Leantime is an open-source project management tool that allows teams to manage tasks and projects in a collaborative way. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Leantime on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before proceeding with the installation of Leantime, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
Before installing any new software, it is essential to update the system package repository:
sudo pacman -Syu
This command will update the system to the latest packages and dependencies.
Leantime requires several dependencies to function correctly. To install these dependencies, run the following command:
sudo pacman -S apache mariadb php php-apache
This command will install the Apache web server, the MariaDB database server, and PHP with its dependencies.
After installing the MariaDB, we have to configure it to function with Leantime. To do this, follow these steps:
sudo mysql -u root -p
CREATE DATABASE leantime;
This command will create a new database called "leantime".
CREATE USER 'leantimeuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON leantime.* TO 'leantimeuser'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
This command will create a new user named "leantimeuser" with the password "password" and grant all privileges to the "leantime" database. It is recommended to replace the "password" with a strong password to improve the security of the database.
We can now download and install the Leantime software. To do this, follow these steps:
cd /var/www/html
sudo wget https://leantime.io/download/latest -O leantime.zip
sudo unzip leantime.zip -d leantime
sudo chown -R http:http leantime/
This command will download the latest Leantime release, extract it to the /var/www/html/leantime directory, and set the necessary ownership and permissions.
Next, we have to configure Apache to serve Leantime. To do this, we need to create a new Apache virtual host.
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-leantime.conf
And add the following lines:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin@example.com
ServerName example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/leantime
<Directory /var/www/html/leantime>
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/html/leantime/data>
Require all denied
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/leantime_error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/leantime_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
This configuration tells Apache to serve Leantime in the /var/www/html/leantime directory, deny access to the /data directory, and log errors and access to separate files.
After adding this configuration, save and close the file, and restart Apache:
sudo systemctl restart httpd
The final step is to visit the Leantime installation page in a web browser. Open a web browser and go to:
http://server-ip/leantime/install
Follow the on-screen instructions and enter your database details to finish the installation process.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Leantime on EndeavourOS Latest. By following this guide, you can now use Leantime to manage your projects and tasks in an efficient and collaborative way.
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!
