ResourceSpace is an open-source digital asset management system that allows you to manage and organize your digital assets such as photos, videos, and documents. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install ResourceSpace on Fedora Server Latest.
Before we begin, ensure that your system meets the following requirements:
Before we start installing ResourceSpace, we need to install some required packages on our Fedora Server Latest system. Open the terminal and run the following command to update the package manager:
sudo dnf update
Once the update is complete, run the following command to install the required packages:
sudo dnf install apache mariadb-server php php-gd php-mysqlnd php-xml php-intl php-mbstring wget unzip
The above command will install all the required packages that ResourceSpace needs.
ResourceSpace requires a database to store its data. In this step, we will configure the database for ResourceSpace. Run the following command to start the MariaDB server:
sudo systemctl start mariadb
Once the server starts, run the following command to secure the database:
sudo mysql_secure_installation
Answer the question that follows and then set a password for the root user. Once the setup is complete, create a new database and user for ResourceSpace by running the following commands:
sudo mysql -u root -p
MariaDB> CREATE DATABASE resourcespace;
MariaDB> CREATE USER 'resourcespace'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password';
MariaDB> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON resourcespace.* TO 'resourcespace'@'localhost';
MariaDB> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
MariaDB> EXIT;
Replace password with your desired password for the resourcespace user.
In this step, we will download and install ResourceSpace onto our Fedora Server Latest system. Run the following commands to download and extract the latest version of ResourceSpace:
cd /var/www/html
sudo wget https://www.resourcespace.com/get/ -O resourcespace.zip
sudo unzip resourcespace.zip
sudo mv resourcepace-* resourcespace
sudo chown -R apache:apache resourcespace
The above commands will download and extract the latest version of ResourceSpace into the /var/www/html/resourcespace directory.
In this step, we will configure ResourceSpace so that it works smoothly on our Fedora Server Latest system. Run the following command to open the config.php file:
sudo nano /var/www/html/resourcespace/include/config.php
Find the following lines and make the changes as shown below:
$mysql_server ="localhost";
$mysql_port ="3306";
$mysql_username ="resourcespace";
$mysql_password ="password";
$mysql_database ="resourcespace";
Replace password with the password that you set in Step 2.
Save and close the file by pressing Ctrl+X, then Y, and then Enter.
In this step, we will configure Apache to serve ResourceSpace. Run the following command to create a new Virtual Host for ResourceSpace:
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/resourcespace.conf
Paste the following lines into the file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/resourcespace
<Directory /var/www/html/resourcespace>
Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Replace example.com with your domain name or IP address.
Save and close the file by pressing Ctrl+X, then Y, and then Enter.
Restart Apache by running the following command:
sudo systemctl restart httpd
You have successfully installed and configured ResourceSpace on Fedora Server Latest. Now, open your web browser and navigate to http://example.com or http://your-server-ip-address. You will see the ResourceSpace login page. Use the default username admin and password admin to log in. After logging in, you can change the password and start uploading your assets.
Conclusion
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install ResourceSpace on Fedora Server Latest. Once installed, you can store, manage, and organize your digital assets efficiently.
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!
