Prerequisites

Before installing Adagios, make sure that you have the following prerequisites on your system:

  • Elementary OS Latest installed and updated.

Step 1: Install Apache and PHP

Adagios requires Apache web server and PHP to be installed on your system. You can install them using the following command:

To check if Apache is running on your system, open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost. You should see the default Apache welcome page.

Step 2: Install Adagios

You can download the latest version of Adagios from the official website. In this tutorial, we will download and install Adagios version 1.6.3.

First, open a terminal and navigate to the directory where you want to download Adagios. You can use the following command to download the package:

Save and close the file.

Next, create a symlink for Adagios in the Apache web server directory using the following command:
