ONLYOFFICE is a web-based open-source office suite that allows users to create, edit and collaborate on documents, spreadsheets, and presentations. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing ONLYOFFICE on Elementary OS, the latest version.
Before you can start the installation process, you need to ensure that you have the following requirements:
To install ONLYOFFICE on Elementary OS, you must first ensure that all the required dependencies are installed. Execute the following command in your terminal to install the dependencies:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y curl wget gnupg2 ca-certificates lsb-release
After installing all the required dependencies, you need to add the ONLYOFFICE repository to your system. Execute the following command in your terminal to add the repository:
sudo echo "deb http://download.onlyoffice.com/repo/debian squeeze main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/onlyoffice.list
The above command will add the ONLYOFFICE repository to your system.
Now that you have added the ONLYOFFICE repository to your system, you need to add the repository's GPG key. Execute the following command in your terminal to add the key:
sudo wget http://download.onlyoffice.com/repo/onlyoffice.key
sudo apt-key add onlyoffice.key
After adding the ONLYOFFICE repository and GPG key, you need to update your system's repository by running the following command in your terminal:
sudo apt-get update
After updating the repository, you are now ready to install ONLYOFFICE. Execute the following command in your terminal to install ONLYOFFICE:
sudo apt-get install onlyoffice-server
After successfully installing ONLYOFFICE, you need to configure it by running the following command in your terminal:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure onlyoffice-server
Follow the prompts to configure ONLYOFFICE.
After configuration, you can now start ONLYOFFICE by running the following command in your terminal:

If you want ONLYOFFICE to start automatically at system startup, run the following command:
