In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Fusion Directory on the latest Alpine Linux version.
Before starting the installation process, you must ensure that the following prerequisites are met:
To install Fusion Directory on Alpine Linux, we must first add the Fusion Directory repository to the system. Run the following command to add the Fusion Directory repository:
echo http://repos.fusiondirectory.org/fusiondirectory-current/alpine/latest/main > /etc/apk/repositories.d/fusiondirectory.repo
After running this command, update the package list:
apk update
Now that we have added the Fusion Directory repository to the system, we can install the required packages. Run the following command to install the necessary packages:
apk add openldap openldap-back-mdb php7 php7-ldap php7-zip php7-gettext php7-gmp php7-session php7-pdo_sqlite php7-pdo_mysql php7-curl php7-gd php7-json php7-fileinfo python python-ldap python3 python3-ldap python3-lxml
After we have installed the required packages, we can now install Fusion Directory itself. Run the following command to install Fusion Directory:
apk add fusiondirectory
By default, Fusion Directory does not start automatically. To start Fusion Directory, follow these steps:
Run the following command to enable Fusion Directory at boot:
rc-update add fusiondirectory
Run the following command to start Fusion Directory:
rc-service fusiondirectory start
Follow the instructions displayed on the screen to configure Fusion Directory.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Fusion Directory on Alpine Linux. You can now start using Fusion Directory to manage your LDAP directory.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
