INVESTIGATION 2: INSTALL, CONFIGURE & RUN WEBMAIL APPLICATION (Roundcube Mail)
'''Perform the following steps on vm1:'''
*#Perform a search on the roundcube application in order to access the website.*#Either Download the "zipped tarball" from their website from a direct link or use the wget command to download directly from a download link (This part may take some effort depending on the Sourceforge website).*#Extract the "zipped tarball" and rename the generated directory that contains download source code to: '''webmail'''.
::* Use the '''--no-same-owner''' option when extracting the tar achive to ensure that the files do not keep the original owner (who will not exist on your system).
*#Change the ownership of the '''temp''' and '''logs''' directories so they belong to apache.*#This service needs to be able to write to several directories ('''temp''' and '''logs''') that SELinux prevents write access to. If you are in a section that has SELinux set to '''enforcing''', run the
following commands to let it know that apache should be allowed to write to files in those directories.
<source lang="bash">
</source>
::*If your machine does not have the semage command, use yum to install the policycoreutils-python package.
*#In the directory now named "webmail", there will be a file named '''INSTALL''' which will walk you through the rest of the Roundcube installation.<br /><br />Some installation tips to consider:
::* Be careful about copying &amp; pasting the MySQL setup part: take time and pay attention to detail: do not try to "rush it".
