Teampass is a web-based password manager designed to help teams securely store passwords and other sensitive information. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Teampass on Elementary OS Latest.
Before we begin, you will need the following:
Open the terminal and update the package list by running the following command:
sudo apt update
Next, install the necessary packages by running the following command:
sudo apt install git unzip
Download the latest version of Teampass from the official website (https://teampass.net/). Once the download is complete, extract the contents to the root directory of your Apache web server, which is /var/www/html by default.
sudo unzip teampass_latest_version.zip -d /var/www/html/
To ensure that Teampass can read and write files correctly within the /var/www/html/teampass/ directory, we need to set ownership for the Apache user:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/teampass/
Create a new MySQL/MariaDB database and user for Teampass:
CREATE DATABASE teampass;
CREATE USER 'teampassuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON teampass.* TO 'teampassuser'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Replace the database name, username, and password with your desired values.
In the web browser, navigate to http://localhost/teampass/config/install/install.php, and follow the installation wizard to configure Teampass.
During installation, enter the MySQL/MariaDB database details you created in step 4.
Once Teampass is installed successfully, delete the /install/ directory via the command:
sudo rm -rf /var/www/html/teampass/install/
Congratulations, you have successfully installed Teampass on Elementary OS Latest. You can now use Teampass to securely store passwords and other sensitive information for your team.
