OpenOlitor is an open-source management system for small-scale farmers. It helps farmers to track their production and increase their productivity. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install OpenOlitor on Fedora Server Latest.
Before you can install OpenOlitor on Fedora Server Latest, you need to make sure that the following prerequisites are met:
Before installing any new software, it is important to update the system to ensure that all the packages are up-to-date. To update the system, run the following commands in your terminal:
sudo dnf check-update
sudo dnf update
OpenOlitor requires an Apache web server to function. Install Apache web server using the following command:
sudo dnf install httpd
After the installation is complete, start the Apache service by running the following command:
sudo systemctl start httpd
To make sure that Apache starts automatically upon boot, run the following command:
sudo systemctl enable httpd
OpenOlitor requires a database server to store its data. We will use MariaDB as our database server. Install MariaDB server using the following command:
sudo dnf install mariadb-server
After the installation is complete, start the MariaDB service by running the following command:
sudo systemctl start mariadb
To make sure that MariaDB starts automatically upon boot, run the following command:
sudo systemctl enable mariadb
In order to use MariaDB, you need to configure it. Run the following command to start the configuration process:
sudo mysql_secure_installation
Follow the on-screen instructions to configure MariaDB. Set a strong password for the root user, and answer “Yes” to all the prompts.
To install OpenOlitor, you need to create a new database and user in MariaDB. Run the following commands to create a new database, user, and grant permissions:
sudo mysql -u root -p
CREATE DATABASE openolitor;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON openolitor.* TO 'openolitor'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'your_password_here';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;
Be sure to replace 'your_password_here' with a strong password.
OpenOlitor requires PHP and several extensions to work. Install PHP and the required extensions using the following command:
sudo dnf install php php-mysqlnd php-xml php-gd php-zip
Download the latest version of OpenOlitor by visiting the official website at https://openolitor.org/. Choose the version that matches your Fedora Server Latest machine and download it to your machine.
Move the OpenOlitor files to the Apache web root directory using the following command:
sudo mv openolitor-x.x.x /var/www/html/openolitor
Be sure to replace 'x.x.x' with the version number of OpenOlitor that you downloaded.
Rename the file "htaccess.dist" to ".htaccess" in the "openolitor" directory. Then edit the "config.php" file found in the "app" directory to include the database settings you created in step 5.
Set permissions on the OpenOlitor directory using the following commands:
sudo chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/openolitor
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/openolitor
Restart the Apache service using the following command:
sudo systemctl restart httpd
You can now access OpenOlitor in a web browser by navigating to http://
