[HOW] OCS : enable captcha

,

This topic is just sharing.
I just setup OCS on my ubuntu server. By default the system does not enable captcha on user registration process. Enable this captcha should prevent auto registration by spam/bootware.
Step by step :

install required modules

sudo apt-get install php5-gd fontconfig

edit configuration file

sudo nano ~./ocs/config.inc.php
[captcha]

edit font source location from

font_location = /usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeSerif.ttf
to
font_location = /usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSerif-Bold.ttf

cd /usr/share/fonts/
fc-cache

restart your apache

sudo service apache2 restart

if you want to use FreeSerif.ttf of another font, you can download from here then send over file transfer to your server.
