SabreDAV is a WebDAV framework that allows users to access and manage files over HTTP. In this tutorial, we will go over how to install SabreDAV on MXLinux.
Before starting the installation, it's important to ensure that your system is up to date. You can do this by running the following command in the terminal:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
SabreDAV requires a few dependencies to be installed before it can be installed. Run the following command to install required dependencies:
sudo apt install apache2 php7.2 php7.2-xml php7.2-mbstring
Download SabreDAV from the official website. You can use the following command to download it:
wget https://github.com/sabre-io/dav/releases/download/4.2.7/sabre-dav-4.2.7.zip
To extract the downloaded file, use the following command:
unzip sabre-dav-4.2.7.zip
To move SabreDAV to the Apache document root, use the following command:
sudo mv sabre-dav-4.2.7 /var/www/html/
Next, we need to set the appropriate permissions to SabreDAV. Run the following command to do so:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/sabre-dav-4.2.7
Finally, we need to configure Apache to serve SabreDAV. Luckily, MXLinux comes with Apache pre-installed.
Copy the SabreDAV Apache configuration file to the /etc/apache2/sites-available/ directory using the following command:
sudo cp /var/www/html/sabre-dav-4.2.7/3rdparty/SabreAMF/examples/apache-conf-httpd24 /etc/apache2/sites-available/sabredav.conf
Next, enable the newly created virtual host, and restart Apache using the following commands:
sudo a2ensite sabredav.conf
sudo service apache2 restart
You can now access SabreDAV by using a WebDAV client to connect to http://localhost/sabre-dav-4.2.7/. The default login credentials are: Username: admin Password: admin
That's it! You have successfully installed SabreDAV on MXLinux. Happy file managing!
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!
