How to Install WikiSuite on Void Linux

WikiSuite is a full-featured suite of collaborative and communication tools that is perfect for businesses, organizations, and communities. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install WikiSuite on Void Linux.

Prerequisites

Before beginning the installation process, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:

Step 1: Update your packages

First, update your system to ensure that all packages are up to date.

sudo xbps-install -Su

Step 2: Enable the non-free repository

WikiSuite is not available in the official Void Linux repository. To install WikiSuite, you need to enable the non-free repository first.

To enable the non-free repository, open the xbps-src.conf file located in /etc/xbps.d directory and add the following lines at the end of the file:

repository=https://alpha.de.repo.voidlinux.org/current/non-free
repository=https://alpha.de.repo.voidlinux.org/current/multilib/non-free

Save the file and run the following command to update the repository:

sudo xbps-install -S

Step 3: Install WikiSuite

Now that the non-free repository is enabled, you can install WikiSuite by running the following command:

sudo xbps-install -S wikisuite

During the installation, you will be prompted to create a database for WikiSuite. Enter a MySQL or MariaDB root user password when prompted.

Once the installation is complete, you can access WikiSuite by entering the server's IP address or domain name in your web browser. The default username and password are both admin.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed WikiSuite on Void Linux. You can now start collaborating and communicating with your team using the many tools provided by WikiSuite.

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!
