Dolibarr is an open-source enterprise resource planning (ERP) and customer relationship management (CRM) system. It can be used for managing business, customers, and accounting operations. This tutorial will guide you through the steps to install Dolibarr on Fedora CoreOS.

Prerequisites

Before you start the installation process, ensure that you have a few prerequisites:

Step 1- Install Required Packages

The first step is to install the prerequisites required to run Dolibarr on Fedora CoreOS. Open a terminal window on your system and run the following command to install PHP required packages:

sudo dnf install php php-gd php-mbstring php-pear php-fpm php-pgsql php-curl php-intl php-zip postgresql

Step 2 - Create PostgreSQL Database

Now, you need to create a PostgreSQL database for your Dolibarr installation. Run the following command to create a new user and database:

sudo su postgres
createuser dolibarr_user -P
createdb dolibarr -O dolibarr_user
exit

Step 3 - Install Dolibarr

Next, download the latest version of Dolibarr from its official website. To download, run the following command in the terminal:

wget https://download.dolibarr.org/ -O dolibarr-14.0.1.tar.gz

After that, extract the downloaded file using the following command:

tar -xvf dolibarr-14.0.1.tar.gz -C /var/www/html

After extraction, rename the extracted directory using the following command:

sudo mv /var/www/html/dolibarr-14.0.1 /var/www/html/dolibarr

Set proper permissions for Dolibarr directory using the following command:

sudo chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/dolibarr /var/lib/php/session/

Step 4 - Configure Apache Web Server

To configure Apache, create a new configuration file for Dolibarr using the following command:

sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/dolibarr.conf

Then, paste the following content into the file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName your-domain.com
  DocumentRoot /var/www/html/dolibarr/htdocs/
  ErrorLog /var/www/html/dolibarr/logs/error.log
  CustomLog /var/www/html/dolibarr/logs/access.log combined
  <Directory /var/www/html/dolibarr/htdocs/>
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Require all granted
  </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Replace your-domain.com with your own domain or IP address.

Now, restart Apache using the following command:

sudo systemctl restart httpd

Step 5 - Accessing Dolibarr

Open your browser and go to http://your-domain.com/install. You will see the Dolibarr installation wizard. Provide the required information, such as login credentials, database connections, and admin username and password.

After that, click on the 'Install' button and wait for a while. Once the installation is complete, you will see the Dolibarr login page.
