How to Install ArchivesSpace on Kali Linux Latest?

ArchivesSpace is an open-source web application designed for managing archives and manuscript collections. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install ArchivesSpace on Kali Linux Latest.

Prerequisites

Step 1: Install Java

ArchivesSpace is built on Java, so the first step is to install Java. Open the terminal and use the command below to install Java:

$ sudo apt-get install default-jre

Step 2: Install MySQL

ArchivesSpace uses MySQL as its database. Use the command below to install MySQL:

$ sudo apt-get install mysql-server

During the installation process, you will be prompted to create a root password for MySQL.

Step 3: Download and Install ArchivesSpace

To download ArchivesSpace, use the command below:

Once downloaded, extract the archive using the command below:

$ unzip archivesspace-v2.7.1.zip

Move the extracted folder to the /usr/share/ directory:

Step 4: Configure ArchivesSpace

To configure ArchivesSpace, go to the archivesspace/config/ directory and create a copy of the config-template file named config:

$ cp config-template config

Now, in the config file, modify the following lines with mysql as the database:

# Database
AppConfig[:db_url] = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/archivesspace?user=root&password=[password]&useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8&autoReconnectForPools=true&useSSL=false"

# Indexer
AppConfig[:backend_url] = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/archivesspace?user=root&password=[password]&useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8&autoReconnectForPools=true&useSSL=false"

Replace [password] with the MySQL root password you created earlier during installation.
