Step 1: Download myTinyTodo

Alternatively, you can also download myTinyTodo from their Github repository using the following command in the terminal:

Once the download is complete, extract the myTinyTodo files to your MXLinux Latest web server's document root directory. To do this, open a terminal and run the following command:

sudo tar -xvzf mytinytodo.tar.gz -C /var/www/html/

Note: Replace '/var/www/html/' with your web server's document root directory.

Step 3: Create myTinyTodo Database and User

Now, we need to create a MySQL or MariaDB database for myTinyTodo, along with a user and permissions. Open the terminal and log in to the MySQL or MariaDB server using the following command:

sudo mysql -u root -p

Enter your MySQL or MariaDB root password when prompted.

Next, create a new database for myTinyTodo:

CREATE DATABASE mytinytodo_db;

Replace 'mytinytodo_db' with your desired database name.

Now, create a new user for the myTinyTodo database:

CREATE USER 'mytinytodo_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'my_password';

Replace 'mytinytodo_user' and 'my_password' with a desired username and password.

Grant the user full permissions to the myTinyTodo database:

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON mytinytodo_db.* TO 'mytinytodo_user'@'localhost';

Exit the MySQL or MariaDB prompt:

exit

Step 4: Configure myTinyTodo

Once you have extracted the myTinyTodo files and created the database, it's time to configure it. Open the terminal and navigate to the myTinyTodo directory:

cd /var/www/html/mytinytodo/

Copy the 'config_sample.php' file to 'config.php':

sudo cp config_sample.php config.php

Edit the 'config.php' file using any text editor of your choice:

sudo nano config.php

Update the following lines in the file:

$my['host']     = 'localhost';
$my['login']    = 'mytinytodo_user';
$my['password'] = 'my_password';
$my['db']       = 'mytinytodo_db';

Replace 'mytinytodo_user', 'my_password', and 'mytinytodo_db' with the database user, password, and database name you created in step 3.

Save and exit the file.

Step 5: Run the Installation Script

myTinyTodo comes with an installation script that needs to be run to create the necessary database tables. Open the browser and navigate to http://localhost/mytinytodo/index.php?install.
