How to Install ProjeQtOr on Fedora CoreOS Latest

ProjeQtOr is an open-source project management software that can be installed on various operating systems, including Fedora CoreOS. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install ProjeQtOr on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS.

Prerequisites

  • Administrative access to the Fedora CoreOS instance
  • Basic knowledge of Linux commands
  • SSH access to the server

Step 1: Update the system

Before we start the installation process, ensure that the system is up-to-date by running the following command:

sudo dnf upgrade

Step 2: Install Apache, MariaDB, and PHP

ProjeQtOr requires a webserver, database, and PHP, which we can install using the following command:

sudo dnf install httpd mariadb-server php php-cli php-fpm php-mysqlnd php-gd php-ldap php-xml php-intl

Step 3: Configure MariaDB

Next, we will configure the MariaDB database. Follow these steps:

  1. Start the MariaDB service using the following command:
sudo systemctl start mariadb
  1. Run the MySQL secure installation script:
sudo mysql_secure_installation
  1. Create a new database and user for ProjeQtOr:
sudo mysql -u root -p
CREATE DATABASE projeqtor;
CREATE USER 'projeqtoruser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON projeqtor.* TO 'projeqtoruser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit

Step 4: Download and Install ProjeQtOr

We can download the latest version of ProjeQtOr from their official website using the following command:

wget https://download.projeqtor.org/release/projeqtormin-xx.yy.tar.gz

Note: Replace "xx.yy" with the latest stable release version.

Once the download is complete, extract the tarball using the following command:

tar -xvzf projeqtormin-xx.yy.tar.gz

Next, move the extracted folder to the Apache server's document root (/var/www/html) using the following command:

sudo mv projeqtormin-xx.yy /var/www/html/projeqtor

Change the ownership of the /var/www/html/projeqtor folder to the Apache user (httpd):

sudo chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/projeqtor

Step 5: Configure Apache for ProjeQtOr

To configure Apache to work with ProjeQtOr, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Apache configuration file using any text editor:
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
  1. Add the following configuration to the end of the file:
   Alias /projeqtor "/var/www/html/projeqtor"
   <Directory "/var/www/html/projeqtor">
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
   </Directory>
  1. Restart the Apache service:
sudo systemctl restart httpd

Step 6: Configure ProjeQtOr

The final step is to configure ProjeQtOr. Open a web browser and navigate to http://your-ip-address/projeqtor to launch the installation wizard.

Follow the on-screen instructions and provide the database name, username, and password that we created in Step 3. You can leave the other configurations at their default values unless you want to modify them.

Once the installation is complete, log in with the admin credentials that you provided during the installation.
