1- How to install.
1.0 - Prerequisites
- Apache with PHP (>= 4.1 or >= 5.0) installed.
- OSSEC (version >= 0.9-3) already installed.
1.1- Clone the web ui script:
# git clone https://github.com/ossec/ossec-wui.git
1.2-Move the folder to somewhere acessible by
your web server:
# mv ossec-wui* /var/www/htdocs/ossec-wui
1.3- Run the setup script (assign username/password...):
# cd /var/www/htdocs/ossec-wui
# ./setup.sh
...
1.4- Add your web server user (apache, www-data or nobody) to the ossec group:
# vi /etc/group
..
From:
ossec:x:1002:
To (if your web server user is www-data):
ossec:x:1002:www-data
1.5- Fix the permissions for the tmp directory of your OSSEC installation (e.g., /var/ossec/tmp) and restart Apache
# chmod 770 tmp/
# chgrp www-data tmp/
# apachectl restart
1.5- If you have a large ossec install, you may want to
re-configure PHP to support longer lasting scripts
and higher memory utilization. The following entries
on php.ini can be increased:
max_execution_time = 180
max_input_time = 180
memory_limit = 30M
1.6- Try to access the UI.
