Avideo: What operating system do i need

[thereskinner]

I was just told I can't use Windows. What operating system must I use ? When will you build for Windows ?

[SubjectXXX]

You were never told to not use Windows, author cannot support windows installation of xAMP.

There is no build for specific OS, but each OS has specific settings when it comes to apache, php and what not.
Problem with your ticket was, that you actually dont know how to get (us) more info on error. Asking you to provide us errors from logs and you replying WHAT?!? simply shows us, that we cannot help you debugging your problem because it would take us a good amount of time only to teach you basics first.

On the other note, it works out of the box on Ubuntu 18.04LTS. It should work on WAMP too, but you have to have required extensions for PHP and Apache loaded for example.

Also, you need to create some stuff manually around DB too..
Author can provide you with support tho: https://www.youphptube.com/services

Okay I just figured out how to get the errors this is what I got:

Like I said in previous thread: you WAMP is not configured correctly, you dont have your mysql database setup the correct way and you are missing php extensions.

This errors are out of scope of this application support. You are expected to have at least some knowledge how xAMP works..

[thereskinner]

Ok but what is the correct way ? I've implemented plenty of projects and this is the only time this happened

[SubjectXXX]

Start by examining your /videos/configuration.php file. It should have access data to your database (host, database name, user, pass)..

[thereskinner]

Start by examining your /videos/configuration.php file. It should have access data to your database (host, database name, user, pass)..

Whenever I try it keeps on showing localhostc and my server is called localhost

[SubjectXXX]

Again, you do not have basics on how to set up and config web application.

Open configuration.php in your text editor..

[thereskinner]

It is open

[SubjectXXX]

...

[thereskinner]

What ?

[SubjectXXX]

What what?

[thereskinner]

I opened the file and everything seems fine

[SubjectXXX]

Ohh, really, it seems fine?

Well, good for you.

Connect to your database with phpmyadmin with credentials that are written in this configuration.php.

[thereskinner]

$mysqlHost = 'localhost';
$mysqlPort = '3306';
$mysqlUser = 'username';
$mysqlPass = 'password';
$mysqlDatabase = 'youphptube';

[thereskinner]

That's my credentials. I changed my username and password

[SubjectXXX]

Again

...

[thereskinner]

What's the ... for ?

I checked my error log and it only showed errors for a different project. Even though that project is closed

[SubjectXXX]

... means I'm waiting for you to do what I told you to do..

[thereskinner]

Okay. I changed my PHPMYADMIN username and password. So I changed it from root and '' to what mine is. And I am in my database

[thereskinner]

Do you want to see the whole file ?

[thereskinner]

And I just logged in with root and '' as no password

[SubjectXXX]

what tables do you have in youphptube database?
Write two or three..

[thereskinner]

17

[thereskinner]

[SubjectXXX]

OK, they are all here..

I guess problem is going to be in apache or php now..

Which php version are you using?

[thereskinner]

7.2.10

[SubjectXXX]

can you copy paste whole configuration.php (omitting password ofc..)?

[thereskinner]

$global['disableAdvancedConfigurations'] = 0;
$global['videoStorageLimitMinutes'] = 0;
// $global['webSiteRootURL'] = 'http://localhost/YouPHPTube-master/';
// get the subdirectory, if exists
$subDir = str_replace(array($_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"], 'videos/configuration.php'), array('',''), __FILE__);
$global['webSiteRootURL'] = "http".(!empty($_SERVER['HTTPS'])?"s":"")."://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$subDir;

$global['systemRootPath'] = 'C:/wamp/www/YouPHPTube-master/';
$global['salt'] = '5c55de015fdee';

[thereskinner]

$mysqlHost = 'localhost';
$mysqlPort = '3306';
$mysqlUser = 'root';
$mysqlPass = '';
$mysqlDatabase = 'youphptube';

/**

• Do NOT change from here
  */

require_once $global['systemRootPath'].'objects/include_config.php';

[SubjectXXX]

delete /videos/youphptube.log file and refresh page, so that errors are written fresh, and then copy log here again..

[thereskinner]

I just did that and i am getting the same errors

[SubjectXXX]

...

[thereskinner]

These are all of the errors

[SubjectXXX]

I think you have problems with virtual hosts in apache.

You are getting server wrong folder on port 80..

What is the exact URL that you are trying to access in browser?

[thereskinner]

Yeah I just clicked install service and I got this

[thereskinner]

http://localhost/YouPHPTube-master/

That's the name of the folder in my wamp/www folder

[SubjectXXX]

I just tried to install ypt freshly on wamp and it went without a problem..

I did had to comment out $global['webSiteRootURL'] = "http".(!empty($_SERVER['HTTPS'])?"s":"")."://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$subDir;
and uncomment $global['webSiteRootURL'] = 'http://localhost/YouPHPTube-master/';

[thereskinner]

Okay thanks it's on now. Do I have to open another thread to ask a different question ?

[SubjectXXX]

Yes, of course. And close this one, if its no longer needed.
