  1. My apache had errors until I added this to my .conf file

    try changing this:

         <Directory /var/www/html/processwire/>
              Options +FollowSymlinks
              AllowOverride All
              Require all granted
         </Directory>

    to this:

        <Directory /var/www/html/processwire/>
            AllowOverride all
            Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
            Require local
        </Directory>

    ServerName example.com

    Is that really the name of your virtualhost?

    Okay I reinstalled apache2 php7 mysql phpmyadmin from scratch, and freshly installed processwire-master. Everything looks okay up until the end. I can access the homepage but not the login page: 404, says /processwire/admin was not found on the server. I don't know whether it's supposed to include the localhost part there in the message but again the homepage itself is accessible.

    What do your apache logs say?

    Do you know where they are located?

    Did you follow my write-up from my sig? 

    Are you using virtualhosts?

    • I have phpMyAdmin on both the old and the new domains, in case this helps.
     

    Every time I see a mention of phpMyAdmin, I have to suggest Adminer https://www.adminer.org/

    It is a single page PHP file that totally replaces the need for phpMyAdmin. I have used it for years. The English only version is just 205kB.

    Just download, rename to index.php and upload to a new directory in your website www.yoursite.com/db and there ya go, instant access ?

    Linux Mint 19.1; Apache 2.2; PHP 5.6; MySQL 5.6.37

    Can you first attempt a default new PW install before trying to import your current one? 

    Linux Mint is Debian based. Check my signature. I have a detailed write-up on a LAMP install that will help you cover all the bases before you proceed.

    I've never used OSX so I wouldn't know about migrating this Dev site over.

    I followed the instructions to the letter, except for using my home directory, I used a different drive. At first I was getting 403s (maybe because disk had to be mounted first?). Now am getting this site cannot be reached.

    Yes, the disk must be mounted so your OS and www-data can see it.

    Test everything by setting a locally accessible directory in the file 

    /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

    Just to make sure that Apache and everything else is properly configured. Once you got that set, then try mounting the other drive.

  6. In recent posts, Kongondo has mentioned quite a bit about his use of Linux. I am certain there are other users of Linux here in the community forums of ProcessWire ???

    I have been a loyal user of FOSS and GNU Linux for as long as I can remember. Every single Android device I have owned has been rooted. My Linksys router runs DD-WRT. Every computer I have had has had some distribution of Linux at one time or another. 

    Back in the late 90's my ex-girlfriend gave me a big box set of Suse and another of RedHat. I have since then distro-hopped from those to Arch, Mandrake, Suse, everything *buntu and I settled on Crunchbang++ for a few years. I have yet to play with CentOS or Linux From Scratch (LFS) but that is on the horizon ?

    I have always preferred Debian and everything in its family tree, including Sparky. I just don't like XFCE nor LXDE. Openbox has always appealed to me, as well as i3wm.

     

    I finally got around, by special request by Kongondo, to share my LAMP set up. It's a file I have modded over the years but it remains pretty simple. I formatted it to MarkDown and threw it up on github for your viewing. I hope to help our growing community in something I kinda sorta know a bit about ?

    What might I do to resolve/troubleshoot this?

    We will need tons more details regarding your setup.

    Are you in Linux now? What distro? (Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Arch, etc.)
    Open a terminal and type in this command:

    lsb_release -a

    This one too, as it gives a different output:

    cat /proc/version

    What versions of Apache, PHP and MySQL? Do you know how to check? Copy/Paste this one-liner in your terminal:

    apache2 -version && mariadb --version && php --version

    What are the contents of `usr/local/ampps/www/mway/site/assets/logs/exceptions.txt?

    cat /usr/local/ampps/www/mway/site/assets/logs/exceptions.txt

     

    Do you have the proper permissions set up?

    ps: @OrganizedFellow, was that you who made the request to BL to port the CB welcome script  to BL? :-). If it was, thanks!

    Negative, wasn't I, perhaps some other organized fellow? lol

    it has a post-install script that runs and asks you if you want to install useful tools like a LAMP stack

    I always skipped that part of the set-up, as well as anything related to version control. I prefer to have full control of what I install. 

    And I also have VirtualHosts set up and working fully. If you should need help with that, let me know. I'll share the code/commands here ?

    Went with a derivative, BunsenLabs

    Thanks. I have now installed Sublime Text. I don't know where to find out though ;-). It's not showing up in the menus. run programme cannot find it as well. Any thing else I should do? Google is taking me down all sorts of rabbit holes...

    I ran Crunchbang++ for years. I loved it. It led me to plain Debian and I ran my own OpenBox configs and learned how to manage my own dotfiles.

    To run Sublime, do it from command line - 'sublime'.

    Good thing with Solus is that I was able to connect to WiFi and was able to use touch right of the bat. Hard to tell maybe, but do you know if Debian would be that friendly?

    Maybe not after a fresh install but it can be done:
    https://laptop.ninja/the-best-linux-distributions-for-touchscreens/
    This page https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-laptop-and-netbook-25/please-recommend-a-distro-for-a-tablet-pc-touchscreen-a-must-4175638233/ says "Touch screen support is in the Linux kernel. Any distro should work, as long as the technology of the touchscreen is in the mainstream of touch screens."
    This page  https://www.linuxinsider.com/story/81576.html states "Unity was designed with touchscreens in mind".

    The suggestion there is either Unity or Gnome (desktop environment).


    HOWEVER, just load up any Linux ISO as a LiveCD and it should automagically load the necessary 'drivers' to enable touch-screen.

    I have a Sublime Text license and wouldn't mind using it on this machine.

    While there are many ways of installing Sublime Text on Linux, here is my favorite.

    cd ~/Downloads/
    wget https://download.sublimetext.com/sublime_text_3_build_3200_x64.tar.bz2 
    tar xvjf sublime_text_3_build_3200_x64.tar.bz2
    sudo mv sublime_text_3/ /opt/
    sudo ln -s /opt/sublime_text_3/sublime_text /usr/local/bin/sublime
    sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/editor editor /usr/local/bin/sublime 90

    By the way: build_3200 is the latest version as of today. I just installed it myself and then went into VSCode and installed the extension Sublime Text Keymap and Settings Importer .

    I've used Sublime for years and just started VSCode. It is slow loading on this tiny Acer Chromebook (runs Debian + XFCE).

    If your 'low end touch device' runs slowly on Solus, it's most likely due to the visuals in KDE, GNOME or Mate desktop. I might suggest Debian with OpenBox. It is insanely minimal and super fast. I don't run it because of lacking support on this model.

    :-)....and your 3D printing?

    Cura is available for Linux, thank goodness for that.

    As for modeling? I suppose this gives me a reason to invest some learning time into Blender ?

    I don't like TinkerCad and while OnShape looks promising, I don't like having all my project files made public.

    gave up on Dbox

    I have abandoned Windows and gone back to Debian.

    From beginning to end, it took me about 15 minutes to get the docker container and dependencies running + database import and another 15-20 to get VSCode extensions set up. GOSH i missed my setup.

    I doubt I will return to Windoze ?

    Why not just use Chrome's built in password manager that syncs with your Google account? 

    Because I have over 80 passwords across multiple categories ?? 

    Some web services I use two different email addresses, so two different passwords.

    + having a Notes section helps.

  15. Sadly I doubt DevilBox would work on my machine. Requires Hyper-V and it is only available on Win PRO - I use Win Home ? 

    It looks like I am sticking with Laragon for the time being.

    120GB sounds a bit tight but if you don't do games or video/audio encoding, in fact if you just use the machine for coding for web development it should be fine.

    No gaming, at all, no graphic/video design nor editing. Also no MS Office and stuff.

    Occasionally I fire up Fusion360 for creating 3D models for 3D printing. Krita and MyPaint for graphic tablet drawing. Illustrator for vector design. That's all my graphical needs ?
    After reinstalling Win earlier this week, I have 75GB remaining. 

    I do have another 120GB SSD from an old Debian installation that I could format and use.
