I was setting up an Open Journal Systems (#OJS) [1] instance, to be used to host three University of Zambia [2] journals which will be managed by the Directorate of Research and Graduate Studies [3].

Seeing as I was not involved with the installation of the server operating system, I anticipated that I would stumble upon some issues, so I decided to record the session.

The installation was done on a machine running Ubuntu 18.04
I did not record the session when I was installing prerequisite software tools: Apache, MySQL, and PHP
Towards the end, I also install the #Bootstrap 3 theme [4]

Here is to hoping people out there will find the screencast useful without voiceover!
