Linfo is a simple PHP application that displays information about the host it's running on. It's similar to Phpsysinfo.

The following stuff is shown

  • CPU Type
  • RAM Usage
  • PCI/USB devices
  • Hard drives
  • File system mounts
  • Network devices
  • Temps/Voltages via hddtemp/mbmon
  • Software raid arrays (either by mdadm or gmirror)
  • System load / number of processes, threads
  • Linux distribution, if possible

Install lighttpd and PHP

Basic Installation

For installing the additional packages first activate community packages and update the package index

Install the required packages:

# apk add lighttpd php82 fcgi php82-cgi

Configure Lighttpd

Edit lighttpd.conf (/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf) and uncomment the line:

Contents of /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf

... include "mod_fastcgi.conf" ...

Edit mod_fastcgi.conf (/etc/lighttpd/mod_fastcgi.conf), find and change /usr/bin/php-cgi to /usr/bin/php-cgi82.

Contents of /etc/lighttpd/mod_fastcgi.conf

... "bin-path" => "/usr/bin/php-cgi82" # php-cgi ...

Start lighttpd service and add it to default runlevel

# rc-service lighttpd start # rc-update add lighttpd default

Installation of Linfo

Create a directory named webapps

mkdir -p /usr/share/webapps/

Now get the current release of Linfo.

cd /usr/share/webapps/ wget https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/linfo/Linfo%20Stable%20Releases/linfo-2.0.3.tar.gz

Unpack the archive in the current location and remove the archive afterwards.

tar -xzf linfo-2.0.3.tar.gz && rm linfo-2.0.3.tar.gz && mv linfo-2.0.3 linfo

A config.inc.php is needed to run Linfo. The fastest way is to make a copy of the template file.

cp linfo/sample.config.inc.php linfo/config.inc.php

Create a symlink that point to the webserver directory.

ln -s /usr/share/webapps/linfo/ /var/www/localhost/htdocs/linfo

Change the permission of the directory.

chmod -R 777 /usr/share/webapps/

Restart lighttpd

rc-service lighttpd restart

Now the page is up and running
