In this post, you will learn how to install the EGroupware community server
Groupware is a free, open-source groupware software intended for businesses from small to enterprises. Its primary functions allow users to manage contacts, appointments, projects, and to-do lists.
- Prepare OS and Install Pre-Requisites
Prepare OS and install docker on it. In this article, I am using Ubuntu 22.04
Create repository file for Linux distribution.
# echo 'deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/eGroupWare/xUbuntu_22.04/ /' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/server:eGroupWare.list
# sudo apt install gnupg # required, but not installed by apt-key add in Debian 10/11
# wget -nv https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:eGroupWare/xUbuntu_22.04/Release.key -O - | sudo apt-key add - | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/server:eGroupWare.asc
# sudo apt update
install the EGroupware community server
# apt install egroupware-docker
Check the status of app containers
# docker ps
Open the browser
http://your server IP
For Username and password
# cat /var/lib/egroupware/egroupware-docker-install.log
to integrate rocket.chat needs configuration and will create another post for integration of rocket.chat.
Done!!!
Hi Fazal.
Thank you for describing the installation of EGroupware here. However, I still have some comments:
It is not necessary to install Docker beforehand. The EGroupware installation takes care of this and installs the correct(!) version.
Installing Docker beforehand can cause problems under certain circumstances.

Rocket.Chat can be installed directly on the EGroupware server:
https://github.com/EGroupware/egroupware/wiki/Rocketchat-Integration
The installation then integrates Rocket.Chat directly into EGroupware. Including authentication via OAuth.
