How to Install XBackBone on OpenSUSE Latest

This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing XBackBone, a file manager for your cloud storage, on OpenSUSE Latest.

Step 1: Enable OpenSUSE Latest Repositories

Before installing XBackBone, you need to ensure that the repositories for OpenSUSE Latest are enabled on your system. To do this, open a terminal and run the following command:

sudo zypper ar -f obs://Cloud:Tools/OpenSUSE_Leap_15.3/ cloudtools

This command will add the Cloud:Tools repository to your system and make it available for installation.

Step 2: Install Dependencies

Next, you need to install the dependencies required for XBackBone to function properly. Run the following command in your terminal:

sudo zypper install apache2 php7 php7-curl php7-gd php7-mbstring php7-zip unzip

This command will install Apache2, PHP7, and the necessary PHP7 extensions for XBackBone.

Step 3: Download and Extract XBackBone

You can download the latest version of XBackBone from their website at https://xbackbone.app/. Once you have downloaded the ZIP file, extract it to a folder of your choice using the following command:

unzip xbackbone-<version>.zip -d /var/www/htdocs/xbackbone

Replace <version> with the version number of the XBackBone release you downloaded.

Step 4: Configure Apache for XBackBone

Now you need to configure Apache to serve files from the XBackBone folder you just extracted. Edit the Apache configuration file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf using your favorite text editor and add the following lines at the end of the file:

Alias /xbackbone /var/www/htdocs/xbackbone

<Directory /var/www/htdocs/xbackbone>
        AllowOverride None
        Options FollowSymLinks
        Require all granted
</Directory>

Save the file and exit your text editor.

Step 5: Restart Apache

To apply the changes you made to the Apache configuration, you need to restart the Apache service using the following command:

sudo systemctl restart apache2

Step 6: Access XBackBone

Once you have completed the previous steps, you can access XBackBone by navigating to http://localhost/xbackbone in your web browser. You should see the XBackBone login page.
