PHPBack is an open-source ticketing and project management system. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install PHPBack on NetBSD.
Before we start with the installation process, we need to update the system to the latest packages.
pkgin update && pkgin full-upgrade
We need to install some dependencies before installing PHPBack on our system:
pkgin install python2 bash apache24 php74-gd php74-curl php74-mysqli php74-mbstring php74-zip zip
First, we need to head to the PHPBack website and download the latest stable release of PHPBack.
cd /tmp
wget https://github.com/phpback/phpback/archive/refs/tags/v1.2.0.tar.gz
Next, we need to extract the contents of the downloaded file:
tar -zxvf v1.2.0.tar.gz
Move the PHPBack files to your web server's directory, which is located at /usr/pkg/share/httpd/htdocs/:
mv phpback-1.2.0 /usr/pkg/share/httpd/htdocs/phpback
Now that we have installed PHPBack, we need to configure Apache to use PHPBack.
Open the Apache configuration file, which is located at /usr/pkg/etc/httpd/httpd.conf, using your favorite text editor:
nano /usr/pkg/etc/httpd/httpd.conf
Add the following lines to the configuration file:
LoadModule php7_module lib/httpd/mod_php7.so
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
Save the file and exit.
Restart Apache to apply the changes:
apachectl graceful
Navigate to http://your-server-ip/phpback in your web browser, and you will see the PHPBack login page.
In this tutorial, we have learned how to install PHPBack on NetBSD. PHPBack is a simple yet effective solution for project management and ticket handling. With PHPBack, you can easily manage multiple projects efficiently.
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!
