OpenApp Joomla

Joomla is a free and open source content management system (CMS) for publishing content on the World Wide Web and intranets and a model–view–controller (MVC) Web application framework that can also be used independently.

Joomla is written in PHP, uses object-oriented programming (OOP) techniques and software design patterns, stores data in a MySQL database, and includes features such as page caching, RSS feeds, printable versions of pages, news flashes, blogs, polls, search, and support for language internationalization.

OpenApp Joomla is based on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, and comes with:

Apache2 with mod_php
Mysql server

Installing OpenApp Joomla

Please note that OpenApp always expects a clean install! Installing OpenApp packages on a non-clean system is likely to lead to data-loss or a non-functional system.

To install OpenApp Joomla, add the following to /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://download.openpanel.com/deb lucid main openapp

Then, as root, type:

apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 4EAC69B9
apt-get update
apt-get install openapp-joomla

During the install, you will get some questions:

Postfix — configuration type
Select ‘Internet Site’ (press enter). OpenApp will configure postfix later on
Postfix — System mail name. This should be the hostname of your system and should already be entered (press enter). OpenApp can configure this later on

Once all packages have been installed, it is time to set a password for OpenPanel:

openpanel-cli "update user password=«your password»"

You can now login at https://«your ipaddress»:4089/ with the password entered in the previous step.
You are now in the OpenPanel-interface of your machine. Here, you can easily configure backups, outgoing email and optional software upgrades.
