Orange Human Resources Management (OrangeHRM) aims to be the world’s leading open source HRM solution for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) by providing a flexible and easy to use HRM system affordable for any company worldwide. The project was started during fall 2005 and the first beta release was made in January 2006. Today OrangeHRM has users worldwide enjoying a free, stable and highly usable HRM solution
In this Howto, we will not install OrangeHRM into ibays but into /opt/orangehrm instead.
OrangeHRM needs PHP5 … too bad smeserver 7.2 have php4 installed and you are advised not to upgrade to PHP5 because it will broke SMEServer system. But don’t worry, based on this howto : http://sme.firewall-services.com/spip.php?article46 you can add PHP5 as cgi .
Step 1. Install php5 as cgi
mkdir php5-cgi
cd php5-cgi
wget http://sme.firewall-services.com/downloads/php5-cgi/php5-cgi-5.1.2-1.sp.i386.rpm
wget http://sme.firewall-services.com/downloads/php5-cgi/php5-cgi-imap-5.1.2-1.sp.i386.rpm
wget http://sme.firewall-services.com/downloads/php5-cgi/php5-cgi-ldap-5.1.2-1.sp.i386.rpm
wget http://sme.firewall-services.com/downloads/php5-cgi/php5-cgi-mysql-5.1.2-1.sp.i386.rpm
wget http://sme.firewall-services.com/downloads/php5-cgi/php5-cgi-pear-5.1.2-1.sp.i386.rpm
wget http://sme.firewall-services.com/downloads/php5-cgi/php5-cgi-xmlrpc-5.1.2-1.sp.i386.rpm
yum localinstall ./*.rpm
you can ignore post-upgrade and reboot process
mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
pico /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/80php5-cgi
then paste below into 80php5-cgi template fragment
ScriptAlias /php5-cgi /usr/bin/php5
<Directory /usr/bin/php5>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
Options ExecCGI
</Directory>
[Ctrl-X] : Y : [Enter]
Step 2. Install OrangeHRM
wget http://optusnet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/orangehrm/orangehrm-2.2.2.tar.gz
tar xfvz orangehrm-2.2.2.tar.gz
mv orangehrm-2.2.2 /opt/orangehrm
chown -R www:www /opt/orangehrm
pico /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/90orangehrmpaste below to the terminal
Alias /orangehrm /opt/orangehrm
<Directory /opt/orangehrm>
AddHandler php5-cgi .php
Action php5-cgi /php5-cgi/php
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride all
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
php_admin_value open_basedir /opt/orangehrm
</Directory>
Ctrl-X : Y : [Enter]
Expand the template and restart httpd
expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
svc -t /service/httpd-e-smith
create mysql user and privileges
mysql -e "grant all privileges on *.* to orangehrmuser@localhost identified by 'yourpassword' WITH GRANT OPTION"
mysql -e "flush privileges"
Enable InnoDB, smeserver disable it by default
db configuration setprop mysqld InnoDB enabled
Do post-upgrade and reboot
signal-event post-upgrade
signal-event reboot
Point your web browser to http://[smeserver IP]/orangehrm
Follow the instructions on screen..
Privileged database Username : orangehrmuser
Privileged database User password : yourpassword
You can ignore "Memory alocated for PHP Script warning"..
Actually I want to write this into Howto wiki, but until now my access to edit wiki has not granted by the developers/doc team
I think it is enough to share in this forum until I have access to edit the wiki.
-
Thanx for this!
-
Please put the OrangeHRM part in the wiki (http://wiki.contribs.org). You do not need to put the PHP5 section there as the installation procedure is already outlined in the link you supplied in you post.

Cactus,

Thanks for bringing this application to my attention - this is great. I'm trying the install, but I'm unable to add employees. I go into the PIM module, and when I click add, nothing happens. Are there any log files or anything I can check?
Thanks!
Rob
-
Installation went Fine.
All the OrangeHRM Modules are working except for the PIM Module. Whan I want to add an Employee all I get is a white screen. I have asked for help on the Orange HRM Forum but with no reply.
Please Help
I need to get this Module working Urgently.
-
Please guys any help on the PIM Module. I cannot enter any Data as it just Displays a White Screen. Please advise what I need to do? :(
-
Ok no Problem I solved it. :)
Working GREAT

Bud
This is the same problem I'm having - How did you fix it?
Thanks

Hi Guys
I just found out that the OrangeHRM wont display information in a default install of Mozilla Firefox, that is I cant edit the Company name etc..open it in IE and it works....
...bugger...

crobruncato
Ok this is what I did.
Notice what thomasch said about during the Installation. He mentioned "You can ignore "Memory alocated for PHP Script warning "
According to the OrangeHRM Developers they Recommend that you allocate 16M per Module to get the Application (PIM etc.) to work Correctly. As the Application is by Default installed to use 8M per Module this is what the Problem is.
I would like to thank " thomasch " though for doing all the Leg Work in showing what needs to be done to get this Application to work on the SME Server.
Follow these Steps, As we are installing "php5" we need to edit Just ONE File.
Use PuTTY or WinSCP and EDIT the File " /etc//php5/php.ini "
On about Line 304 (The Heading will say Resource Limits) change " memory_limit = 8M " to " memory_limit = 32M "
I set mine to 32M and am having NO Problems. You can Change yours to 16M or whatever works for you.
Hope this Helps
-
That confuses me...
So if we keep the MEM=8M, it works in IE, only when I raise it to 32M does it work in Firefox??

Bud - Thanks! I'll give it a try.

Hi,
I do not use OrangeHRM on daily basis and my installation of OrangeHRM went away with my old server.
I am pretty busy with my job (I have a company to run). So, I can't check the correctness of the page.
Any correction/addition to the wiki are welcome.
All I can do to maintain the howto now is add a link of this forum topic to the wiki page.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Have a look at the logfiles, you will most likely find a clue in the /var/log/httpd/error_log or acccess_log files.

what now?
According to the above you seem to not use a SSL connection, eg. using https://. What is the full URL you are using to access your installation?

cactus thanks for the quick response
whether i use http://myserverIP/orangehrm/ or https://myserverip/orangehrm/ i still get the same error

Did anything change in the logfiles? What do they say when you access the site over https? Please keep in mind that we are not behind your server. :-)

cactus thanks again, sorry i should have given you the error log info ( /var/log/httpd/error_log )
this is the last entry in the log after i tried to " https://myserverip/orangehrm/ "

No not really as it has no context. Please post a little more of the error_log file, the part leading up to this as well as a snippet of the access_log file from around the same time.

It seems you have lost the SSL error so we are already one step further. Unfortunately the premature end of script header is a very general one. Please follow the instructions from this link (http://wiki.contribs.org/PHP#Display_Error_Messages). It will configure PHP to display a more extensive error message in your browser, perhaps we can gain some more information from that.
Please retry to access the site after you have followed the instructions and post back any errors displayed in your browser.

cactus thanks for the info

cactus thanks for the info

And did you access your website? Did it output anything to the browser? What you just posted is just the result of your webserver starting up.

Pffff... not sure what is happening here. Can you look if there is anything listed in /var/log/messages perhaps? I am out of clues, but somehow we need to find what is causing the internal server error.

cactus thanks for your help
will start with new sme server and go from there
