Dalton Plan is a project management tool that helps users and organizations manage their projects and tasks efficiently. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Dalton Plan on Kali Linux Latest.
Before we proceed with the installation process, make sure your system meets the following requirements:
To run Dalton Plan, we need to install Apache and PHP on our system. To do that, run the following command:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install apache2 php libapache2-mod-php
After the installation is complete, start the Apache service by running:
sudo systemctl start apache2
You can check the status of the service by running:
sudo systemctl status apache2
If the service is running, you should see a message indicating that Apache is active.
Dalton Plan requires a database to store its data. We will use MySQL to create our database. To install MySQL, run the following command:
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
During the installation process, you will be prompted to set a password for the root user. Make sure to choose a strong password and remember it.
After the installation is complete, start the MySQL service by running:
sudo systemctl start mysql
You can check the status of the service by running:
sudo systemctl status mysql
If the service is running, you should see a message indicating that MySQL is active.
Next, we will create a database and a user for Dalton Plan. To do that, we need to log in to MySQL as the root user:
sudo mysql -u root -p
Enter the root password that you set during the installation process. Once you are logged in, create a database by running:
CREATE DATABASE daltonplan;
Next, create a user by running:
CREATE USER 'dalton'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
Replace "password" with a strong password of your choice.
Grant the user access to the database by running:
GRANT ALL ON daltonplan.* TO 'dalton'@'localhost';
Finally, flush the privileges by running:
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Exit MySQL by running:
exit;
We can now download and install Dalton Plan. To do that, navigate to the Dalton Plan website (https://daltonplan.com/) and download the latest release.
Next, extract the downloaded file to the /var/www/html directory by running:
sudo tar -xvf daltonplan.tar.gz -C /var/www/html
Rename the extracted directory to "daltonplan" by running:
sudo mv /var/www/html/daltonplan-X.X.X /var/www/html/daltonplan
Replace "X.X.X" with the version number of the release that you downloaded.
Change the ownership of the "daltonplan" directory to the Apache user by running:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/daltonplan
Dalton Plan comes with a configuration file that we need to edit. Copy the example configuration file by running:
sudo cp /var/www/html/daltonplan/config.php.example /var/www/html/daltonplan/config.php
Edit the "config.php" file to set the database credentials. Open the file in a text editor by running:
sudo nano /var/www/html/daltonplan/config.php
Update the following lines with the database credentials that you set in Step 3:
define("DB_NAME", "daltonplan");
define("DB_USER", "dalton");
define("DB_PASS", "password");```
Save and exit the file.
## Step 6: Finish the Installation
Open your web browser and navigate to "http://localhost/daltonplan". You should see the Dalton Plan installation page.
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation. When prompted for the database host, use "localhost". For the database name, use "daltonplan". For the database username and password, use the credentials that you set in Step 3.
When the installation is complete, delete the "install" directory by running:
```sudo rm -rf /var/www/html/daltonplan/install```
