Cypht is an open-source, modern, and lightweight webmail platform designed to offer a versatile and user-friendly interface for managing emails from multiple accounts. If you're an OpenSUSE user and you're looking for an intuitive and efficient webmail solution, Cypht can be an excellent choice.
This tutorial will walk you through the process of installing Cypht on OpenSUSE Latest in a simple and straightforward way.
Before proceeding with this guide, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
If you're missing any of these prerequisites, you can install them using the package manager of your Linux distribution.
First, you need to download the latest version of Cypht from the official website using the following command:
$ wget https://github.com/jasonmunro/cypht/archive/1.2.0.tar.gz
This command will download the Cypht source code to your current directory.
Once the download is complete, extract the Cypht archive by running the following command:
$ tar xvfz 1.2.0.tar.gz
This command will extract the Cypht files into a new directory called cypht-1.2.0.
Next, you need to copy the Cypht files to your web server's document root directory. If you're using Apache, the default document root directory is /srv/www/htdocs/. If you're using Nginx, the default document root directory is /usr/share/nginx/html/.
To copy the Cypht files to the document root directory, use the following command:
$ sudo cp -R cypht-1.2.0/* /srv/www/htdocs/
This command will copy all the Cypht files and subdirectories to the /srv/www/htdocs/ directory.
Next, you need to configure Cypht by creating a new configuration file. To do this, navigate to the config/ directory in the Cypht installation directory and copy the config.inc.php.sample file to a new file called config.inc.php using the following command:
$ cd /srv/www/htdocs/config/
$ cp config.inc.php.sample config.inc.php
Next, open the config.inc.php file in a text editor and configure the following settings according to your needs:
$config['debug'] = false;
$config['timezone'] = 'UTC';
$config['default_lang'] = 'en';
$config['allow_external'] = array();
$config['allow_iframe'] = false;
$config['system_password'] = 'mysecretpassword';
Replace the mysecretpassword value with a strong and secure password of your choice.
Once you've completed the configuration, you can access Cypht by opening a web browser and navigating to the following URL:
http://your-server-ip-address/
Replace your-server-ip-address with your server's actual IP address.
Now you know how to install Cypht on OpenSUSE Latest. With this webmail platform, you can manage all your emails in one place with ease and efficiency. Enjoy!
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!
