Passbolt is a free and open-source password manager that gives you complete control of your passwords. It is designed for teams and organizations to store and share their passwords securely. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the steps to install Passbolt on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
Before installing any software on your EndeavourOS system, it's important to make sure that your system is up to date. To do this, open a terminal window and run the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
Enter your password when prompted and wait for the system to update.
Passbolt requires the following dependencies to be installed on your system:
To install these, run the following command:
sudo pacman -S mariadb php php-apache apache gnupg
Wait for the installation to complete.
Passbolt requires a database to store its data. We'll use MariaDB for this. To install MariaDB, run the following command:
sudo pacman -S mariadb
Once installed, you'll need to start the MariaDB service and enable it to start automatically at boot. To do this, run the following commands:
sudo systemctl start mariadb
sudo systemctl enable mariadb
Next, you need to secure the MariaDB installation. Run the following command and answer the questions when prompted:
sudo mysql_secure_installation
Create a new database, a new user, and grant the user all privileges to access the database. Run the following commands to do this:
sudo mysql -u root -p
Enter the MariaDB root password that you set during the installation. Then, run the following commands to create the database and the user:
CREATE DATABASE passbolt;
CREATE USER 'passbolt_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON passbolt.* TO 'passbolt_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Replace "password" with a strong password of your choice.
To download Passbolt, run the following command:
sudo pacman -S passbolt
Wait for the installation to complete.
Passbolt configuration files are located at /etc/webapps/passbolt. Open the passbolt.php file for editing:
sudo nano /etc/webapps/passbolt/passbolt.php
Update the following lines with the database credentials that you created in Step 3:
/**
* Database
*/
define('DATASOURCES_DEFAULT_HOST', 'localhost');
define('DATASOURCES_DEFAULT_USERNAME', 'passbolt_user');
define('DATASOURCES_DEFAULT_PASSWORD', 'password');
define('DATASOURCES_DEFAULT_DATABASE', 'passbolt');
define('DATASOURCES_DEFAULT_PREFIX', '');
Save the changes and exit the editor.
Next, run the following command to initialize the Passbolt database:
sudo -u http /usr/share/webapps/passbolt/bin/cake migrations migrate
Finally, restart the Apache service to apply the changes:
sudo systemctl restart httpd
Open your preferred web browser and point it to http://localhost/passbolt. You should see the Passbolt login page.
To log in, use the following default credentials:
admin@passbolt.compasswordAfter logging in, you should see the Passbolt dashboard. Congratulations! You have successfully installed Passbolt on EndeavourOS Latest.
