This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing XBackBone, a file manager for your cloud storage, on OpenSUSE Latest.
Before installing XBackBone, you need to ensure that the repositories for OpenSUSE Latest are enabled on your system. To do this, open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo zypper ar -f obs://Cloud:Tools/OpenSUSE_Leap_15.3/ cloudtools
This command will add the Cloud:Tools repository to your system and make it available for installation.
Next, you need to install the dependencies required for XBackBone to function properly. Run the following command in your terminal:
sudo zypper install apache2 php7 php7-curl php7-gd php7-mbstring php7-zip unzip
This command will install Apache2, PHP7, and the necessary PHP7 extensions for XBackBone.
You can download the latest version of XBackBone from their website at https://xbackbone.app/. Once you have downloaded the ZIP file, extract it to a folder of your choice using the following command:
unzip xbackbone-<version>.zip -d /var/www/htdocs/xbackbone
Replace <version> with the version number of the XBackBone release you downloaded.
Now you need to configure Apache to serve files from the XBackBone folder you just extracted. Edit the Apache configuration file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf using your favorite text editor and add the following lines at the end of the file:
Alias /xbackbone /var/www/htdocs/xbackbone
<Directory /var/www/htdocs/xbackbone>
AllowOverride None
Options FollowSymLinks
Require all granted
</Directory>
Save the file and exit your text editor.
To apply the changes you made to the Apache configuration, you need to restart the Apache service using the following command:
sudo systemctl restart apache2
Once you have completed the previous steps, you can access XBackBone by navigating to http://localhost/xbackbone in your web browser. You should see the XBackBone login page.
Log in with your cloud storage credentials and enjoy browsing and managing your files with XBackBone!
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!
