Install phpVirtualBox in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Video Tutorial.
It's a webbased tool, we need to install Apache HTTPD webserver, PHP and some additional php modules.
Lets go ahead.
- Install Mandatory packages.
cybeerkeeda@Linux-Maniac:~ sudo apt-get install apache2 php php-mysql libapache2-mod-php php-soap php-xml
- Download the phpVirtualBox latest version from phpVirtualBox download page.
cybeerkeeda@Linux-Maniac:~ cd /tmp ; wget https://sourceforge.net/projects/phpvirtualbox/files/phpvirtualbox-5.0-5.zip
- Unzip it.
cybeerkeeda@Linux-Maniac:~ unzip phpvirtualbox-5.0-5.zip
cybeerkeeda@Linux-Maniac:~ mv phpvirtualbox-5.0-5 phpvirtualbox
- Move the extracted phvirtualbox folder to your apache webserver root folder.
cybeerkeeda@Linux-Maniac:~ mv phpvirtualbox /var/www/html/
- Assign the proper permissions to the phpvirtualbox folder.
cybeerkeeda@Linux-Maniac:~ chmod 777 /var/www/html/phpvirtualbox/
- Configure phpVirtualBox.
Copy the sample config file as shown below.
cybeerkeeda@Linux-Maniac:~ cp var/www/html/phpvirtualbox/config.php-example var/www/html/phpvirtualbox/config.php
- Edit phpVirtualBox config.php file:
cybeerkeeda@Linux-Maniac:~vim /var/www/html/phpvirtualbox/config.php
Find the following lines and replace the
username and password with your system user
In my case, my username is kunal, and password is redhat.
var $username = 'kunal';
var $password = 'redhat';
Save and close the file.
Create a new file called /etc/default/virtualbox:
cybeerkeeda@Linux-Maniac:~vim /etc/default/virtualbox
Add the following line. Replace ‘kunal’ with your own username.
VBOXWEB_USER=kunal
Finally, Reboot your system or restart all services to complete the configuration.
sudo systemctl restart vboxweb-service
sudo systemctl restart vboxdrv
sudo systemctl restart apache2
You can disable the authentication mechanism.
// Disable authentication
var $noAuth = true;
I will open it directly from my browser without any authentication.
Here we go.. We have installed it..
