How to Install UberGallery on Kali Linux

UberGallery is a simple, highly customizable image gallery application that allows you to display your images in a variety of formats. This tutorial will guide you through the steps of installing UberGallery on Kali Linux.

Prerequisites

To follow this tutorial, you must have:

Step 1: Install Git

If you do not have Git installed on your system, you can install it by running the following command:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git

Step 2: Clone the UberGallery repository

Next, we will clone the UberGallery repository onto our system. To do so, navigate to your web server's root directory (e.g., /var/www/html/) and run the following command:

sudo git clone https://github.com/UberGallery/UberGallery.git

Step 3: Configure UberGallery

After cloning the repository, navigate to the UberGallery directory and open the config.php file in a text editor:

cd UberGallery
sudo nano config.php

Here, you can modify the configuration settings to fit your needs. Be sure to set the correct path to your images directory and set a secure password for the admin panel.

Step 4: Configure Permissions

For UberGallery to function correctly, we need to set the appropriate permissions for the directories and files. First, change the ownership of the cache directory to the user running the web server:

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data cache

Next, change the permissions of the cache directory to make it writable:

sudo chmod -R 755 cache

Lastly, change the permissions of the resources/compiled directory to make it writable:

sudo chmod -R 755 resources/compiled

Step 5: Access UberGallery

With UberGallery installed and configured, you can now access it through your web browser by navigating to:

http://localhost/UberGallery/

If you set a password for the admin panel, you will be prompted to enter it before accessing the gallery.

Congratulations, you have successfully installed UberGallery on Kali Linux!
