Installation

From tarball

Prerequisites:

  • Apache or another web server

  • php (>=7.4)

  • php-curl (haveibeenpwned api)

  • php-filter

  • php-gd (captcha)

  • php-ldap

  • php-mbstring (reset mail)

  • php-openssl (token crypt, probably built-in)

  • Smarty (version >=3)

Tarball can be downloaded from LTB project website.

Uncompress and unarchive the tarball:

tar -zxvf ltb-project-self-service-password-*.tar.gz

Install files in /usr/share/:

mv ltb-project-self-service-password-* /usr/share/self-service-password

Adapt ownership of Smarty cache repositories so Apache user can write into them. For example:

chown apache:apache /usr/share/self-service-password/cache
chown apache:apache /usr/share/self-service-password/templates_c

Debian / Ubuntu

Warning

You need to install first the package smarty3. If you face the error syntax error, unexpected token "class", try to install a newer version of the package:

# dpkg -i smarty3_3.1.47-2_all.deb

vi /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ltb-project.list

deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/ltb-project.gpg] https://ltb-project.org/debian/stable stable main

Import repository key:

Docker

We provide an official Docker image.

Prepare a local configuration file, for example ssp.conf.php.

<?php // My SSP configuration
$keyphrase = "mysecret";
$debug = true;
?>

Start container, mounting that configuration file:

docker run -p 80:80 \
    -v $PWD/ssp.conf.php:/var/www/conf/config.inc.local.php \
    -it docker.io/ltbproject/self-service-password:latest
