SOGo (Scalable OpenGroupware.org) is a free and open-source groupware platform that allows you to manage email, contacts, and calendars using a web-based interface. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install SOGo on a Fedora Server latest.
Before you start, make sure you have the following:
SOGo requires some packages that are not available in the default Fedora repositories. We will install the EPEL repository to get these packages. Run the following command to install EPEL repo:
dnf install epel-release
Once installed, update the packages index:
dnf update
Now that we have EPEL installed, we can proceed with the SOGo installation. Run the following command to install SOGo:
dnf install sogo
During the installation, you may be prompted to import GPG key for the SOGo repository. Enter 'Y' to continue.
After the installation is complete, we need to configure SOGo. The configuration files are located in the /etc/sogo directory. We will use the sogo.conf file to configure SOGo.
Open the sogo.conf file using your favorite text editor:
nano /etc/sogo/sogo.conf
In this file, you will see various configuration options. We will modify the following options:
/* SOGo-specific settings */
/* Name of your domain (used in SOGo login) */
SOGoMailDomain = example.com;
/* URL of your webmail */
SOGoPageTitle = "Example Webmail";
SOGoVacationEnabled = YES;
SOGoLanguage = English;
Change the SOGoMailDomain option to your own domain name. If you don't have a domain name, you can use your server's IP address.
Change the SOGoPageTitle option to the title of your webmail. You can change this to anything you want.
Save and close the file.
Now that we have configured SOGo, we can start the service. Run the following command to start SOGo:
systemctl start sogo
You can also set SOGo to start automatically at boot time:
systemctl enable sogo
SOGo is now up and running on your server. You can access the SOGo web interface by opening your favorite web browser and navigating to:
https://<your_domain_or_IP>/SOGo/
Replace <your_domain_or_IP> with your domain name or server IP address.
You will be prompted to enter your email address and password. Enter the email address and password of a user who has been granted access to SOGo.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed SOGo on your Fedora Server latest!
