You only need to use a Server version of Ubuntu 16.04, plus SSH client to remotely connect to your server.

Note: Installing on a remote web server like VPS or Dedicated server, is not too different with this procedure. You should now be able to login and explore the admin and frontend. You can also use this guide under Server Edition of Ubuntu, but you need extra tool called SSH. To install osTicket locally, fire up your browsser and navigate to – install page should open, and you should see that all recommended php extension are enabled.Ĭhange file permission for /var/Note: While NOT mandatory for a demo/test setup, you should delete the setup directory for security purpose.īy now, you should already put up an instance of OST on Ubuntu. If you fail to complete this step, you end up running through *Error 500** when accessing the frontend. Invoke the following command in sequence, hitting ENTER key for each command:Ĭommand 1 sudo apt-get purge `dpkg -l | grep php| awk ' \ Step 2: Purge PHP version 7.0 and install v5.6.0

So we need to purge php after installing the LAMP stack. I’ve mentioned above that php v7.0 is not compatible with OST v1.9.14. The above command shall install Apache Web Server, MySQL Database Server, php v7.0 – along with phpMyAdmin for frontend database administration. To install LAMP using PHP v5.6.0, type the following on the command line. So to install OST on Ubuntu 16.04, we need to completely purge php v7.0 (specific to our case) and let’s bring php v5.6 onboard. In other cases, this won’t be necessary since you can have both version (php v5.6 & v7.0) on the same server, but that’s more complicated for Linux noob like ourselves. We need to remove v7.0 and use v5.6 instead. Take note of this again, when you run apt-get install lamp-server^ on Ubuntu 16.04 – what you’ll get is php v7.0. But we can get around that, and instead, install PHP v5.6.0. The version which is NOT yet support as of OST v1.9.14. Ubuntu 16.04, is shipped with PHP version 7.0. Step 1: Install the LAMP Stack on Ubuntu 16.04 Then follow these steps below to start off. To launch a terminal in Ubuntu Desktop, press and hold ctrl + alt then t Also, you must already have launched a Terminal. Why the 16.04 LTS version? Because it’s the latest, and it has latest fixes and features that I won’t be discussing here.īefore starting off with this guide, make sure you already have downloaded the latest version of OST. But in my case, I’m gonna be using the 64-bit version. It’s up to you whether you want to use the 32 or 64-bit version. If you want to install osTicket locally using Ubuntu, then you need a Desktop version of Ubuntu 16.04.

It makes things a lot easier if you ask me.and no need to mess with IIS.XAMPP makes it VERY simple!! If you do some google searching you can also get directions how to lock down the xampp directory and your phpmyadmin panel so nobody can get into it.since XAMPP is primarily a 'test environment' application. ex: I also had the IP masked via DNS so instead of '192.168.1.100' it's 'mywebsitename'. I do however have to make my users go to a site that has a defined port (I just created shortcuts on all users desktops so they don't even really know the sites URL. I loaded the osTicket files into the D:\xampp\htdocs directory and run it from there.

I did however install XAMPP on it and changed the default ports.
