AgenDAV is an open-source multi-user calendar and contact management web application that allows you to easily share schedules, tasks, and contacts with others. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install AgenDAV on OpenSUSE Latest.
Before you get started, make sure you have the following:
First, update the package manager and install the required packages that AgenDAV depends on:
sudo zypper update
sudo zypper install apache2 php7 php7-mbstring php7-gettext php7-mysql php7-session php7-dom php7-xmlreader php7-xmlwriter
Next, download the latest version of AgenDAV from the official website:
wget https://github.com/agendav/agendav/releases/download/2.3.2/agendav-2.3.2.zip
Extract the downloaded file:
unzip agendav-2.3.2.zip
Now copy the extracted agendav directory to /srv/www/htdocs/:
sudo cp -r agendav /srv/www/htdocs/
Give the necessary permissions to the AgenDAV directory:
sudo chown -R wwwrun: .
sudo chmod -R 755 .
Create a new Apache virtual host configuration file for AgenDAV:
sudo nano /etc/apache2/conf.d/agendav.conf
Paste the following configuration:
Alias /agendav /srv/www/htdocs/agendav
<Directory /srv/www/htdocs/agendav>
Options FollowSymLinks
DirectoryIndex index.php
Require all granted
</Directory>
<FilesMatch \.php$>
SetHandler "proxy:fcgi://127.0.0.1:9000"
</FilesMatch>
Save and close the file.
Enable the proxy module:
sudo a2enmod proxy_fcgi
Then, restart the Apache web server:
sudo systemctl restart apache2
AgenDAV requires a MySQL/MariaDB database to run.
Install MariaDB server:
sudo zypper install mariadb mariadb-client
Now start the MariaDB service:
sudo systemctl start mariadb
Create a new database:
sudo mysql -u root -e "CREATE DATABASE agendav;"
Create a new database user and grant it full privileges on the agendav database:
sudo mysql -u root -e "CREATE USER 'agendav'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';"
sudo mysql -u root -e "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON agendav.* TO 'agendav'@'localhost';"
sudo mysql -u root -e "FLUSH PRIVILEGES;"
Open your web browser and navigate to http://your-server-ip/agendav.
The AgenDAV setup wizard will guide you through the installation process. Choose the MySQL/MariaDB as the database type and enter the database name, username, and password that you created earlier.
In the next step, configure the admin user and password.
Once the installation is complete, you will be redirected to the AgenDAV login page. Enter your admin credentials to log in.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed AgenDAV on OpenSUSE Latest. You can now invite other users to join the platform and start sharing schedules, tasks, and contacts.
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!
