Self-hosted work package and project planning 17.9.6 (GPL-3.0) with PostgreSQL on Ubuntu 24.04: HTTPS, the first-run setup completed for you with a generated administrator, no sign-up page.
Overview
This AMI runs a self-hosted work package and project planning application on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, with PostgreSQL and a background worker inside the same container. Version 17.9.6 is pinned and pre-installed in the AMI. Teams plan work packages, Gantt-style schedules, boards and team collaboration in one place.
What Perimattic adds
Administrator created for you: a random 24-character password is generated on your server and the one administrator account is created during first-login setup, through the application's own console, before the site is published. Self-registration stays off and two-factor enrollment is not forced on you. Apache provides HTTPS with a free Let's Encrypt certificate for your domain.
Limits you should know
This is the open-source edition; add-ons that need a paid licence token are not included and their banners in the user interface are inactive. No mail server is configured, so invitation and notification emails cannot be sent until you add SMTP settings. The database and attachments live on the root volume; back them up or snapshot before upgrades. A t3.medium (4 GB) is the recommended starting size; the application used about 2 GB of memory in our tests.
Licence and attribution
Built on the open-source OpenProject (GPL-3.0). The image is unmodified and contains no separately licensed or paid components beyond the locked Enterprise add-ons described above; the source is at github.com/opf/openproject. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by OpenProject GmbH; OpenProject is a trademark of its owner.
Getting Started Launch the AMI and open ports 22, 80 and 443 in the security group SSH in and answer the setup prompts (domain and admin email) Open https://your-domain and sign in as admin with the password printed at the end of setup Create a project and start adding work packages
A domain name with an A record pointing at the instance is required, because the site is served over HTTPS.
This AMI is built and supported by Perimattic.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
Version release notes
Initial release.
- Application: Work Package Project Planning 17.9.6 (container image pinned, baked into the AMI).
- Base: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, fully patched at build time, built by an automated EC2 Image Builder pipeline.
- TLS: Apache reverse proxy with a Let's Encrypt certificate requested by certbot at first login.
- Credentials are generated on the instance at first login; none are present in the image.
- The vendor's default administrator (admin / admin) is replaced during first-login setup, before the site is published: a random 24-character administrator password is generated on the instance, through the application's own console, and setup verifies that the password works, that wrong and default logins are refused, that exactly one account exists, that self-registration is off and that anonymous API calls are refused.
- Application: upstream work package and project planning application 17.9.6 (GPL-3.0, unmodified all-in-one image) with PostgreSQL 17 and a background worker, all inside one container (pinned). The application secret is generated per instance; cookies are secure; two-factor enrollment is off by default so the generated administrator is not locked out; the update-check and Enterprise-trial hosts are blocked. See the product description for the licence and attribution notice.
- No SMTP is configured; there is no sign-up page. The health, login and read-only configuration pages are public by design.
- Database: PostgreSQL inside the container, reachable only from inside it.
Additional details
Usage instructions
-
Launch an Instance
From AWS Marketplace, click Continue to Subscribe and then Continue to Configuration to launch the AMI.
-
Choose the Recommended Instance Type
t3.medium (4 GB of memory) is the recommended starting size: the application used about 2 GB in our tests, PostgreSQL and the background worker included. Choose t3.large or larger for many concurrent users or large portfolios.
-
Configure Security Group
Allow inbound traffic on the following ports:
- 22 (SSH) - terminal access for setup
- 80 (HTTP) - needed to validate your domain for the TLS certificate
- 443 (HTTPS) - access to Work Package Project Planning
-
Point a domain at the instance
Create a DNS A record (for example projects.example.com) pointing to the instance's public IP before you log in.
-
Connect to the Instance
ssh -i <your-key.pem> ubuntu@<public-ip>
-
First-Login Setup
The first SSH login runs a guided setup:
- Prompts for your domain and admin email and checks the DNS A record
- Generates a random 24-character administrator password and a 128-character application secret on your server
- Starts the application and completes first-run database setup, then replaces the vendor's default administrator through the application's own console with the generated credentials
- Checks that the generated password works, that wrong and default logins are refused, that self-registration is off and that anonymous API calls are refused
- Configures Apache as an HTTPS reverse proxy and requests a Let's Encrypt certificate
- Prints the URL and the administrator credentials; they are also stored in /opt/app/access.txt (root only)
If a step fails, fix the problem shown and log in again: the setup resumes where it stopped.
-
Access Work Package Project Planning
Open https://<your-domain> and sign in as admin with the generated password (view it again with: sudo cat /opt/app/access.txt). Create a project and start adding work packages.
-
Credentials
Generated on your server, never shared between customers. View them again with:
sudo cat /opt/app/access.txt
-
Manage the Services
cd /opt/app sudo docker compose ps sudo docker compose restart
The database is in /opt/app/pgdata (PostgreSQL inside the container, reachable only from inside it) and attachments are in /opt/app/assets. The application secret in /opt/app/.env encrypts stored values and must be kept with your backups. Back up all of /opt/app or take EBS snapshots (stop the stack first for a consistent copy). No email can be sent until you add SMTP settings on the app service in /opt/app/docker-compose.yml. The health and login pages are public by design, as is the read-only /api/v3/configuration endpoint the sign-in page itself depends on. The paid Enterprise add-ons are locked behind a licence token that is not included; the application's update checks and the Enterprise trial service are blocked from this server. This listing relies on factual use of the upstream name in the attribution notice only; the product is not affiliated with its vendor.
