How to Install Tuleap on Elementary OS

Tuleap is a powerful and flexible project management tool that helps teams to collaborate on software development projects. In this tutorial, we will walk through the process of installing Tuleap on Elementary OS, the popular Linux operating system.

Prerequisites

Step 1: Update the System

Before installing Tuleap, it is recommended to update the system to the latest version.

To do this, we can use the following command:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

Step 2: Install the Dependencies

Tuleap has some dependencies that must be installed before proceeding.

For Ubuntu 20.04 and above, we need to add the following repositories:

sudo apt -y install apt-transport-https lsb-release software-properties-common wget ca-certificates gnupg2
wget -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/openproject.asc https://dl.packager.io/srv/opf/openproject/key
echo "deb https://dl.packager.io/srv/opf/openproject/stable/10/ubuntu/ $(lsb_release -cs) main"|sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/openproject.list
sudo apt-get update

Once the repositories are added, we can install the dependencies using the following command:

sudo apt -y install curl git vim wget zip unzip gcc make

Step 3: Install Tuleap

We can install Tuleap by following these instructions:

sudo apt-get install tuleap-all

During the installation process, we will be asked to set up the MySQL root user password and the Tuleap admin password.

After the installation is complete, we can verify that Tuleap is running by visiting the following URL from our web browser:

https://SERVER-IP/tuleap/

Replace SERVER-IP with the IP address of your server.

Step 4: Configure Tuleap

Once Tuleap is installed, we need to configure it to work with our system.

We can configure Tuleap by following these instructions:

  1. Navigate to https://SERVER-IP/tuleap/admin/.
  2. Log in with your admin credentials.
  3. Follow the on-screen instructions to configure Tuleap.

Once Tuleap is properly configured, we can start using it to manage our projects.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we walked through the process of installing Tuleap on Elementary OS. Now that Tuleap is installed, we can start using it to manage our software development projects.

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!
