Ubuntu Servers :: Get Wordpress To Work With Lighttpd And Wordpress Hostname

Jun 27, 2010

I'm trying to get wordpress to work with lighttpd and my home test server... <name>.dnsalias.org as my IP is not static... When I install wordpress ( via apt-get ) and set it up through install script like this:

bash /usr/share/doc/wordpress/examples/setup-mysql -n wordpress <name>.dnsalias.org It is accessible from outside of my network but not from local one where the sever ip is 10.0.0.200 From outside it is using correctly domain <name>.dnsalias.org but from inside when I try to use ip 10.0.0.200 from other pc on net it will not work..a s it still using <name>.dnsalias.org in all links... Also I would like to have it in <name>.dnsalias.org/wordpress as I have another test site in <name>.dnsalias.org/<test_Site> which by thee way works from inside and outside of my network.... its just wordpress ...

I have followed this guide: [URL] but its for apache... I spend whole night searching for some solution and now I'm dead tired and you are my last hope ...( ....Obi Wan Kenobi ) So does someone running wordpress in setup like I described above, if yes

Ubuntu :: Open Local Install Of Wordpress Through Firewall?

May 25, 2011

I have a local install of Wordpress and I've added a port forward rule in my firewall to share our site with family and friends (we're using a members only plugin). I have a DYNDNS account and my router automatically updates with this account.The problem I'm having is when I test accessing our local site from outside my network. I use my dyndns account name and port number to access my local Wordpress, I can see the login screen but once I login, the url changes from my dyndns name to the IP Address of my local server and then I never see any pages on my site.

I'm thinking it has something to do with either the WordPress address (URL) or the Site address (URL) since they currently have the ip address of my local ubuntu server that hosts our Wordpress site.So what have I configured incorrectly here?

General :: Set Wordpress Permissions On Server

Mar 9, 2011

I have question regarding setting permissions on wp-content/uploads... in wordpres. I read a tutorial where they want you to set permissions: chown -R julie.julie uploads/ chmod -R 777 uploads/ 777 makes it rwx for others as well. It's not secure! It works but is temporary fix. How I can make sure that the user julie (wordpress) will be able to write to it but anybody else wont.

General :: What Is The Filename - Including Path - Of A WordPress Database

Jun 17, 2011

I have local Wordpress database that got corrupt as a result of an abrupt power outage (I wasn't even editing it!).

Since the system I am dealing with is pretty static (and old), I just want to restore that database file (or collection of files) from a nightly backup.

But I don't know which files I should be restoring. The WordPress blog in question is installed under a local user account in an old Linux server (FC4).

I checked the wp-content directory, but apparently this is not where the content is:

Any idea which file(s) I should be restoring and what their path is?

General :: Change The Wordpress Theme For Which It Askes For FTP Credentials?

Feb 6, 2010

This is my first post so quite fitting it should a pretty stupid question. I have a CentOS server to which I have installed mysql/apache/vsftpd/php5 and wordpress. I can ftp in using the ftp account (i changed the password) but it cannot create directories/files. Im trying to change the wordpress theme for which it askes for FTP credentials and when I put them in i get this error Could not create directory /var/www/html/wordpress/wp-content/upgrade/midnight-blue.tmp

I am guessing this is either a permissions problem on the user side or a directory permissions/ownership issue, but i have no clue where to start on this.

Server :: Wordpress Asking For Ftp Credentials?

Jun 19, 2011

I host a number of sites and recently migrated to a new server (both old and new are running Ubuntu 10.04 [I only upgrade my web server when there is a new LTS release]). After the migration, Wordpress is asking for ftp credentials to update plugins, which it never used to do. I'm certain this is user/group/permissions related, but because of the new setup, I'm not sure what these should be set to.

On the previous server, each site was a subdirectory of /var/www/ and everything was owned by www-data. This wasn't the best setup, since it meant my users didn't have direct access to their own sites. In the new setup, each page I host is in /home/username/www/. Consequently, all the files are owned by 'username'.

My guess is that Wordpress' request for ftp credentials stems from a conflict between the apache2 user and the usernames that own the sites. Is this accurate? If so, how do I rectify this?

Debian :: .htaccess And Wordpress Getting 404 Error

May 17, 2010

I run Debian 5.4 with ISP Manager as CP. I put a .htaccess in the root directory of my wordpress blog. The content of the .htaccess is:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

[Code]....

But after I created a static page and change permalinks in wordpress with anything other than standard I get a browser 404 error (not 404 error with template).
Location of the blog content that is shown in CP: /var/www/sorin/data/sitename.ro Only the index of the blog is loading. What can I do? I have Debian up-to-date.

Fedora Servers :: WordPress Can't Upload?

Jun 18, 2009

But I can't upload files or pictures all the time.Everytime I tried to upload , it tips me : "can't create file or folder ...... . is its parents folder writable by the server?"Now it's considered as a bug.But I tried 3 methods introduced on the net . But none of them worked. They are : 1: change the folder permission to 777 , not work for me.2: change the URL to "wp-content/uploads" not "/wp-content/uploads" , not work for me.3: use full url not "wp-content/uploads" also not work.

Server :: Securing Wordpress With Htaccess ?

May 16, 2011

I have a blog on my site and am using htaccess rewrite rules to block all those nasty scripts from trying to execute various things mostly relating to phpmyadmin and wordpress. This has reduced my httpd error logs to less than half from before.

Am trying to come up with a rule to rewrite all calls to certain files if they are not originating from my domain, here is how it looks right now but it's not working as I can see scripts trying to hit "wp-comments-post.php" getting a 500 Internal Server Error.

Server :: Administer Wordpress From Different Host On Same LAN?

Feb 7, 2011

I have a web server with LAMP and wordpress on it. I'm going to administer wordpress from a different host on the same LAN as the server (the server doesn't have X and desktop software on it). When you build a site, with wordpress, from a separate admin host what exactly is happening?. Do browser requests from the admin host go to the web server, then out to the Internet, then back to the web server, then the results get displayed back to the browser on the admin host?. Or does it work differently?. Will such a set up work automatically after the installation and basic configuration of LAMP and wordpress on the web server?.

Software :: Get Sqlite3 Working With Wordpress 2.9.2?

Mar 20, 2010

I am running Debian 5.0 (Lenny). I am trying to get Wordpress 2.9.2 to work with Sqlite3. I hear Sqlite is a better database server than MySql because it is lighter on resources and is much smaller. I am very new to Sqlite3, however, so I'm not totally sure what to do here. In my wp-config.php file (the Wordpress configuration file), I've set the database name and user name, and such. Now, I think I know how to create a database, but from that point forward, I'm lost. How do I add the password for Wordpress to access the database. By the way, I made a regular Unix user, called sqlite, for all Sqlite things.

CentOS 5 :: Not Sending Some Mail Through Wordpress?

Dec 23, 2010

I am very new to CentOS and running a server in general. I managed to get a server setup with CentOS, and it's running a wordpress driven social networking site. Everything is fine except sometimes my server won't send registration/activation emails to some email addresses. This is a huge problem because people signup but then can't activate their account. I don't understand why its sending some and not sending others based on the email domain? The guys at wordpress said "it's that your server does not support SMTP or at least wp_mail() in its normal form" but that doesn't mean much to me.

Debian :: Wordpress Server Folder Ownership?

Feb 9, 2011

I've recently started setting up a new wordpress install on a new dedicated server. The system is installed on a linux debian 5 setup and running on apache.Having only ever run shared hosting before this setup is a much bigger leap than expected, but after a couple of weeks doing bits here and there I've finally got the setup running, and all appears ok.My issue is as follows:On the server the default owner of all the installed folders is "root"In order to allow media uploads, plugin installs and upgrades and wordpress auto-upgrades I've had to Chown the owner of the entire wordpress directory to the server as follows:Chown -R www-data:www-data /usr/share/wordpress/

Can anyone tell me if this is actually secure? (clearly if the server is compromised the folder would be writeable!) If not would I be better changing the owner back to root (or even creating a new user for the wordpress folder?), then chown just the uploads, theme, and blogs.dir folders to allow media uploads, upgrades, etc from with the wordpress, and then only chown the entire wordpress install when upgrading or installing new plugins, themes, etc.?Just a bit lost when it comes to the ownership of these folders as changing these ownerships is the only way i can get the system functioning 'correctly'

Fedora :: YUM Update Broke Wordpress And Gallery

Dec 17, 2009

I ran a yum update a couple days ago, and it completed without error. Today I tried logging into Wordpress, and was unable to do so. I get a 403 error. Further investigation shows that I can no longer run any php scripts for Wordpress or Gallery. A look through yum log shows the following packages were installed:

Dec 13 11:22:52 Updated: mysql-libs.i386 5.0.88-1.fc10
Dec 13 11:23:57 Updated: qt-mysql.i386 1:4.5.3-9.fc10
Dec 13 11:37:40 Updated: mysql.i386 5.0.88-1.fc10
Dec 13 11:37:47 Updated: mysql-server.i386 5.0.88-1.fc10

There were no updates to apache, php, or SElinux, so I am at a loss to explain why apache is no longer able to run php scripts.

Ubuntu :: Cannot Take Screenshots In Firefox Of WordPress Websites

Jun 3, 2011

I sometimes take screen shots of websites in Firefox. The easiest way is to use one of the many extensions, e.g. Screengrab. However, I have discovered that, when trying to take a screen shot of the entire web page, the lower part of the page is not captured. This happens on WordPress sites and, curiously, on Mozilla's own results pages. Other pages seem to be unaffected. However, on Chromium, it works perfectly.

System: Ubuntu Lucid 10.04.
Firefox: 4.0.1

Ubuntu Servers :: Security - Creating A Photoblog On Wordpress

Feb 5, 2010

I am interested in creating a photoblog on Wordpress. Before I jump in I thought it would be wise to ask a few questions here first rather than getting into trouble and then firing absurd questions left and right. I am not very experienced regarding servers but not afraid either I was reading How-to's online reagarding installing Wordpress on Linux [url] and few questions came to mind :

1) Like any other server, does the computer that will run Wordpress have to be up and running for 24/7?

2) Since I will install Wordpress on a desktop, should I be concerned about my machine being compromised? I am not an expert on internet security so this is a big concern of mine.

3) Is it a good idea to install Wordpress on a personal desktop at all? Does running Wordpress from a different partition of the hard drive (if it is possible) help at all.

Ubuntu Installation :: Wordpress Plugin Upgrades Failing?

Jun 3, 2010

I'm not certain that my problem is due to an Ubuntu upgrade, but I'm running out of options.My private Wordpress installation was working fine, including being able to upgrade plugins and WP versions within the application. I've been doing all of the Ubuntu updates as I'm notified. I'm still on 9.10, but was planning to upgrade to 10.04 shortly - as soon as I get the Wordpress installation upgraded in fact.

But the plugin upgrades, and the Wordpress upgrades, are both failing with fopen errors, like so:Download failed. Could not open handle for fopen() to [URL]..After checking everything else I can think of (including temporarily making the wordpress directory hierarchy 777), and looking at the php.ini file, I wonder if some Ubuntu update is messing things up. Or if I've somehow changed something else that is causing the problem.

Ubuntu :: WordPress - Choose An Image To Insert Into The Blog?

Sep 30, 2010

I use WordPress. If I want to choose an image to insert into the blog, the file browser window (unlike even the most basic version of Windows) only gives me a "list view" option and no other options. This.Is.A.Huge.Limitation. I can't choose an image visually - only by name. Is there a way to remedy this? Will a different file browser (instead of Nautilus?) get me what I want?

Ubuntu Security :: Wordpress Permission To Write To Files?

Nov 9, 2010

I am having difficulties assigning permission for wordpress to write files. I am having problems with the permalink within wordpress and I think it might be because of the level of permission wordpress has. Currently on my system I need to set permission to 777 in order for wordpress to write to the .htaccess file.

I am running my website on a Ubuntu machine. Version 10.10 Apache2 2.2.4

However, when I leave the permission level set to 777 I still cannot get the permalink to point to the corrent page......See my discussion on this here. [URL]

I think what I need to do is change wordpress to use a user permission or a group permission and not "everyone". I would rather have wordpress setup to login as a specific user before it can write over a file.
