myTinyTodo is a handy online to-do list and task management software that you can use to manage your busy schedule. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps of installing myTinyTodo on Debian Latest.
Before proceeding with the installation process, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
To begin, download the myTinyTodo package from the official website at mytinytodo.net.
$ wget https://github.com/maxpozdeev/mytinytodo/archive/master.zip
Once the package is downloaded, extract it to the /var/www/html directory by running the following command:
$ sudo unzip master.zip -d /var/www/html/
Then, rename the extracted directory to mytinytodo, and make sure that the Apache user can write to the directory by running these commands:
$ sudo mv /var/www/html/mytinytodo-master /var/www/html/mytinytodo
$ sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/mytinytodo
Next, create a new MySQL or MariaDB database and user for myTinyTodo. You can do this by running the following commands:
$ sudo mysql -u root -p
Once you are logged in to the MySQL shell, create a new database and user with the following commands:
mysql> CREATE DATABASE mytinytodo;
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON mytinytodo.* TO 'mytinytodo_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'mytinytodo_password';
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
mysql> quit;
To configure Apache for myTinyTodo, create a new virtual host configuration file by running the following command:
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/mytinytodo.conf
Then, paste the following configuration:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin@mytinytodo.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/mytinytodo
ServerName mytinytodo.example.com
<Directory "/var/www/html/mytinytodo">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Make sure to adjust the ServerName directive to your own domain or IP address.
Save and close the file, and then enable the virtual host configuration by running the following command:
$ sudo a2ensite mytinytodo.conf
Restart Apache to apply the changes:
$ sudo systemctl restart apache2
Finally, complete the myTinyTodo installation by opening your web browser and accessing the following URL:
http://mytinytodo.example.com/install.php
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation. When prompted, enter the database name, user, and password that you created earlier.
Once the installation is complete, remove the install.php file by running the following command:
$ sudo rm /var/www/html/mytinytodo/install.php
You can now access myTinyTodo by opening your web browser and navigating to the following URL:
http://mytinytodo.example.com
Congratulations! You have successfully installed myTinyTodo on Debian Latest.
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!
