How to Install Access to Memory (AtoM) on Kali Linux

Access to Memory (AtoM) is a free, open-source web-based application designed to manage archives, museums, and other cultural heritage institutions. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of installing AtoM on Kali Linux.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, ensure that the following prerequisites are met:

Kali Linux is installed and up to date
Apache web server is installed and running
PHP 7.2 or later is installed
MySQL or MariaDB is installed and running

Step-by-Step Installation

Download the latest version of AtoM from their website at https://www.accesstomemory.org/download/.
Extract the downloaded file using the following command:
```
$ tar -xvzf atom-x.x.x.tar.gz 
```
Replace x.x.x with the version number of AtoM you downloaded.
Move the extracted files to your Apache web server's document root directory:
```
$ sudo mv atom-x.x.x /var/www/html/atom
```

Set the appropriate permissions for the atom directory:

$ sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/atom/

Create a new database for AtoM to use by accessing MySQL/MariaDB:

$ sudo mysql -u root -p
mysql> create database atomdb;
mysql> grant all privileges on atomdb.* to atomuser@localhost identified by 'password';
mysql> flush privileges;
mysql> exit

Replace atomdb, atomuser and password with your desired database name, username, and password, respectively.

Import the AtoM database structure into the newly created database:
```
$ cd /var/www/html/atom
$ sudo mysql -u atomuser -p atomdb < setup/atom.sql
```
Enter the password for the atomuser account when prompted.

Configure the config/db.inc.php file with the database credentials:

$ sudo nano /var/www/html/atom/config/db.inc.php

Modify the following lines to include your database name, username, and password:

define("APP_DB_NAME", 'atomdb');
define("APP_DB_USER", 'atomuser');
define("APP_DB_PASSWORD", 'password');

Access your AtoM installation by navigating to http://localhost/atom in your web browser.
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation process.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed AtoM on Kali Linux.
