ZenTao is a popular open-source project management tool that helps software development teams to manage their projects in a more efficient manner. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install ZenTao on EndeavourOS latest.
First, open the terminal on your EndeavourOS system and update the package list using the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
Once the update is complete, install the required packages using the pacman package manager:
sudo pacman -S wget php php-gd php-fpm php-mysql mariadb
Next, we need to configure MariaDB to store the ZenTao data. To do this, start by logging in to the MariaDB shell:
sudo mysql -u root -p
Enter your root password and create a new database for ZenTao using the following command:
CREATE DATABASE zentao;
Create a new user and grant them all privileges on the zentao database using the following commands:
CREATE USER 'zentao'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'your-password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `zentao`.* TO 'zentao'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Exit the MariaDB shell using the following command:
exit
Next, we need to download the latest version of ZenTao from the official website using the following command:
wget https://sourceforge.net/projects/zentao/files/latest/download -O zentao.tar.gz
Extract the downloaded archive using the following command:
tar -xvf zentao.tar.gz
Move the extracted directory to the /var/www/html directory using the following command:
sudo mv zentao* /var/www/html/zentao
Next, we need to configure the ZenTao database settings. To do this, navigate to the zentao directory using the following command:
cd /var/www/html/zentao
Copy the config/my.php.sample configuration file to config/my.php using the following command:
sudo cp config/my.php.sample config/my.php
Edit the config/my.php file using a text editor of your choice:
sudo nano config/my.php
Update the following lines with the database configuration details:
$dbtype = 'mysqli';
$host = 'localhost';
$dbName = 'zentao';
$user = 'zentao';
$password = 'your-password';
Save and exit the file.
Next, we need to configure PHP-FPM to work with Apache. To do this, create a new configuration file using the following command:
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/extra/php-fpm.conf
Add the following content to the file:
<FilesMatch \.php$>
SetHandler "proxy:unix:/var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock|fcgi://localhost"
</FilesMatch>
Save and exit the file.
Restart the Apache and PHP-FPM services using the following commands:
sudo systemctl restart httpd
sudo systemctl restart php-fpm
Finally, we can access ZenTao by navigating to the following URL in your web browser:
http://your-server-ip/zentao/www/
Replace your-server-ip with the IP address of your EndeavourOS system.
You should see the ZenTao login page. Use the default credentials to log in:
You can now start using ZenTao to manage your software development projects.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed ZenTao on EndeavourOS Latest.
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!
