  • The installer will interactively guide you through the steps of installing opReports. Please make sure to read the on-screen prompts carefully.
  • When the installer finishes, opReports is installed into /usr/local/omk, and the default configuration files are in /usr/local/omk/conf, ready for your initial config adjustments.
  • A detailed log of the installation process is saved as /usr/local/omk/install.log, and subsequent upgrades or installations of other Opmantek products will add to that logfile.
  • For detailed information about the interactive installer please check the Opmantek Installer page.

Initial Setup

opReports works almost  completely "out of the box" and requires just a very few configuration settings to be adjusted initially:

...

If you want to run scheduled reports very frequently, then the default frequency for the opReports scheduler may be insufficient.
By default opReports installs a cron file (in /etc/cron.d/opreports) which runs opreports-scheduler.pl once per hour. Feel free to modify that cron file to your liking.

PDF Reports

If you require the ability to generate reports as PDF documents then the wkhtmltopdf binary must be available on your system. This should be installed alongside opReports on Debian based systems but you may need to install it manually by searching your system's package manager repositories for wkhtmltopdf, wkhtmltox or alternatively from https://wkhtmltopdf.org/downloads.html.

Upgrade to version 4.2.0 and later.
