Organizr is a web application that allows you to manage your home server in a simple, clean way. It is a self-hosted dashboard that provides an overview of all services you are running on your server. In this tutorial, we will walk through the steps to install Organizr on Kali Linux Latest.
Before installing Organizr, please ensure that you have the following:
The first step in installing Organizr is to install some dependencies. These dependencies include PHP, Apache, MySQL, and Git.
To install these dependencies, run the following commands in the terminal:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install apache2 php php-mysql mysql-server git
Once the dependencies are installed, you can start installing Organizr on your Kali Linux machine. The easiest way to install Organizr is by using Git.
To install Organizr using Git, run the following command in the terminal:
cd /var/www/html
sudo git clone https://github.com/causefx/Organizr.git
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/Organizr
Once Git has cloned the repository, you will need to configure Apache to serve the page. To do this, create a new configuration file by running the following command:
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/organizr.conf
Paste the following contents into the file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/Organizr
DirectoryIndex index.php
<Directory /var/www/html/Organizr>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/organizr_error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/organizr_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Save and close the file.
Now, enable the configuration file by running the following command:
sudo a2ensite organizr.conf
To reload the Apache configuration, run this command:
sudo service apache2 reload
Once Organizr has been installed and configured, you can access the web application through your Kali Linux machine’s IP address. Open your web browser and navigate to http://[your_kali_ip_address]/Organizr.
You will then see the Organizr setup page. Follow the prompts to create your admin account, database connection, and other configurations.
Once you have completed the setup, you will be taken to the Organizr dashboard, where you can add and manage services.
That’s it! With these simple steps, you now have Organizr up and running on your Kali Linux machine. You can now use this web application to manage your home server with ease.
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!
