Journyx Timesheet
Journyx Timesheet
Introduction
Journyx is a Timesheet and Expenses application for tracking time, allocating resources and executing projects. It is free to use for up to 10 users. More info on the Journyx website.
The application is designed to run within a users account, and has its own apache web server and postgres database. It cannot be installed as root, and the user name of the account under which it is installed becomes the installing administrative account. It is recommended to create a new specific standard user account specifically for Timesheet. Multiple instances of Timesheet can be run by creating multiple standard users and installing. The apache web server runs on a specific port configured during installation. This can be changed later.
Installation
User Account
Create a standard user account in SME Server Manager panel, with a meaningful user name. Don't forget this user name becomes the administrative user for the application.
SME Server - Collaboration - Users - Add User Account Account Name - jtime Fill in the rest of the information as applicable Add Reset Password
For ease of administration the newly created user needs to be able to login remotely, using putty or similar and get a command prompt. This is probably easiest achieved by installing the Remote User Access contrib from Dungog. Then
SME Server - Security - Remote User Access Modify the jtime user Shell Access - /bin/bash Sudo Access - yes RSSH+VPN Access - yes Save
Download and Unpack
Download the application package from Download page. You will have to register, but no hard sell. Save the package to the home directory of the new jtime user. Choose the package for the latest version of Redhat available. Login as the newly created jtime user.
gunzip < JournyxTimesheet_78_Linux_i386_glibc_2.3_REDHAT9_to_RHAS4.tar.gz | tar xvf -
This should create a directory called jtime and unpack all of the files.
