It\u2019s a powerful tool that can be installed on various platforms, including Ubuntu 20.04. In this guide, we\u2019ll show you how to install and configure Taiga on Ubuntu 20.04. Whether you&#8217;re using a  or another server solution, these instructions will guide you through the process.<\/p>\n<h2>Prerequisites<\/h2>\n<p>Before you begin, make sure you have the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>An Ubuntu 20.04 server. This could be hosted on a <a href=\"https:\/\/ie.netcloud24.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow\">UK Windows VPS<\/a> or any other <a href=\"https:\/\/ie.netcloud24.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow\">Windows VPSVirtual Private Server Hosting<\/a> environment.<\/li>\n<li>Root or sudo privileges.<\/li>\n<li>Basic understanding of terminal commands.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Step 1: Update Your System<\/h2>\n<p>Start by updating your system\u2019s packages to ensure that everything is up-to-date. Run the following command:<\/p>\n<pre><code>sudo apt update &amp;&amp; sudo apt upgrade<\/code><\/pre>\n<h2>Step 2: Install Required Dependencies<\/h2>\n<p>Taiga requires some dependencies to be installed on your server. Install them by running the following command:<\/p>\n<pre><code>sudo apt install -y postgresql postgresql-contrib python3-pip python3-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev libpq-dev nginx npm git curl<\/code><\/pre>\n<h2>Step 3: Install Taiga Backend<\/h2>\n<p>Next, clone the Taiga backend repository from GitHub and install its dependencies. Run the following commands:<\/p>\n<pre><code>cd \/home\r\ngit clone https:\/\/github.com\/taigaio\/taiga-back.git taiga-back\r\ncd taiga-back\r\ngit checkout stable<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>Install Python dependencies for Taiga:<\/p>\n<pre><code>sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt<\/code><\/pre>\n<h2>Step 4: Configure PostgreSQL for Taiga<\/h2>\n<p>Now, configure PostgreSQL for Taiga. Create a new PostgreSQL user and database for Taiga:<\/p>\n<pre><code>sudo -u postgres psql\r\nCREATE USER taiga WITH PASSWORD 'your_password';\r\nCREATE DATABASE taiga OWNER taiga;\r\n\\q<\/code><\/pre>\n<h2>Step 5: Configure Taiga Backend<\/h2>\n<p>Copy the sample configuration file and edit it to set up your database credentials:<\/p>\n<pre><code>cp ~\/taiga-back\/settings\/local.py.example ~\/taiga-back\/settings\/local.py\r\nnano ~\/taiga-back\/settings\/local.py<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>Update the database section with your PostgreSQL credentials.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 6: Install and Configure Taiga Frontend<\/h2>\n<p>Clone the Taiga frontend repository and install its dependencies:<\/p>\n<pre><code>cd \/home\r\ngit clone https:\/\/github.com\/taigaio\/taiga-front-dist.git taiga-front\r\ncd taiga-front\r\nnpm install\r\ncp ~\/taiga-front\/dist\/conf.example.json ~\/taiga-front\/dist\/conf.json<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>Edit the <code>conf.json<\/code> file to point to your backend API.<\/p>\n<h2>Step 7: Set Up Nginx<\/h2>\n<p>To serve Taiga through a domain, configure Nginx. Create a new Nginx configuration file for Taiga:<\/p>\n<pre><code>sudo nano \/etc\/nginx\/sites-available\/taiga<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>Add the following configuration:<\/p>\n<pre><code>server {\r\n    listen 80;\r\n    server_name your-domain.com;\r\n\r\n    location \/ {\r\n        proxy_pass http:\/\/127.0.0.1:8000;\r\n        proxy_set_header Host $host;\r\n        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;\r\n        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;\r\n        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;\r\n    }\r\n\r\n    location \/static {\r\n        alias \/home\/taiga-front\/dist;\r\n    }\r\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>Save the file and activate the configuration:<\/p>\n<pre><code>sudo ln -s \/etc\/nginx\/sites-available\/taiga \/etc\/nginx\/sites-enabled\/\r\nsudo systemctl restart nginx<\/code><\/pre>\n<h2>Step 8: Run Taiga<\/h2>\n<p>Run Taiga\u2019s backend and frontend using the following commands:<\/p>\n<pre><code>cd ~\/taiga-back\r\npython3 manage.py runserver\r\ncd ~\/taiga-front\r\nnpm start<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>Your Taiga project management system should now be accessible from your browser. If you&#8217;re using a  or <a href=\"https:\/\/ie.netcloud24.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow\">Microsoft SQL VPS Windows<\/a>, you should configure domain settings accordingly.<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>By following these steps, you should now have a fully functioning Taiga project management system running on Ubuntu 20.04.
