DomainMOD is an open-source web application that helps users manage their domain names. In this tutorial, we will guide you to install DomainMOD on Manjaro Linux.
First, we need to download DomainMOD from the official website. Open your web browser and visit https://domainmod.org. Click on the Download button, and save the file to your local machine.
Next, extract the downloaded archive. Open a terminal, navigate to the directory where the file is downloaded and use the following command to extract the file:
tar -zxvf domainmod-4.x.x.tar.gz
Replace 4.x.x with the version number of DomainMOD you have downloaded.
Now, move the extracted DomainMOD files to the web server directory. Open a terminal, navigate to the extracted folder and execute the following command:
sudo mv domainmod /srv/http/
This will move the DomainMOD files to the Apache2 web server's document root directory /srv/http/.
DomainMOD files should have the correct permissions to be accessed by the web server. Execute the following commands to change the ownership and permissions:
sudo chown -R http:http /srv/http/domainmod/
sudo chmod -R 755 /srv/http/domainmod/
To use DomainMOD, we first need to create a database. Open a terminal and launch the MySQL client by executing the following command:
mysql -u root -p
Enter the MySQL root password when prompted. Then, create a new database by executing the following command:
CREATE DATABASE domainmod;
Replace domainmod with the name of the database of your choice.
In this step, we need to configure DomainMOD to use the created database. Open a web browser and enter the following URL:
http://localhost/domainmod/install.php
This will launch the DomainMOD installation wizard. Follow the on-screen instructions and enter the following information:
MySQLdomainmodlocalhostrootAfter completing these fields, click on the Test Database Connection button to make sure DomainMOD can connect with the database you've created. If everything is successful, click on the Install button.
For security reasons, we need to remove the installation script after setting up DomainMOD. Open a terminal and execute the following command:
sudo rm /srv/http/domainmod/install.php
DomainMOD is now installed on your Manjaro Linux system. Open a web browser and enter the following URL to access DomainMOD:
http://localhost/domainmod/
Congratulations! You have successfully installed DomainMOD on your Manjaro system.
