Without install script

Install playSMS without using install script.

Please note that before following below steps you need to cover all steps required in Requirements setup on Ubuntu.

Please also note that the current official release is playSMS version 1.3.1 and we will use that.

  1. Extract playSMS package and go there (For example in /usr/local/src)

    sudo tar -zxf playsms-1.3.1.tar.gz -C /usr/local/src
ls -l /usr/local/src/
cd /usr/local/src/playsms-1.3.1/

  2. Run getcomposer.sh

    sudo ./getcomposer.sh

    You may see the following warning, that can safely be ignored:

    Warning: Ambiguous class resolution, "PEAR_ErrorStack" was found in both "/usr/local/src/playsms-1.3.1/web/lib/composer/vendor/pear/pear/PEAR/ErrorStack.php" and "/usr/local/src/playsms-1.3.1/web/lib/composer/vendor/pear/pear/PEAR/ErrorStack5.php", the first will be used.

  3. Create playSMS web root, log, lib and set ownership to user www-data or web server user

    Assumed that your web root is /var/www/html and your web server user is www-data

    sudo mkdir -p /var/www/html/playsms /var/log/playsms /var/lib/playsms
sudo chown -R www-data /var/www/html/playsms /var/log/playsms /var/lib/playsms

    Please note that there are Linux distributions using apache as web server user instead of www-data

    Also note that there are Linux distributions set /var/www as web root instead of /var/www/html

  4. Copy files and directories inside web directory to playSMS web root and set ownership to web server user

    sudo cp -R web/* /var/www/html/playsms
sudo chown -R www-data /var/www/html/playsms

  5. Setup database (import database)

    mysqladmin -u root -p create playsms
mysql -u root -p playsms < db/playsms.sql

  6. Copy config-dist.php to config.php and then edit config.php

    sudo cp /var/www/html/playsms/config-dist.php /var/www/html/playsms/config.php
sudo nano /var/www/html/playsms/config.php

    Please read and fill all fields with correct values

  7. Enter daemon/linux directory, copy files and folder inside

    sudo cp daemon/linux/etc/playsmsd.conf /etc/playsmsd.conf
sudo cp daemon/linux/bin/playsmsd /usr/local/bin/playsmsd

  8. Just to make sure every paths are correct, please edit /etc/playsmsd.conf

    nano /etc/playsmsd.conf

    Make sure that PLAYSMS_PATH is pointing to a correct playSMS installation path (in this example to /var/www/html/playsms)

    Also Make sure that PLAYSMS_BIN is pointing to a correct playSMS daemon scripts path (in this example to /usr/local/bin)

  9. Start playsmsd now from Linux console, no need to reboot

    sudo playsmsd start

  10. Configure rc.local to get playsmsd started on boot

    Look for rc.local on /etc, /etc/init.d or /etc/rc.d/init.d

    When you found it edit that rc.local and put:

    /usr/local/bin/playsmsd start

    on the bottom of the file (before exit if theres an exit command).

    This way playsmsd will start automatically on boot.

Note:

  • After successful installation, please run command ps ax and see if playsmsd is running

    ps ax | grep playsms

  • Run several checks

    sudo playsmsd status
sudo playsmsd check

  • Stop here and review your installation steps when playsmsd is not running

  • Consider to ask question in playSMS forum when you encountered a problem

  • If all seems to be correctly installed you may try to login from web browser
