    What os are you using? If you have a recent centos/redhat/fedora droplet check firewalld to see if ports are open. firewall-cmd --list-ports (and --list-services) to check what ports are open.

    Is it my imagination, or has the volume of forum posts decreased since the forum software changeover? I know I'm not impressed, and I find the new layout harder to deal with from a desktop computer. For desktop users, I think vbulletin v4 was the last decently usable forum software

    Assuming you're usine Apache, it's better to use Options +Indexes, without the + you may reset other apache directives that are currently in effect. Take a look about 2/3 of the way down this page: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#options

    What push notifications does this new version of IPB use? Being old-schook, I normally open each forum in a new tab, then again open a new tab for each thread I want to view. Firefox 47 now gives a popup on each page "would you like to receive notifications from this site" Before I disable web notifications permanently, I'd like to know what notifications I won't be seeing.

    Well, if you want more wild guesses, do you have any filesystem quotas on your server?

    Maybe take a look at the php setting post_max_size. Just a wild guess.

    I've never had problems using the command-line mysqldump database_name > dumpfile.sql to create a dump sql file, then on the target machine mysql new_database_name < dumpfile.sql In the past phpmyadmin had given me problems with large sql files, probably because of php configured limits to the size of an http post.

    Thank you for the explanation. It would be nice if there was some processwire documentation that covered stuff like this instead of having to lurk/dig through years of forum posts

    I use w10 with xampp, cygwin, git-bash without any vm or container, and it seems to work quite well. I don't like or use Edge though.

    DigitalOcean VPS

    Doug G replied to monchu's topic in Pub

    I got a pretty minimal centos7 vps (1gb ram) and installed pw & mediawiki plus my personal git repository, and the whole digital ocean experience has been 100% positive for me.

    Here's what I did to install wireshell on windows 10 and xampp * Download composer-setup.exe and install it. Identify \utl\xampp\php\php.exe* composer global require wireshell/wireshell* Add %USERPROFILE\AppData\Roaming\Composer\vendor\bin to user PATH (in system properties, environment variables)* Run wireshell.

    Thanks for this.

    So out of curiosity, where does one find the documentation on $db and $database variables (other than lurking in forums)? Is reverse-engineering the php files the only way to see what these variables do? I have spent a lot of time in the processwire documentation area, but imho it's pretty much lacking in complete information. This lack of documentation is what's keeping me from really getting into using processwire. Also, is there a (long) one-page list of all processwire modules anywhere?

    I just set up a subdomain under my primary domain. Among other things I don't want to spend the bucks to register a ton of domain names $0.0000000000000000002

    Here is one list of linux-based web control panels, some free some not. http://www.tecmint.com/web-control-panels-to-manage-linux-servers/ EDIT: I just looked over the list and some of the packages are pretty out-of-date.

    I have a CentOS 7 droplet on Digital Ocean and have absolutely no complaints, I like that they use KVM I installed ispconfig3 control panel on my droplet and use it to do most of the server management tasks, and I also set up a remote personal git repo on the DO server.

    I had to uncomment the middle rewrite_base shown in .htaccess using xampp on windows 10. Yours appears to have an emedded space in the alias/directory name, maybe that's causing the rewrite to fail for you? Just guessing, but I'd try renaming the site alias without any space, and editing your .htaccess accordingly.

    Well, I know more about utf-8 and windows now. I figured out its a utf-8 heavy check mark code e2 9c 94 (thank you, vim) My google research hints it may be a windows/unicode/command line problem, apparently there are issues with the command line and unicode. I'm not going to worry about this minor glitch any longer.
  22. Doug G
    First, let me thank Marcus for wireshell. I have installed on both linux and windows machines, and I'm seeing a small glitch in windows. The little checkmark by superuser role in a user list doesn't display properly in windows but does on linux. How would I find out the keycode for the checkmark? When I look in the src for UserListCommand, I just see a non-printable box in windows, but see the checkbox in linux. My windows environment is using xampp and git-bash shell. I see the same garbage characters on w7 or w10, and in the dos command window, git-bash, or the xampp shell. tia,

    Thank you for this!

    If you use firefox check out the Textarea cache add-on. It's saved me many a time, particularly on sites where the session lifetime is on a short fuse.
