I can log in via FTP absolutely fine, I cannot CHMOD files or upload files though.
I've been trying to get Joomla! up and running on my hp 64-bit laptop which runs ubuntu 10.04. I want to use it to develop websites and upload them later. I also want to use it as a testing environment for other sites I make using HTML/CSS. I know I need LAMP and then Joomla!. But it all seemed to be a little too unclear right now. I've looked around for a smooth and straight-forward instruction to install it on my machine. Alas, it has not come to my screen, ... at least not for now. The Joomla wiki does not have Ubuntu instructions and I am absolutely sure somebody has done this in Ubuntu and can give me a step-by-step instruction on how to do that.

Does someone knows if is possible to use PostFix as SMTP server for Joomla?
If does; would be necessary to install IMAP or POP3, Webmail etc if I just want to send automatics mails via Joomla.
Ive installed Uubntu 10.04 with some virtual servers. On some of them i'm running Joomla CMS and i have problem with php mail function... i think. The problem is, when i register some new user in the Joomla, Joomla cant send the user notification mail and the admin dont get the notification mail too. So is the problem with joomla, phpmail or in the configuration of apache or php?

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy current situation involves me having webmin (virtualmin) installed on my current centos server. Im using virtualmin gpl and my users/hosted sites are not very smart when it comes to making a website. They can upload sites via FTP and manage minor things but thats about it. What i want to do is make a couple of scripts using the terminal style that can do a quick auto install of Joomla. The command will run as the user who is executing it in WebMin.
Here is the Locations of the items in transfer.
I will have 2 premade sets; one Joomla SourceCode-FileSystem ; A Joomla MySql database to go along with it.
Heres what I need to do;
Variable: TheUsername = The WebMin user as described above
1. Check to make sure File /home/TheUsername/public_html/index.php dose not exist. If dose then cancel the install.
2. Copy files /NoodleServerFiles/AutoInstall/Joomla/ to /home/TheUsername/public_html/
3. Create a Database Named: TheUsername-Joomla
4. Enable TheUsername to beable to read and write to it.
5. Inport /NoodleServerFiles/AutoInstall/Databases/Joomla.sql to that database
6. Edit the file /home/TheUsername/public_html/configuration.php on specific lines Example: Line10: DB_user: TheUsername
7. Save it.
8. Display Text in the Terminal Command saying "Success in creating your website. Go look!"
I have just installed joomla and proceeded to do the web install. Got the interface up and running and its now complaining it does not see the mysql server running. I do in fact have it running. Veryfied it with mysql command on command line and it complained with missing attributes.
I read a thread that it needs php-mysql installed. So went to proceed to install it. Well, I did not have that and went to install it. Verified it. Package mysql-server-5.0.77-3.el5.i386 already installed and latest version
I then did a service mysql reset.
Checked back at the joomla web install interface and still, it says there is no mysql support! What is next? Im running centos OS. Also, I am running LAMP
My task is to set-up a dedicated LAMP server to host a site with joomla (this is basically LAMP + joomla which is a PHP-based content management system). Beside the basic web content, the site will hold a large amount of sample videos and similar large files (2TB on a RAID is available a lot of them will be used).
I googled a lot, and I read a lot about all the virtualisation solutions such as kvm, xen, virtualbox, vmware, openvz and vserver, I more or less understand their properties, but I cannot decide which one to choose.
I tried a few of them but I have no experience about its long term usage, stability etc.
In short I need an advice from people who successfully running real-word sites with some virtualisation solution. Basically I would like to know which one to use for the more robust, stable server.
Only read further if you have a similar system.
I would like to use some kind of virtualisation solution for the joomla server, becauseI have no trust in such systems, so if it is hacked I will just recover from a backup (or reinstall) the guest, but I do not need to go to the server-park. (after it, I have to find out how it was hacked) perhaps later we would like to use some other services which is also good if they are separated
I would like to use Slackware as a host and a guest.
I would like to put one file-system to the large raid array, and share it among the virtual-servers if it is possible (there is only one server now but there could be more with different applications). Or do I need to use lvm on the raid for the different servers?
Here is what I think:Because I want to "run linux on linux", first I thought that a container based solution (vserver, openvz) is perfect for the job, because of the low overhead and because I can use the whole file system for the storage, and I can share free space with other services in the future. The problem is vserver and openvz are big patches for the kernel, but I would like to change slackware as small as possible. So I would like to stay with the kernel of slack-13.0. openvz does not even support 2.6.29 while vserver is, but I have to compile a new patched kernel. So the the options here are to use a different kernel with openvz, or use the same but patched kernel with vserver.
Another option is to use "real" virtualisation solutions such as kvm, xen, virtualbox and vmware. It seems that kvm is the future, because it is already in the official kernel and "powered" by Red Hat, so it will be well supported. I likely will choose kvm.
As i wrote I tried a few of them but I have no experience about its long term usage, stability, so I want here about which one is used in real word servers, what kind of problems (stability) they have, etc.?
I've created a mysql user and he can connect Joomla to mysqld when everyone has full permissions to the mysql homedir but I know this is bad from a security standpoint. If I set mysql user as the only one with permissions then I can't connect. I know Joomla support is not very help from past experience, wish I could dump it for something else but it does work great once it is configured so I need to keep it around, can anyone make a guess as to what permissions I need to have set on mysql's home dir so that joomla can still connect yet I am more secure than now?

I made a full install of Slackware and have been using one of my boxes as an Apache web server. I recently tried to install Joomla, the PHP CMS software, and when I ran the pre-install requisite checker (The second step of the installation), the installer notified me that I do not have MySQL support. I find this especially strange as I've made webpages using PHP that made use of MySQL databases.
My pre-post research has lead me to several other people with the same problem. Half were using windows, and just had not uncommented the "extension mysql.so" line in the php.ini file. The other half solved their problem by installing their distro's php-mysql module. According to what I'd read, you can still use MySQL if you don't have that module installed, but Joomla does need it to be able to use the MySQL database.
I've searched long and hard for this plugin/add-on/module for Slackware, but to no avail. It's available in RPM format, and I know that it's possible to use rpm2tgz to convert these files, but I don't know exactly what the issue is, and if Slackware may be different. I don't want to install that and then find out that it overwrote something that I'd needed.
I have recently merged two Joomla 1.0 sites I ran into one. I imported the articles I wanted to keep to the new site, and I have the old site's domain pointing as an alias at the new site. The new site is www.theouthousers.com . The old site was www.bludblood.com .
I also have the core SEF URLs on, using the htaccess.txt file that came with Joomla.
I have one writer for the old site who linked to his articles in various places, so I am trying to set up redirects for him so that he doesn't have to change all of his links.
For instance, I need something like:
http://www.bludblood.com/joomla/inde...d=25&Itemid=51
To redirect to the equivalent location on the new site:
[url]
And I also need specific links like:
[url]
To redirect to their new counterparts:
[url]
Keeping in mind that www.bludblood.com is now an alias of www.theouthousers.com, is there any way to do this? I have been trying with rewrite rules and redirects, and cannot seem to achieve the desired effect.
Tried various versions of:
Code:
Redirect [url] [url]
With the http, without, as regexps, as 301s, as permanents, etc, and it just will not work. Also tried as RewriteRule.
I am having a time at trying to get a simple FTP setup to my Var/www/html folder for my canned Joomla website.

I have installed Joomla on an Ubuntu 10.04 Server pc. The Ubuntu server is connected to my Novell NetWare network via static IP. I need the Ubuntu server to send mail to my mail server through smtp, my entire network has static IP's. The Ubuntu server does not need to receive mail only send, I have found that I could try use sendmail, postfix or exim4. I tried Exim4 but I am battling with the setup. For my situation what would be the best to use? What config's are most important to set?

1. Why does wireless almost never work right on Ubuntu?
2. Why, when Ubuntu just decides to turn off my wireless card, can I not just turn it back on?
3. Why do tar balls almost never unpack right?
4. Why are printer drivers so buggy?

I spent 3 hours last night trying to unpack a tar.bz2 file so I can run my Ralink network card. It worked fine until my son unplugged my computer. Now my card is disconnected and it will not reconnect. When I check forums no one has a simple answer for something as simple as turning a network card back on. On my Apple, it's simple: click my wireless icon and hit "on." tell me an easy way to just turn my wireless card back on, it would renew my faith a little in Linux.
When I installed my 64 bit system of Ubuntu 10.04 the sound worked very well and I were very happy. The problem started however when I installed Skype which uses pulseaudio. As soon as I start skype (or any other application that uses pulse, HoN for example) the applications sound output or input does not work at all. If I have pulseaudio started in some way, applications that I suppose do not use it like spotify or flash player stops to produce sounds.

I'm not to sure this is the place I should post this, but couldn't find any place for it to fit. So here is the deal..I am running 10.10 with the standard LAMP setup. I am running a drupal 7 site no problems. What I need to do is run a multi site sub directory. (domain.com/newsite). So far the best I can do is get a directory index of the second site (domain.com/newsite), but cant run the installer. (I did the symbolic link to the doc root of the drupal install.)If I type in the url domain.com/newsite/install.php I get not found. I placed an index.html test page and it renders fine. I think I'm close but just not there yet.
Any ideas from anyone? I can get Sobdomains to work fine on a test mache, but sadly I need the domain/site to work due to lack of DNS support at the moment. I tried to get some info from the drupal forum, but everything always points to subdomin setups. I also posted over there, but it seems like the forums have very little support and are a bit on the slow side.

I'm having trouble getting compiz to work on my Laptop. It worked for a while and then I turned on Shift Switcher and a message popped up saying..."The new value for the button binding for the action Terminate in plugin Shift Switcher conflicts with the action Zoom Window of the Scale Addons plugin. Do you wish to disable Zoom Window in the Scale Addons plugin?" I was given the option of Set Terminate anyway, Don't set Terminate, and Disable Zoom Window. I clicked Don't set Terminate and ever since the only thing that works in compiz are the bindings in the general options. I've used synaptic to completely remove and then reinstall compiz but the problem persist. Something else weird, all of the changes I made are still there, even after complete removal, but they don't work?
