How to Install sysPass on Fedora CoreOS Latest?

sysPass is a secure password manager that lets you store and organize your passwords, web credentials, and other sensitive data. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps to install sysPass on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS.

Prerequisites

Before you begin with this tutorial, make sure you have the following prerequisites:

• A running instance of Fedora CoreOS Latest
• Root or superuser access to your Fedora CoreOS instance
• Access to the internet

Step 1: Install Dependencies

The first step is to install the required dependencies for sysPass. To do this, enter the following command:

sudo dnf install -y nginx php-fpm php-common php-mysqlnd php-intl php-pecl-imagick php-opcache php-cli php-xml php-gd php-mbstring php-pdo

Step 2: Download sysPass

Next, download the sysPass archive from the official website using the following command:

wget https://github.com/nuxsmin/sysPass/archive/master.zip

Step 3: Extract sysPass and Move Files

Extract the downloaded archive using the following command:

unzip master.zip

Move the extracted files to the web directory using the following command:

sudo rsync -av sysPass-master /usr/share/nginx/

Step 4: Configure Nginx

Now, configure Nginx to serve requests to the sysPass application. To do this, create a new Nginx configuration file using the following command:

sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/syspass.conf 

Paste the following configuration in the file:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name your-domain.com;
    root /usr/share/nginx/sysPass-master;
    index index.php;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php-fpm/www.sock;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;
        fastcgi_param PHP_VALUE "upload_max_filesize = 100M \n post_max_size= 100M";
    }

    location ~* \.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|css|js|ico)$ {
        expires max;
        log_not_found off;
        access_log off;
    }
}

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

Save and close the file.

Reload Nginx for the changes to take effect using the following command:

sudo systemctl reload nginx

Step 5: Create sysPass Configuration File

Now, create a new configuration file for sysPass using the following command:

sudo nano /usr/share/nginx/sysPass-master/system/config/config-user.inc.php 

Paste the following configuration in the file:

<?php
$config = array (
  'instance_name' => 'sysPass',
  'admin_user' => 'admin',
  'admin_pass' => 'password',
  'admin_email' => 'admin@example.com',
  'user_restriction' => '^[a-zA-Z0-9-_]+$',
  'email_restriction' => '/^[^@\s]+@[^@\s]+\.[^@\s]+$/',
  'apikey_length' => '32',
  'user_salt' => 'ChangeMe',
  'ldap_active' => false,
  'ldap_server' => '',
  'ldap_port' => '',
  'ldap_starttls' => false,
  'ldap_binddn' => '',
  'ldap_bindpassword' => '',
  'ldap_dn' => '',
  'ldap_firstname' => 'givenName',
  'ldap_lastname' => 'sn',
  'ldap_email' => 'mail',
  'ldap_groups' => 'memberOf',
  'smtp_active' => false,
  'smtp_server' => 'localhost',
  'smtp_port' => '25',
  'smtp_from' => 'syspass@example.com',
  'smtp_auth' => false,
  'smtp_user' => '',
  'smtp_password' => '',
  'recaptcha_active' => false,
  'recaptcha_sitekey' => '',
  'recaptcha_secretkey' => '',
  'shortcuts' => 
  array (
    'show' => 'true',
    'generate' => 'true',
    'history' => 'true',
    'import' => 'true',
    'export' => 'true',
    'api' => 'true',
    'ldap-link' => 'false',
    'delete' => 'false',
    'edit' => 'false',
    'favorites' => 'false',
    'add-direct' => 'false',
    'checkout' => 'false',
    'checkin' => 'false',
    'add-password' => 'false',
    'add-note' => 'false',
    'add-username' => 'false',
    'add-url' => 'false',
    'add-email' => 'false',
    'add-creditcard' => 'false',
    'add-ssn' => 'false',
  ),
);
?>

Save and close the file.

Step 6: Set Permissions

Set the necessary permissions on the sysPass files using the following commands:

sudo chown -R nginx:nginx /usr/share/nginx/sysPass-master/
sudo chmod -R 755 /usr/share/nginx/sysPass-master/

Step 7: Access sysPass

Open your web browser and visit the URL http://your-domain.com . You will be redirected to the sysPass login page. Enter the username and password specified in the configuration file in step 5 to access your sysPass account.
