Wordpress Drupal Wont Create Files On Server Lamp

Apr 6, 2009

I built a web hosting server, the following is its state

Cent os 5
AMP server loaded updated (installed it as a complete suite during installation so it was all set to go with php mysql modules loaded)
webmin
usermin virtualmin

created 2 named based hosts.

now when i load up wordpress in a site and try to run install.php

the following pops up

"Sorry, I can't write to the directory. You'll have to either change the permissions on your WordPress directory or create your wp-config.php manually."

I had this issue before and research said to redo the entire server (tried everything and was fed up had fedora then"

you can have a look at www.itgrunts.com just click create config file and the errror pops up.

The php and mysql db work great on simple scripts but i dont know why this happens.

i worked with assigning the users and apache user to the directory and everything, no joy.

Possible To Run Drupal And WordPress For Two Different Domains On Same VPS

Jun 4, 2008

I have Drupal setup for one domain on my VPS, and it is the only domain I have.

However, I don't use it that much, and I want to purchase another domain for just a small personal site.

I want to run this on WordPress because I am happier with the simplicity that WordPress offers.

However, I want to do this on the same VPS.

Installing WordPress is no issue, but beyond that, I am screwed!

I have no idea what to do as far as multiple sites go, and it took me forever to get the settings right on my Drupal site, but I have read that it is possible to setup separate sites on the same VPS. But reading about it, and finding information about how to do it has not worked out; I'm not exactly sure what to search for on Google, and most guides give directions on using control panels I don't have access to.

I want the drupal site to still be blah.com and then the WordPress.com site to be whatever.com, and I want them to run on the same VPS. I need them to be separate. One person asked the same question on this forum, and I think he got an answer that was how to point a different domain to the same VPS, but again, these will act as completely SEPARATE sites.

Any help, guides, resources that you fine members of WHT could provide would be greatly appreciated. I can get dirty in the command line (although I still am new to all this networking stuff), but if I had someone point me in the right direction, I should be able to get it done.

I know how to point the domain to the VPS' DNS, but beyond that, I am completely lost, and I could use some help.

Plesk 12.x / Linux :: WordPress - Cannot Access Files Via FTP

Nov 21, 2014

I have some issues access my files through FTP. I created a new FTP user, that match the domain name, so it is easy for me to terminate access if i choose to delete the domain.

I can only access / see files that i uploaded with that specific FTP user. If i install a plugin inside Wordpress, i can not access those files via FTP.

If i login via SSH, with the root user, i can see all files.

I have tried to add the FTP user to the psacln group, but no luck.

How Do You Create/generate Config Files

Jul 10, 2009

When deploying new server/servergroup/cluster to your IT infrastructure, deployment (simplified) consist of following steps:

OS installation: to do it over network, boot server must be configured for this new server/servergroup/cluster,

configuration/package management: configuration server has to be aware of the newcomer(s),

monitoring and alerting: monitoring software must be reconfigured,

performance metrics: a tool for collecting data must be reconfigured.

There are many excellent software solutions for those particular jobs, say configuration management (Puppet, Chef, cfengine, bcfg2), monitoring hosts and services (Nagios, Zabbix, OpenNMS, Zenoss, etc) and performance metrics (Ganglia, etc). But each of these tools has to be configured independently or at least configuration has to be generated. What tools do you use to achieve this?

For example, when you have to deploy a new server, how do you create configs for, let's say, PXE boot server, Puppet, Nagios and Ganglia, at once?

LAMP Server From Scratch

Mar 21, 2008

We have a spare powerconnect server in work and i was looking to set it up as a web server for a company intranet - more to gain experience in configuring a web server than anything else.

I decided to go with Fedora 8 as i'd used fedora previously and followed the LAMP tutorial on HowToForge.

However i've come across a problem which i just can't seem to resolve (after pretty intensive searching). So, i guess this post is in 2 parts.

Firstly, the error i'm getting is with mysql only. The error message is:

ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

I understand this may be a generic error but i'm not sure what other information would be useful.

Secondly, as this is my first web server - have I made the correct choice in terms of linix release or would something like CentOS be more suitable? I'd like to get this right from the start now that i have the chance.

Simple LAMP Server

Nov 20, 2007

to set up a little server that will have LAMP installed on it. All it will do is host a small program that runs on PHP and mySQL and will only be used on an office network with about 50 employees.

How well would this server run if the hardware was rather modest (667Mhz, 128mb RAM, 10GB HDD)?

Small LAMP VPS For Primary DNS Server

May 21, 2009

Because of the security issues inherent in controlling DNS servers on other VPS/servers that run other processes, host websites and store mission-critical data and for other reasons related to control, we want to keep our DNS server separate from our other servers and our own desktops. Therefore, we're going to get a small VPS for this purpose.

We won't totally cheap out on this so we'll be getting a quality VPS from a good provider. But, we probably don't need more than 5 or 10G of HD space but we wonder how much RAM and bandwidth we need to run something like MyDNS with MyDNSConfig with a MySQL backend.

Also, what's the best Linux distro for this kind of thing? We use CentOS with facility but are not afraid to try a new one if it's a better choice for this purpose.

Building A Simple LAMP Dev Server

Jul 18, 2007

I currently dev locally on a cobalt RAQ (ollld!) and would like to upgrade this setup.

I'm looking for a simple way of getting a linux system setup for internal dev work with the basics... mysql, apache, php5, and some kind of version control - subversion / cvs.

Are there any linux liveCDs that I could use to make something like this quite easily?
For our production server we use plesk, so a control panel similar to that for setting up new dev domains would be useful. Open source of couse tho.

Apache :: Setting Up Second Server With LAMP

Feb 21, 2015

I am just trying to understand what I am doing wrong when I try to set up a second server with LAMP. I already have a working server with LAMP but i didn't set that one up. Now I am trying to add additional machine and I am trying to figure out what else do i have to do so the machine will work as virtual server for my webpage(s).

Like I said, on a new server i already installed Lamp, forwarded ports 80, 22, 442 ....to correct LAN IP, and added an entry under apache2 sites-available like this:

"<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName test.com
ServerAlias www.test.com
ServerAdmin info@test.com
DocumentRoot /media/BigBoy/www/test
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/test_error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/test_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>"

Than i connected a new domain to my main IP but it automaticly connects to the old server that is already running in my home network. So the question is what do i have to do, for my new server to run the webpages i want to? Do i have to add a specific command on old server or something else i forgot?

Simpleish PHP/flat Files - Create File, Edit, Save

Nov 24, 2007

Display some text in a web browser from a file called text.txt

text.txt will have many lines and some of them I do not want users to be able to modify and overwrite.

config_item_1=user can edit
config_item_2=user should see but not edit (could be on any line)
config_item_3=user can edit
config_item_4=user can edit

The user has made their changes in the web browser and clicks submit. I then need this info to be saved as the text.txt file however some checking needs to be done first. Anything matching config_item_2 should be removed. This could be on any line. Anything not matching should be permitted and added.

How NOT To Require CHMOD 755 Permissions To Create, Write And Delete Files On Linux

Dec 30, 2008

On my previous server and on some other hosts, I was able to write to files (for example with PHP) without having to chmod the files first.

Now I cannot, and files are required to be chmoded properly so I can write to them.

I cannot even touch() a file with PHP.

Is there any way to have this permissions removed?

I don't want to chmod the all thing, all I want is to change the configurations so I can fwrite() or file_put_contents() normally.

I's a dedicated un-managed server, so basically any advanced configurations can be done.

Apache :: Reducing TTFB (Linux LAMP Server)

Mar 1, 2015

I've just switched my Apache and PHP config over to linux(ubuntu 14.10).

Apache 2.4.12 is using the mpm-event worker and PHP 5.6 is running in FastCGI/fpm mode.
I'm running MariaDB 10.0.17

I'd like to reduce the time to first byte even more, its currently 80 ms for static files and 110ms for PHP generated pages.

1. 80 ms seems like a lot, since the ping to the server is <15ms

How can I reduce this? Are there some tweaks for the Linux networking stack or Apache that I can apply?

I'm also using SSL, I remember it could be tweaked to improve its performance but I don't remember how..

I currently enabled the following in my main apache config:

Code:
ServerSignature Off
ServerTokens Prod
TraceEnable off

EnableMMAP on
EnableSendfile on

UseCanonicalName On

2. Is there a mod_spdy for Apache 2.4? what about http 2.0?

3. Can I tell PHP to make use of unix sockets to connect to the database server? (I heard unix sockets is faster)

4. I've installed memcached for PHP, can I also use this for Apache?

Drupal And Bluehost

Aug 23, 2008

Of the many sites I have, I have one hosted at Bluehost. In the beginning I was very sattisfied and happy. Lately due to workload and stuff, I changed the sites scripts into Drupal.

This seems in retrospect a bad choice because I get CPU exceeds suddenly. Now because I was new to Drupal I thought it was mistake. But with caching enabled agressivly, a minimum of mods enabled and FastCGI on there are still reports of CPU exceeds. This is something which ticks me of. Google Analytics says (I have hosting stats disabled) I get about 300 unique visitors per day.

So the real question is, whats suxors the most. Drupal or Bluehost? Bluehost says Drupal is a falty script made up of bad coding...

I find 300 visitors per day a little low to move to a VPS host. So my question is, is there another host where I can host my site(s) that has equal settings as Bluehost?

Drupal Hosting ...

Apr 7, 2008

I've made a Social Networking site based on Drupal and I'm now looking for a place to host it. My budget is of 100$ and i'm thinking of buying a premium hosting plan or vps or maybe even a dedicated (if the budget allows) for 1 month, in order to see if the site will have any success. The hosting company must have an option of upgrading the hosting plan so the site's growth will not be limited.

An other alternative would be bluehost but from what I've read they are a total rip-off.

My special requirements are: php5, mod_rewrite and imagemagick installed, SPF domain records or any other method to avoid the email going into the spam folder. mhash and mcrypt are a bonus but not a must.

Anyone can suggest me a truly professional hosting solution for my needs? I don't want the months spent into developing the site gone to waste because of a bad hosting company that suddenly decides they want to suspend my account.

Best Drupal Host

May 4, 2008

I'm adding a drupal site of my own to my other sites. Any suggestions for good drupal hosting?

I don't envision my site as heavy traffic (mostly for my classes and students) but I know drupal has some heavy demands for sql queries and I would like to make sure the site is pretty fast. I'm building a test site on my ASO account, and response time seems pretty slow.

Two Drupal Sites On Vps - RAM

Nov 10, 2008

I'm developing two Drupal websites and now looking for a host. I have never used Drupal before, and all my hosting experiences are with shared hosting. Since I have read lately a lot about problems with performance of Drupal sites on various shared hosts, I decided to look for a VPS. Managed, since I don't have skills to manage it by myself. From what I read I have concluded that for one low-mid traffic Drupal site with few modules active, I'll need 200-250MB RAM. How much will I need for two websites on same VPS? Double? Should I use one Drupal installation for both sites? Does that mean I don't need double amount of RAM?

Drupal Website Under Attack By Spammers

Jul 22, 2009

I have a Drupal based website which allows comments on posts after validating through CAPTCHA.
Someone has been using a robot to bypass Image CAPTCHA and spam my site by posting hundreds of comments each day.

I use Google Analytics and Statcounter counters on my site. But I haven't been able to find spammer's IP address from visitor logs as the spammer comes directly to my site without any referral. Is there a way to find spammer's IP address and block it in the .HTACCESS file?

I don't think I can stop the spammer just by applying CAPTCHA on comments.
