem -CAkey ca-key.pem -set_serial 01 -out server-cert.pem
Signature ok
subject=C = AU, ST = Some-State, L = city, O = Internet Widgits Pty Ltd, OU = IT, CN = osradar
Getting CA Private Key

Create the Client Certificate

Now we have created the certificate for the server, but we have to do the same for the client.

To do this run:

openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -days 365000 -nodes -keyout client-key.pem -out client-req.pem

Again, you will have to fill in some data but Common Name has to be different.

Process the key:

openssl rsa -in client-key.pem -out client-key.pem

And sign the certificate:

openssl x509 -req -in client-req.pem -days 365000 -CA ca-cert.pem -CAkey ca-key.pem -set_serial 01 -out client-cert.pem

Adding the certificates to the MariaDB server

With the certificates already created, you need to configure MariaDB with them.

So, open the MariaDB configuration file

nano /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf

And add the following lines:

ssl-ca=/etc/mysql/ssl/ca-cert.pem
ssl-cert=/etc/mysql/ssl/server-cert.pem
ssl-key=/etc/mysql/ssl/server-key.pem

Save the changes and close the editor.

Then assign special permissions to the folder where the certificates are. This is so that no intruder can modify them or breach them.

chown -R mysql:root /etc/mysql/ssl/

Apply all changes by restarting the service.

sudo systemctl restart mariadb

Configuring the clients

Before doing any configuration you have to copy /etc/mysql/ssl/ca-cert.pem, /etc/mysql/ssl/client-cert.pem, and /etc/mysql/ssl/client-key.pem to each of the clients that are going to connect to MariaDB.

Once everyone has the certificate added, configure MariaDB to use them:

nano /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-mysql-clients.cnf

And add the following lines:

ssl-ca=/etc/mysql/ssl/ca-cert.pem
ssl-cert=/etc/mysql/ssl/client-cert.pem
ssl-key=/etc/mysql/ssl/client-key.pem

Save the changes and close the editor.

Now restart the service:

sudo systemctl restart mysql

Creating a new user for MariaDB

The configuration is ready, but now you have to force the users to use SSL. To do this create a new user with the REQUIRE SSL clause.

GRANT ALL ON sampledatabase.* TO me@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password' REQUIRE SSL;

This way this user will have to use SSL.

Conclusion

The security in the transmission of data to MariaDB is something fundamental and that we should not neglect. That is why you have learned today how to do it and you have to implement it.

A private Cloud with Nextcloud

There are many data storage services in clouds. Technological giants like Apple, Google, and Microsoft have them. However, there are people or companies that want to have absolute control over their own data. Nextcloud is there for that.

Nextcloud is an open-source web application that allows us to create our own private cloud. It was created with the primary objective that it is the user who has absolute control of the files.

Many companies install Nextcloud on their servers to create their private clouds. This way they can rely on their own data management. It is even of great help in educational or personal projects.

Install Nextcloud (LEMP) on Ubuntu

1.- Install LEMP on Ubuntu 20.04

Apache is a fantastic web server and nobody can deny that. However, Nginx is well known for its great performance in high traffic situations. That’s why it’s a favorite of many sysadmins that require a lightweight and efficient server.

So, open a terminal or connect to your server and update the distribution

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Now install Nginx, along with all the PHP modules, MariaDB and some extra packages we’ll need to run:

sudo apt install nginx php7.4-common php7.4-mysql php7.4-fpm php7.4-gd php7.4-json php7.4-curl php7.4-zip php7.4-xml php7.4-mbstring php7.4-bz2 php7.4-intl php7.4-bcmath php7.4-gmp php-imagick mariadb-server unzip

Then start the php-fpm service

sudo systemctl start php7.4-fpm

And then it increases the maximum size of the uploaded files:

sudo nano /etc/php/7.4/fpm/php.ini

And it changes the value

upload_max_filesize = 2M

Set the value that you prefer, in this example, I will place 512M

upload_max_filesize = 512M

Save the changes and close the editor.

Now configure MariaDB with the mysql_secure_installation script

sudo mysql_secure_installation

And there you can define the root password and secure the installation of MariaDB

Remove anonymous users? [Y/n]
Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n]
Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n]
Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n]

Now create the database as well as the user who will use Nextcloud:

sudo mysql -u root -p

CREATE DATABASE nextcloud;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON nextcloud.* TO 'nextclouduser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'nextcloudpss';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit;

Now we can start the installation.

2.- Download Nextcloud

Now if you can download Nextcloud, you can use the wget command

cd /tmp/
wget -c https://download.nextcloud.com/server/releases/nextcloud-20.0.4.zip
--2021-01-11 16:11:32--  https://download.nextcloud.com/server/releases/nextcloud-20.0.4.zip

After that, unzip it in the Nginx root directory:

sudo unzip nextcloud-20.0.4.zip -d /var/www/html/

Change the owner of the folder:

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

Now create a new ServerBlock with the following guidelines that will facilitate the documentation of Nextcloud:

server {
     listen 80;
     listen [::]:80;
     server_name angtest.ga;

Remember to change the ServerName values to your own. Save the changes and close the editor

Check the Nginx configuration to make sure everything is fine:

sudo nginx -t

Output:

nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful

And now you have to get a certificate for your domain. This is quite simple thanks to Certbot.

sudo apt install certbot python3-certbot-nginx

Then you can start the process:

sudo certbot --nginx --agree-tos --redirect --hsts --staple-ocsp --email you@example.com -d angtest.ga

Replace the email and domain values with your own.

At the end of the process, apply the changes by restarting nginx.

sudo systemctl reload nginx

3.- Install Nextcloud

Now open your web browser and go to https://your-domain and you will see the following screen

There you will have to create the administrator user and configure the database parameters below.

You can also change the path where the data is stored, but you have to create the folder on your server.

When you are ready, Nextcloud will be ready for you.

So, enjoy it.

Conclusion

Nextcloud is a very useful tool for small and medium businesses that want to create a private cloud quickly and secure.

MariaDB is a well-known archi Database Relationships Management System that is a MySQL fork. This is due to the purchase of Sun Mycrosystem by Oracle. It is perfectly compatible with MySQL and is available in most Linux distributions.

In Debian 10 the version of MariaDB that is available in the official repositories is 10.3 but recently has seen the release of version 10.5 with some interesting new features.

So, if you want to take advantage of having a recent version of this database manager, then welcome.

Install MariaDB 10.5 on Debian 10

For recent versions of MariaDB on Debian 10, we can use the repository provided by the developers.

These repositories have many mirrors around the world, I will use one that is in New York that should work well anywhere.

So, open a terminal and install the necessary packages to add the repository.

sudo apt-get install software-properties-common dirmngr

After you have done this, add the GPG key to it

sudo apt-key adv --fetch-keys 'https://mariadb.org/mariadb_release_signing_key.asc'
Executing: /tmp/apt-key-gpghome.WyUWC7PYTX/gpg.1.sh --fetch-keys https://mariadb.org/mariadb_release_signing_key.asc
 gpg: requesting key from 'https://mariadb.org/mariadb_release_signing_key.asc'
 gpg: key F1656F24C74CD1D8: public key "MariaDB Signing Key signing-key@mariadb.org" imported
 gpg: Total number processed: 1
 gpg:               imported: 1

Now yes, add the repository in question.

sudo add-apt-repository 'deb [arch=amd64,arm64,ppc64el] http://nyc2.mirrors.digitalocean.com/mariadb/repo/10.5/debian buster main'

And refreshes APT

sudo apt update

And finally, it carries out the installation

sudo apt install mariadb-server

PHPMyAdmin is an open-source application created in PHP that provides the administration of a MySQL or MariaDB database from a comfortable web interface. It is simply installed on the server, we make a few small configurations and that’s it. That’s it. Without consuming many resources you will have a quality application.

So, let’s get started.

Install the latest PHPMyAdmin on CentOS 8

Despite being one of the most popular tools available for the administration of MariaDB / MySQL it is not in the CentOS 8 repositories. However, it is possible to get the latest version thanks to the REMI repository.

So, let’s go for it.

Note: All the commands will be performed as the root user. In case your user has sudo access, you can use it before executing each command.

Open a terminal and add the EPEL repository.

dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm

After it is added, the REMI repository must be added.

dnf install https://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-8.rpm

Now the next step is to disable the PHP 7.2 module which is the default in the CentOS 8 installation

dnf module reset php:7.2

And now enable the PHP 7.4 module of the REMI module.

dnf module enable php:remi-7.4

The next steps are to set up LAMP or LEMP on CentOS 8. This is up to you and the server you will be using.

For this example, I will install Apache.

dnf install httpd php-session php-json php-hash php-ctype php-mbstring php-zip php-gd php-curl php-openssl php-xml mariadb-server

And finally, it installs PHPMyAdmin

dnf --enablerepo=remi install phpMyAdmin

For PHPMyAdmin to run with Apache it is necessary to make a small change in the configuration file

nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpMyAdmin.conf

And in the section leave it this way:

<Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin>
    AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
    Require all granted
</Directory>

Save the changes and close the editor.

To apply the changes in Apache, just restart the service

sudo systemctl restart httpd

Then, open a web browser and go to http://your-server/phpmyadmin and you will see the following screen:

So, enjoy it.

InoERP is a web application created with PHP that supports several web servers such as Apache or Nginx. It belongs to the type of ERP (Enterprise resource planning) ie it is a purely business application that helps with the planning of activities and resources of a company.

As a general rule, you have that any organization must have efficient planning to achieve its objectives. This is also the objective of inoERP. InoERP covers many fields within the organization, from human resources to e-commerce related tasks.

With too this is easy to deduce that we are in the presence of a very valuable and powerful application for our organization.

So, let’s get to work.

Install inoERP on  Ubuntu 20.04 / Debian 10

1) Install LAMP on Ubuntu 20.04

Since this is a web application, it is necessary that our team has a fully functional LAMP server. That’s the first step.

So, read

How to install LAMP on Ubuntu 20.04?

Also, install these Modules:

php7.4 libapache2-mod-php7.4 php7.4-common php7.4-mysql php7.4-gmp php7.4-curl php7.4-intl php7.4-mbstring php7.4-xmlrpc php7.4-gd php7.4-bcmath php7.4-xml php7.4-cli php7.4-zip

And you can continue.

1.1) Install LAMP on Debian 10

If you are using Debian 10 then read:

How to install LAMP on Debian 10?

However, it is also necessary to install these PHP modules, so that the program runs correctly.

php7.3 libapache2-mod-php7.3 php7.3-common php7.3-mysql php7.3-gmp php7.3-curl php7.3-intl php7.3-mbstring php7.3-xmlrpc php7.3-gd php7.3-bcmath php7.3-xml php7.3-cli php7.3-zip

Make sure you install them.

2) Create a new database for inoERP

inoERP processes a lot of data. To do this efficiently, the application requires a relational database management system such as MySQL or MariaDB. But in turn, you have to create a database that will use inoERP. And as a security measure, create a dedicated user. Let’s go for it.

Open the MariaDB terminal and start running these commands to create the database and the new user. In turn, give permissions to this new user to use the newly created database.

:~$ sudo mysql -u root -p
> CREATE DATABASE inoerp;
> CREATE USER 'inoerpuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'inoerppss';
> GRANT ALL ON inoerp.* TO 'inoerpuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'inoerppss' WITH GRANT OPTION;
> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
> exit;

Now we can continue.

3) Download and Install inoERP (I)

Now it is time to download and install inoERP. To do this, we will download it using Git. Then you have to install it.

How to install git on Ubuntu 20.04?

Now, just start cloning the source code.

:~$ cd /var/www/html
:~$ sudo git clone https://github.com/inoerp/inoerp.git

Next, create a new virtual host for inoERP.

<VirtualHost *:80>
     ServerAdmin admin@osradar.test
     DocumentRoot /var/www/html/inoerp/inoerp/www
     ServerName inoerp.osradar.test
     ServerAlias www.inoerp.osradar.test

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

     ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
     CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
    
     <Directory /var/www/html/inoERP/inoerp/www/>
            RewriteEngine on
            RewriteBase /
            RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
            RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php [PT,L]
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

It must now be enabled for the change to take effect.

:~$ sudo a2ensite inoerp.conf
:~$ sudo a2enmod rewrite
:~$ sudo systemctl restart apache2

Now, we need to complete the installation using the web browser.

4) Install inoERP using the web interface

It is now necessary to complete the installation. Open your web browser and go to your server. You will see the following:

After clicking on the continue button, you will have to enter the MariaDB credentials corresponding to inoERP.

After this, the installation will begin. When you finish at the bottom, you will see a link to go to the home page.

At the top right, you will see the login button. Click on it and enter your credentials. User: inoerp Password: inoerp. After that, you will see the dashboard.

So, start to work with this.

Conclusion

inoERP is a vital application for a small, medium or large organization. Thanks to this kind of software you can plan and manage resources and activities in an organization. Installing on Ubuntu 20.04 / Debian 10 is not a problem and gives a lot of results.
