How to Install ZenTao on Fedora Server Latest

ZenTao is a project management software designed for businesses and organizations. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install ZenTao on Fedora Server Latest.

Prerequisites

Before you start installing ZenTao, make sure you have these requirements:

A Fedora Server Latest system with sudo privileges.
Apache and MySQL installed and configured on your system.

Step 1: Install Dependencies

We need to install some dependencies before we install ZenTao. Open the terminal and run the following command:

sudo dnf install php php-mbstring php-gd php-xml mariadb mariadb-server

Step 2: Download ZenTao

Now navigate to the directory where you want to install ZenTao and download the latest version of ZenTao from the official website with the following command:

cd /var/www/html/
sudo wget https://www.zentao.pm/dl/zentao/15-0-1/ZenTaoPMS.15.0.1.zbox_64.tar.gz

Step 3: Extract ZenTao

After downloading, extract the ZenTao archive file using the following command:

sudo tar xzf ZenTaoPMS.15.0.1.zbox_64.tar.gz

Step 4: Set Permissions

After extracting, we need to set the appropriate permissions to the extracted files and folders of ZenTao:

sudo chown -R apache.apache /var/www/html/zentaopms/
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/zentaopms/

Step 5: Configure MariaDB

Next, we need to create a database and user for ZenTao. Follow the steps below:

Login to the MariaDB shell using the following command:
```
sudo mysql -u root -p
```
Create a database for ZenTao:
```
CREATE DATABASE zentao;
```

Create a user and set a password:

CREATE USER 'zentao'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

Grant all privileges to the user on the database:

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON zentao.* to 'zentao'@'localhost';

Save and exit the MariaDB shell:
```
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
quit;
```

Step 6: Configure Apache

Now we need to configure Apache to serve ZenTao.

Create a new Apache virtual host configuration file for ZenTao:
```
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/zentao.conf
```

Paste the following configuration in the file and save it:

<Directory /var/www/html/zentaopms>
     Options FollowSymLinks
     AllowOverride All
     Require all granted
</Directory>

<VirtualHost *:80>
     ServerAdmin [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])
     DocumentRoot /var/www/html/zentaopms/
     ServerName zentao.example.com
     ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/zentao_error.log
     CustomLog /var/log/httpd/zentao_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

Note: Replace the value of ServerName with your domain name.

Reload the Apache service for the changes to take effect:
```
sudo systemctl reload httpd.service
```

Step 7: Access ZenTao

Now you can access ZenTao by navigating to your server's domain name in your web browser. For example, http://zentao.example.com/.

The first time you access ZenTao, you will be prompted to enter your database information. Enter the details that you have created earlier in step 5.

Finally, follow the installation wizard to finish the installation of ZenTao.

Congratulations! You have now successfully installed ZenTao on Fedora Server Latest.
