In this tutorial, we will go through the step-by-step process of installing EGroupware on Kali Linux Latest. EGroupware is an open-source groupware software for business use that allows you to manage your company's data, projects, and resources.
It's always recommended to update your system before installing any new software. First, open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
EGroupware requires some packages to be installed on your system. Run the following command to install them:
sudo apt-get install apache2 php7.3 php7.3-curl php7.3-gd php7.3-mysql php7.3-cli php7.3-common libphp-adodb libjs-jquery libicu-dev libmcrypt-dev git
You can download the EGroupware package from the official website or use Git to clone the project repository. In this tutorial, we will use Git.
First, move to the Apache2 document root directory:
cd /var/www/html/
Then clone the EGroupware repository using Git:
sudo git clone https://github.com/EGroupware/egroupware.git
Now, we need to set the correct permissions and ownership for the EGroupware files. Run the following commands:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data egroupware
sudo chmod -R 755 egroupware
Next, we need to configure Apache2 to serve the EGroupware application. First, create an Apache2 virtual host configuration file:
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/egroupware.conf
Add the following content to the file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName egroupware.yourdomain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/egroupware
<Directory /var/www/html/egroupware>
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/egroupware_error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/egroupware_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Replace egroupware.yourdomain.com with your own domain name. Save and exit the file.
Enable the virtual host and restart Apache2:
sudo a2ensite egroupware.conf
sudo systemctl restart apache2
Finally, open your web browser and navigate to http://egroupware.yourdomain.com/setup. You will see the EGroupware installation wizard.
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation. Make sure to enter your desired database name, username, and password when prompted.
Once the installation is complete, you can access the EGroupware application by navigating to http://egroupware.yourdomain.com/.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed EGroupware on Kali Linux Latest.
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!
