How to Install Organizr on Ubuntu Server Latest

Organizr is a web-based front-end for various web applications that lets you access them all at one place. Here's how you can install it on Ubuntu Server Latest:

Prerequisites

  • A user account with sudo privileges
  • A running instance of Ubuntu Server Latest
  • An internet connection

Step 1: Install Required Packages

Before we can start installing Organizr, we need to install some required packages on our Ubuntu Server. Run the following command to do it:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y curl unzip nginx php7.4 php7.4-fpm php7.4-curl php7.4-dom php7.4-mbstring

Step 2: Download Organizr

To download Organizr, we need to use the curl command. Run the following command to download the latest version of Organizr:

curl -o organizr.zip -L https://github.com/causefx/Organizr/archive/v2.1.7.1.zip

Step 3: Extract Organizr

After downloading Organizr, extract it using the unzip command. Run the following command to extract it:

unzip organizr.zip -d organizr

Step 4: Install Organizr

Now that we have extracted Organizr, we can install it. To do so, we need to move the Organizr files to the web root directory, which is /var/www/html. Run the following command to do it:

sudo mv organizr/Organizr-*/* /var/www/html/

Step 5: Configure Nginx

Next, we need to configure Nginx to serve the Organizr files. Run the following command to create a new configuration file for Organizr:

sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/organizr

Copy and paste the following configuration into the file, then save and exit:

server {
    listen 80;
    listen [::]:80;

    root /var/www/html;
    index index.php index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;

    server_name yourdomain.com;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        include fastcgi_params;
    }
}

In the above configuration, replace yourdomain.com with your own domain name.

Now enable the configuration by creating a symbolic link:

sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/organizr /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/

Finally, we need to remove the default configuration file and restart Nginx:

sudo rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
sudo systemctl restart nginx

Step 6: Set Permissions

We need to set the proper permissions on the Organizr files so that Nginx can access them. Run the following command to do it:

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

Step 7: Access Organizr

Now you can access Organizr by opening your web browser and navigating to http://yourdomain.com. If you installed Organizr on your local machine, then you can access it by navigating to http://localhost.

You should see the Organizr login page. The default username and password are admin and admin.

That's it! You have successfully installed Organizr on Ubuntu Server Latest.
