I am thinking its my server, After installing debian (with Apache2, PhP5, Mysql, PhPMyAdmin, Webmin) I had to change two things, add modrewrite and add virtual host (to home more then one domain).

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 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've been on the #ubuntu IRC for hours trying to figure this out. Here are some outputs of relevant commands.
ls -ltr /var/
Code:

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 1 Replies View RelatedI 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 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 can log in anon with no write permissions, but it will not log in using any users I have setup on the server. I've googled a bunch, but nothing to correct my 530 authentication failure when I try to log in as one of my user accounts for the server.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am installing Ubuntu Server 10.10 on and old Dell Laptop. The network connection is an Xircom PCMCIA card.During install, the computer sees and interacts via the network just fine. For example, I can ping the gateway. Also, the command "lspcmcia" works and show the Xircom card.When I reboot, however, there is no network access, and the "lspcmcia" command is not there. When I try "lspcmcia" the OS helpfully tells me that I can "apt-get" pcmciautils, but, without network access, that fails.I tried adding the install cdrom to apt using "apt-cdrom" and then tried to "apt-get" pcmciautils and it got further, installing some dependencies, but acted like it still was unable to locate the pcmciautils package.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a Joomla website made for me. It is hosted with a hosting company. Here and there i change some of its content, but i want to practice it locally on my computer before i do bigger things on the web, so that if things get into a serious problem it is close at hand to fix it up. I've installed apache2 php5-mysql libapache2-mod-php5 mysql-server on my Ubuntu 10.04 desktop. also, I've installed Joomla up and running.
My question is: how do i transport/copy my website from the web into my computer?
I know that I need to transfer the database, where do i put it in my local file system, and what additional commands are required for that?

I am using an HCL k38 pdc laptop and I am unable to boot KDE live cd of opensuse 11.4. The system boots to a graphical screen where a progress bar is shown. the progress bar proceeds to about 90% and then my system hangs. ALl I can see on my screen is that graphical image with suse logo and progress bar. Though my mouse works and I can move it all around the desktop but if I try pressing any key (CAPS/NUM LOCK/SCROLL LOCK) i dont see any LED notification for that. this concludes that the system is hanged.
Key board has no issue as I can use it in Windows.
I tried to boot the lice cd in text mode and it worked very fine from there I installed the system on to my HDD in dual boot mode with windows XP. But after installation when I boot opensuse from HDD it stucks at the same position.
I think this issue is with Nvidea graphics card as when the system boots I see an error message that says that the RAM has an address conflict with VGA ROM.
How can I use opensuse. I have even tried ubuntu 10.10 but it also hangs while booting or after booting. So far I have been able to manage only Sabayon Linux working on this machine however the ubuntu 9.10 was working on this system and it also started behaving similarly after I upgraded it to ubuntu 10.04.
Here's how i did it after reading a lot of threads from fedorasolved.org and this forum. At the command terminal:
chmod 777 Joomla-1.5.9-Stable-Full_Package.tar.gz
su
mkdir /var/www/html/joomla
cd /var/www/html/joomla
tar -zxvf /joomla/tar/file/location/Joomla-1.5.9-Stable-Full_Package.tar.gz
gedit configuration.php (this is just a blank file. Save it and close gedit)

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?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI downloaded the 6.06 version of xubuntu because i have a laptop that doesnt support high graphics mode, and i wasnt able to figure out how to get it to run in low graphics mode. i figured that i would get a version from a while back, and then update it up to the current version. now, to the problem. I was able to upgrade 6.10, but now it says Ubuntu version 8.04 available, so i tried to update it. it gets most of the way through the part where it says calculating or something like that, and then it says: "Can't install 'xubuntu-desktop' It was impossible to install a required package. Please report this as a bug." with an option that says close at the bottom. when i click close another window pops up that says: Could not calculate the upgrade A unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. This can be caused by:
* Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
* Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
If none of this applies, then please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport. Then the window just closes... anything that i could do to get rid of this problem? EDIT: Is there any way to update directly from an .iso file on the desktop?
how to install ubuntu 10.04 on my laptop but im a little caught up between using the wubi or full install heres my dilemma.I like the wubi but it doesn't support hibernation and from doing some reading it is not as stable and has some loss in performance.
The main issue I have with doing the full install is I'm a little concerned that making new partitions may screw up the recovery partition which I find really useful which lets me easily reformat my laptop without having to deal with all the drivers.So my real question here is twofold. Is there a way to still hibernate in wubi? And is the full install that much more stable and faster?Second should the recovery partition be ok if i later decide to start fresh again in the future?
Wubi can't retrieve the netbook versions... any fix for this? I really don't want to use anything else but wubi. I used it on my desktop, and it was straightforward and I really prefer it (it's pretty much the only reason i'm putting linux on here lol)
I'm getting an error, it says: an error occured: Cannot download the metalink and therefore the ISO
portion of the log:

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently bought my self a Acer aspire 5552G, and now I'm trying to get the latest Ubuntu on it. I put the ubuntu on a USB drive and inserted it to my laptop. I changed boot orders so that all USB devices would come first. Now if I changed only one USB device to boot first (the one where my USB was inserter, as it indicated it had SanDisc in it) It didn't do anything, it still booted up the Linpus linux ditro wich was installed on the laptop when I got it. It has no GUI and I can't do anything with it.
If I changed all USB devices to the top list of booting, the laptop started and then a text comes on the screen :
SYSLINUX 4.03 2010-10-22 EDD Copyright (C) 1994-2010 H. Peter Anvin et al.
And now it just stays like that and no matter what I press, nothing happens.
A few days back, I burned a CD with Ubuntu 10.10 (maverick?). Have since installed 10.10 on an old desktop (pentium ii, 1.15 ghz) and it boots up ok - (apart from a 'freeze' issue which varies from 10 mins to 2 1/2 hours) Anyway, my immediate problem is I'm using the SAME CD to install 10.10 on a AMD Athlon laptop (which previously ran Windows XP). The installation process starts with the usual: TRY/INSTALL screen - I select INSTALL. The whole process runs for about 40 mins, using the entire 60gb drive (I've got rid of XP). The final few messages are: 'installing system', 'copying installation logs' 'installation complete' - 'restart now'. So, the CD is ejected after which I get a string of '2380 nnnnnn i/o error device sector 533280'messages. Then, 'will now restart' At the restart, up comes the UBUNTU screen and the intro clip...and there it stays. My question, does anybody know what could be happening - if anything?? Remembering that this CD was installed on the desktop.
