Newbie - totally lost!!

Postby oldfart » Fri Aug 03, 2012 2:43 pm

Hi
Jumped in both feet!
downloaded xataface-1.3.2.tar.gz
extracted to /var/www/dataface
set permissions to www-data [33] and chmod to 777
I have existing databases in mysql on my Ubuntu server

If I run localhost/dataface, I can select a database, but that's it! No create button. nothing else on the page

If I create a new directory (/var/www/myapp)
what settings should ./makesite take??

the instructions say:-
Code: Select all
./makesite ../FacultyOfWidgetry \
            root@localhost/FacultyOfWidgetry \
            h ttp://localhost/~shannah/dataface


doesn't make sense ..
I tried
Code: Select all
./makesite ../myapp\           
root@localhost/myapp\
h ttp://localhost/dataface


error - /usr/bin/env: php: No such file or directory
..and
which files should be copied FROM the original /var/www/dataface directory into /var/ww/myapp

phew!

If you're having trouble with the makesite script, just proceed to do a manual install.
