[ghost]

Soo i listend to you guys and moved to digitalocean VPS i did install a control panel called sentora i have used many times but i uploaded all files to the website all php extensions installed this time (YAY) and all the folders are 777 in chmod but getting the page isn't working after pressing Launch installer.

[acamilleri]

Hello,

Ok so, on your VPS you will using only one website (contentify) or many website ?

[ghost]

Its gonna be one website but then we will have another website to host files onto ;)

[acamilleri]

Can you provide me your URL for install Contentify ?

[ghost]

zealgg.com but u get error but for contentify zealgg.com/public/

[acamilleri]

I dont know how Sentora work ...
How did you create your website in Sentora ?

I'm looking on google and i found this:
https://www.snip2code.com/Snippet/1032891/Laravel-5-2-on-sentora-fix

Because for Laravel your rootdirectory must have: public

[ghost]

any way to change it?

[ghost]

i followed that tutorial, still not working ill try to reboot the vps

EDIT: DIDN'T WORK ;(

[ghost]

Soo i destroyed the droplet and remade it now i installed LAMP on to the vps and the IP Changed soo i have to wait till DNS Finishes

[acamilleri]

So now i can send you virtualhost configuration for your website

[ghost]

yes

[ghost]

do u know how to fix This site can’t be reached?

[acamilleri]

So i think in LAMP it's Apache2:

1. go to _/etc/apache2/sites-available_
2. create file _vim WEBSITE.conf_
3. Add this content and adapt with your website in your file:
   http://laravel.io/bin/6LrOv/raw
4. go to _cd /var/log/apache2/_
5. create folder mkdir WEBSITE
6. command: a2ensite WEBSITE
7. lets go ;)

[ghost]

oki :)

[ghost]

Done it all now am uploading the contentify files into /VAR/WWW/WEBSITE/PUBLIC

[ghost]

I did it now with the files uploaded going to my website i get refused to connect ;(

[ghost]

If i go to my website thru the ip it tells me to click the WEBSITE FOLDER then PUBLIC ;( i want it to go in public straight away

[acamilleri]

Can you write: ls /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
Copy paste the result here please.

re-run this without "/" (i wrote /public/rss so it's public/rss)

chmod 777 -vR storage
chmod 777 -vR boostrap/cache
chmod 777 -vR public/uploads
chmod 777 -vR public/share
chmod 777 -vR public/rss

[ghost]

K done but got error on 3cmd

[ghost]

u got steam soo i can talk to you on there?

[acamilleri]

I'm sorry i stopped to use steam long time ago.
Come on on discord: https://discord.gg/WDeGY

[acamilleri]

You can close this issue.

1. We have re-downloaded Contentify, correctly move files in folder (/var/www/website)
2. We have set chmod 777 on different folder (look in Wiki).
3. We have run php composer.phar install for installing vendor component
4. We have generate key with php artisan key:generate
5. We have created file ".env" and set application key APP_KEY=KEYGENERATE

[chriskonnertz]

Ok thanks!

Yeah sometimes it can be very stressful to install it. :( I wish it was easier. If someone has ideas how to improve the installation please let me know!
