OhMyForms is an open-source, lightweight web form builder that allows you to create custom forms easily. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing OhMyForms on OpenSUSE Latest step by step.
Before installing any package on OpenSUSE, it is recommended to update the system. To do this, open the terminal and enter the following command:
sudo zypper up
This command will update your system to the latest available packages.
Next, you need to install some dependencies required to run OhMyForms. To do this, run the following command in the terminal:
sudo zypper in apache2 php php-ctype php-json php-mbstring php-openssl php-zip
This command will install Apache Web Server, PHP and required dependencies.
Now, we need to download and extract the OhMyForms package. You can do this using the following command:
wget https://github.com/ohmyform/ohmyform/releases/download/v2.5.0/ohmyform-2.5.0.zip
This command will download the latest version of OhMyForms to your system. Once the download is complete, you can extract the package using the following command:
unzip ohmyform-2.5.0.zip -d /var/www/html/
The above command will extract the package to /var/www/html/ directory.
Now, you need to set the correct permissions for the OhMyForms directory. To do this, run the following command in the terminal:
sudo chown -R wwwrun:www /var/www/html/ohmyform/
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/ohmyform/
This command will set the owner and group of the OhMyForms directory to wwwrun, which is the default user of Apache Web Server, and set the correct permissions.
Next, we need to create a virtual host configuration file for OhMyForms so that Apache can serve the application. To do this, create a new configuration file in the /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/ directory using the following command:
sudo nano /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/ohmyform.conf
Now, paste the following configuration into the file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/ohmyform/
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/ohmyform-error_log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/ohmyform-access_log combined
</VirtualHost>
Once you have pasted the configuration, save and close the file.
Finally, you need to restart the Apache Web Server for the changes to take effect. To do this, run the following command in the terminal:
sudo systemctl restart apache2
This command will restart the Apache Web Server.
