How do I run OpenProject

Hello:

I’m pretty sure this is the roockiest question in the world, yet It must be done:

I’couldn’t install OpenProject package for Ubuntu, so I (allegedly) installed it manually.

After long hours of irrational work, I got to this point in the manual:

Now, we (re-)start Apache:

[root@all] service apache2 reload

Your OpenProject installation should be accessible on port 80 (http). A default admin-account is created for you having the following credentials:

Username: admin
Password: admin

Please, change the password on the first login. Also, we highly recommend to configure the SSL module in Apache for https communication.

The thing is: I am a rookie on computers. I have no idea what does having the Open Project Installation accesible on port 80 (http) means, so I have no clue what to do next (I obviously haven’t used the subsequent credentials).

I would ask this in forums, but anyone seems to be having issues which such a simple doubt.

Please, I’m begging you; I need your help.

Best regards.

Hi Mercurio,

port 80 is the default port. You should be able to access your OpenProject installation via http://localhost (provided you installed it on your local machine - otherwise replace localhost with the IP address where you installed it).
