OpenProject is a free and open-source project management software that allows users to manage projects, teams, and tasks efficiently. In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to install OpenProject on OpenSUSE latest.
Before we start, we need to ensure that the following prerequisites are installed:
Before we begin the installation process, we need to make sure that all the system packages are up to date. You can update your OpenSUSE system by running the following command:
sudo zypper update
OpenProject has some dependencies that need to be installed before we begin the actual installation. Issue the following command to install the necessary dependencies:
sudo zypper install curl git gnupg2
OpenProject provides an official repository for OpenSUSE. We need to add this repository to our system. Run the following command on your terminal to import the OpenProject GPG key:
sudo rpm --import https://dl.packager.io/srv/opf/openproject/key
Next, let’s add the OpenProject repository. Run the following command in your terminal:
sudo zypper ar https://dl.packager.io/srv/opf/openproject/stable/14.6.x/suse/tumbleweed/ openproject
After adding the OpenProject repository, we can now install OpenProject. Simply run the following command on your terminal:
sudo zypper install openproject
This command will install all the necessary packages required to run OpenProject.
The installation is now complete, and OpenProject is ready to use. You can now access it from your browser by navigating to the following URL:
http://localhost:8080
You will be redirected to the OpenProject Configuration Wizard, where you will have to set up the administrator account, database, and email settings.
Once you have completed the configuration, you can log in with your administrator account and start using OpenProject.
In this tutorial, we have demonstrated how to install OpenProject on OpenSUSE latest. You should now be able to set up and use OpenProject for your project management needs.
