OpenSUSE Software Pre-Installation (Podman)

Before installing Megaladata, you must first install and configure the necessary software.

This guide was tested on OpenSUSE 15.4. Note that as of March 2026, OpenSUSE Leap 16.0 is the latest stable release (released October 1, 2025). OpenSUSE Leap 15.4 reached its end of life on December 7, 2023.

Complete the following steps:

1. Install the required packages.

    sudo zypper install -y podman podman-compose cni-plugin-dnsname
   

2. Allow the dnsmasq process to open the necessary files.

    echo "/run/user/*/containers/cni/dnsname/*/dnsmasq.conf r, /run/user/*/containers/cni/dnsname/*/addnhosts r, /run/user/*/containers/cni/dnsname/*/pidfile rw," | sudo tee -a "/etc/apparmor.d/local/usr.sbin.dnsmasq"
   
    sudo apparmor_parser -r /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.dnsmasq
   

3. Allow Podman to use ports starting from 80 in unprivileged mode.

    grep -q "net.ipv4.ip_unprivileged_port_start=80" "/etc/sysctl.conf" || echo "net.ipv4.ip_unprivileged_port_start=80" | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf
   
    sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_unprivileged_port_start=80
   

4. Allow the user session to remain active after the user logs out.

   sudo loginctl enable-linger
