Trying to install Oxwall on a new server is giving error | Forum

when I try to install it, it says:

The server can not find the requested page:99.198.106.154/~worldafr/oxwall/install/requirements (port 80)Please forward this error screen to 99.198.106.154's WebMaster.

I recently moved to a new hosting company, on a virtual dedicated server and now this issue is coming up. Last time I installed it, it was pretty straight foward. am I missing something?

most likely DNS issue...

I don't think so, because when I go to /oxwall from the browser, it redirects to oxwall/install/requirements and says 
oxwall/install/requirements was not found on this server.

I don't know why it's going there. If I type in the browser:
oxwall/ow_install/install.php
which is the correct directory, it gives me the error:
Fatal error: Class 'UTIL_Url' not found in /home/worldafr/public_html/oxwall/ow_install/install.php on line 26

OK so this is a fresh install you guys are trying to do.  I will download the LATEST 1.2.3 version and do a quick install and see if I get the same issue.  I have had 100% success with installs on my host.

Give me a few mins.

OK created new DB, DBuser and DBpassword.  Uploaded extracted files from latest OW version.
 On initial page load I was prompted for the install info.
I entered that, followed the normal install sdequence and I ended up with a site.

I can only assume your hosting platform is incorrect somehow.  I know that doesn't help that much.
Just make sure you have all the requirements needed,  all the files are uploaded,  and folder permissions are correct.

Only advice I can give you.  The initial install download 1.2.3 worked 100% for me.

@Val

I should explain more why I thought it was DNS.  The fact the error was the file could not be found was referenced by an IP instead of a URL made me think that DNS had not been up and running.  I would have expected


The server can not find the requested page:http://yourwebsite.com/oxwall/install/requirements (port 80)Please forward this error screen to http://yourwebsite.com's WebMaster.

It could also be related to the install being within a folder on the host AND/OR what the host sets as the absolute path.  Just thinking...

The download package (1.2.3 fresh install) is fixed a couple of hours ago... That's why you don't have problems anymore.

:/
I've installed mediawiki, clipbucket, and zen cart fine...I can't figure out this one.

Try download the package in a different browser or delete your cookies. Check if the new download is different from the old one. It should be some bytes more.

Hi,

I have the same problem. I downloaded the source (1.6.0 version) from the page and then put it in my local hosting. When I go to the root url (http://127.0.0.1/oxwall-1.6.0) the browser redirects me to path "http://127.0.0.1/oxwall-1.6.0/install" and gives me this error:


Not Found

The requested URL /oxwall-1.6.0/install was not found on this server.


Then, if I try to go to the url "http://127.0.0.1/oxwall-1.6.0/ow_install/install.php" gives me this error:


Fatal error: Class 'UTIL_Url' not found in D:\Dropbox\htdocs\oxwall-1.6.0\ow_install\install.php on line 26


Please help mee !!! I have no idea what I have wrong, and this is driving me cracy.


I have Windows 7, apache 2.4.7 and PHP 5.5.10 installed has a module.


Thanks !!!

Tanny what is the folder name where you unpacked the software?
tanny
tanny May 26 '14

The folder is D:\Dropbox\htdocs\oxwall-1.6.0. Obviously I have changed the httpd.conf like this:

DocumentRoot "d:/Dropbox/htdocs"

<Directory "d:/Dropbox/htdocs">


Definitely I have a wrong configuration in my local server, because I did try locally with xampp (latest version) and it worked.


What I did and did not work (and I need it work) was:


1. download Apache from http://www.apachelounge.com/

2. download and install Visual C++ (VC11 vcredist_x64/86.exe) from apachelounge.com

3. Download PHP from http://windows.php.net/download/

4. Unzip Apache and PHP: C: /Apache24 and C: /php-5.5.12

5. Edit httpd.conf file adding (or replacing) these lines:


#ServerName www.example.com:80

ServerName localhost
<IfModule dir_module>

    DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php

    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

    AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

</IfModule>

LoadModule php5_module "C:/php-5.5.12/php5apache2_4.dll"

PHPIniDir "C:/php-5.5.12"


6. Open cmd console and install apache:
cd c:/php-5.5.12

cd bin

httpd –k install

7. Edit php.ini file and restart Apache.

extension_dir = " C:/php-5.5.12/extp

hp_gd2.dll

php_mysql.dll

extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll

extension=php_mbstring.dll

max_execution_time = 900


I also add my php configuration. I have no idea what I have bad. :( My-PHP-Configuration


PLEASE HEALP !!! :(


TKS !!!!

Tanny I couldn't find mod_rewrite module among your php configuration. make sure it is enabled. 
tanny
tanny May 29 '14

Ok, I corrected it. I found that "mod_rewrite" is an Apache module and has nothing to do with PHP. So, I have activated the module uncommenting the following line in httpd.conf:


LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so


Nevertheless, did not work neither. I attached my new php config.

Tanny is this your domain: http://neges.net/oxwall-1.6.0/install/site ? Please clear the browser cache, because I can see the first step of the installation when I enter it.
