Manual installation

To manually install GLPI on a machine use following steps:

  1. Download latest stable GLPI from Internet ( http://glpi-project.org/spip.php?article41 at time of this writing)
  2. Install httpd, mod_ssl, php, php-ldap, mysql-server, php-mysql, php-mbstring, php-gd and MySQL-python packages
    Latest version of GLPI required php5.6
  3. Extract glpi sources in /var/www/html so that various files are in /var/www/html/glpi
  4. Create /var/www/html/index.html to redirect to glpi as explained at Redirecting_site_using_apache_configuration#Redirect_using_HTML_META_refresh
  5. chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html
  6. service httpd start; chkconfig httpd on
  7. service mysqld start; chkconfig mysqld on
  8. Start mysql using 'mysql' command and use following:
    create database glpi;
    grant all on glpi.* to glpi@localhost identified by '<password>'
    flush privileges;
    where <password> can be replaced suitably.
  9. Visit http://<server>/glpi and setup GLPI
  10. Login using username glpi and password glpi


Automated installation

For automated installation of glpi use following ansible script ('glpi.yaml'):

---
  - name: Download and install glpi
    hosts: glpi_servers
    remote_user: root
 
    vars:
      glpi_download_url: https://forge.indepnet.net/attachments/download/1954/glpi-0.85.2.tar.gz
      glpi_local_path: /root/glpi.tar.bz2
      httpd_document_root: /var/www/html/
      mysql_glpi_password: rekall123

    tasks:
      - name: Download GLPI from Internet
        get_url: url="{{ glpi_download_url }}"  dest="{{ glpi_local_path }}"

      - name: Install apache, mod_ssl, php, php-ldap, mysql-server, php-mysql, php-mbstring, php-gd
        yum: name={{ item }} state=present
        with_items:
          - httpd
          - mod_ssl
          - php
          - php-ldap
          - mysql-server
          - php-mysql
          - php-mbstring
          - php-gd
          - MySQL-python
        notify:
          - restart apache


      - stat: path="{{httpd_document_root}}/index.html"
        register: index_html

      - name: Copy iptables file if not present already
        template: src=iptables dest=/etc/sysconfig/iptables
        notify:
          - restart iptables
          - restart fail2ban

      - name: Extract glpi downloaded sources in /var/www/html
        unarchive: copy=no src="{{glpi_local_path}}" dest="{{httpd_document_root}}" owner=apache group=apache
        when: index_html.stat.exists == False

      - name: Copy index.html file to documentroot
        copy: src=index.html dest="{{ httpd_document_root }}" owner=apache group=apache

      - name: Ensure files are owned by apache user
        file: dest="{{ httpd_document_root }}" owner=apache group=apache recurse=yes

      - name: Start and Enable httpd, mysqld
        service: name={{ item }} state=started enabled=yes
        with_items:
          - httpd
          - mysqld

      - name: Create glpi database in mysql
        mysql_db: name=glpi

      - name: Create glpi user and give all permissions on glpi database
        mysql_user: name=glpi password="{{ mysql_glpi_password }}" priv=glpi.*:ALL

      - name: Print web instructions
        debug: msg="Please visit http://{{ ansible_default_ipv4.address }} and setup glpi using MySQL username glpi, password {{ mysql_glpi_password }} and host localhost.  Login using glpi:glpi"


      - name: Print post setup instructions
        debug: msg="After setup is complete also run glpi_postsetup.yaml playbook to remove install/install.php file from glpi server"


    handlers:
      - name: restart apache
        service: name=httpd state=restarted

      - name: restart iptables
        service: name=iptables state=restarted

      - name: restart fail2ban
        service: name=fail2ban state=restarted

The ansible script assumes availability of index.html with following content:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
	<meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" />
	<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; URL=glpi" />
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

in same folder

The script also assumes availability of iptables jinja2 template with following content in the same folder:

Once installation is complete use following script for post-installation setup ('glpi_postsetup.yaml'):

---
  - name: Remove install/install.php from glpi
    hosts: glpi_servers
    remote_user: root
 
    vars:
      httpd_document_root: /var/www/html/

    tasks:
    - name: Remove install/install.php file
      file: path="{{ httpd_document_root }}"glpi/install/install.php state=absent
