Create Database and User phpmyadmin and Grant Privilige
apt install mariadb-server
mysql_secure_installation
CREATE USER 'phpmyadmin'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'phpmyadmin123';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO ' phpmyadmin'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Step 15: Enable phpmyadmin
a2enconf phpmyadmin.conf
Step 14: Restart Apache
systemctl reload apache2
Step 5: Apache modules
sudo a2enmod rewrite
sudo a2enmod cgi
sudo service apache2 restart
Step 6: Create Library
koha-create --create-db koha
Step 7: Enable Modules and Site
sudo a2enmod deflate
sudo a2ensite library
sudo service apache2 restart
Step 8: Update Perl Module
1. cd /tmp/
2. wget http://download.koha-community.org/koha-latest.tar.gz Or Get Download link from Koha Website
3. tar -xvzf koha-latest.tar.gz
4. cd koha-latest
5. sudo dpkg --set-selections < install_misc/debian.packages
6. sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade
7. perl koha_perl_deps.pl -m -u
(This will list whether any Perl dependencies are missing or need a later version and whether they are required. You can then install them another way. such as sudo cpan Graphics::Magick CHI CHI::Driver::Memcached)
8. misc/sax_parser_print.pl
(You should see something like:
XML::LibXML::SAX::Parser=HASH(0x81fe220)
If you are configured to use PurePerl or Expat, the script will say you have a problem and
you'll need to edit your ini file to correct it.
The file is typically located at:
/etc/perl/XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini
The correct parser entry will need to be moved to the bottom of the file.
The following is the entry you are looking for:
[XML::LibXML::SAX::Parser]
http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces = 1)
Step 9: Update Apache Port /etc/apache2/ports.conf
Listen 80
Listen 8080
Then run your server such as http://servername:8080 (admin) or http://servername (user)
