Installing ZenTao on Void Linux

ZenTao is a project management software that can help manage product development, project planning, and task tracking. In this tutorial, we will explain step by step how to install ZenTao on Void Linux.

Prerequisites

Step 1: Install required packages

Before installing ZenTao, we need to make sure that all required packages are installed. Open the terminal and run the following command to install necessary dependencies:

sudo xbps-install -Su
sudo xbps-install -y wget unzip nginx php-fpm php-pdo_mysql

Step 2: Download ZenTao

Next, we need to download the latest version of ZenTao. You can either download it manually from the ZenTao website, or use the following command to download and extract it:

wget https://www.zentao.pm/dl/zentao/17.1.1/ZenTaoPMS.17.1.1.zbox_64.tar.gz
tar xvf ZenTaoPMS.17.1.1.zbox_64.tar.gz

Note: You can replace the version number with the latest one if available.

Step 3: Configure web server

We need to configure Nginx to serve ZenTao. Create a new configuration file for ZenTao in the directory /etc/nginx/conf.d/ with a name like zentao.conf:

sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/zentao.conf

Then copy and paste the following configuration:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name zentao.example.com;
    root /path/to/zentaopms/www;

    index index.php index.html;
    error_log /var/log/nginx/zentao.error.log;
    access_log /var/log/nginx/zentao.access.log;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
    }
}

Remember to replace zentao.example.com with your domain name, and /path/to/zentaopms with the full path to your ZenTao installation directory.

Save and close the file.

Step 4: Start web server

Start Nginx and PHP-FPM with the following commands:

sudo ln -s /etc/sv/nginx /var/service/
sudo ln -s /etc/sv/php-fpm /var/service/

Now, you should be able to access ZenTao by visiting http://zentao.example.com in your web browser.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed ZenTao on Void Linux. You can now manage your projects, tasks, and product development using this powerful project management software.
