opConfig is distributed in a self-extracting download format that simplifies the installation process quite a bit. More information on running the installer can be found HERE: The Opmantek Installer

Transfer the opConfig installer file onto the server in question, either by direct download from the Opmantek website, or from your desktop with scp or sftp or a similar file transfer tool.

  • Start the interactive installer and follow its instructions:

    sudo sh ./opConfig-Linux-x86_64-4.0.0.run
    ...

    opConfig (4.0.0) Installation script

    ...
    This installer will install opConfig into /usr/local/omk.
    To select a different installation location please rerun the
    installer with the -t option.


  • The installer will interactively guide you through the steps of installing opConfig. Please make sure to read the on-screen prompts carefully. Also, a preconfigured file can be used. 
  • When the installer finishes, opConfig 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.

Database Setup

open conf/opCommon.nmis in an editor, go to the database section and change the server, username and password to reflect your MongoDB installation.
The result should look similar to the following (but there might be extra settings related to other products):
