Topic: WordPress / Changing Permissions

You need to open the terminal application. Then you need to type:

chmod 777 /Applications/wordpress-xxx/apps/wordpress/htdocs/your-folder

/Applications/wordpress-xxx/apps/wordpress/htdocs/your-folder → This will the equivalent of using finder and going to folder. xxx would be the version of the BitNami WordPress that you installed and your-folder will be the path to the folder for that you want to change the permissions. It would be equivalent to using Finder with the name of each folder separated by /.

I hope it helps.

Topic: Trac / Trac - User Authentication through Active Directory

Hi,

Just wanted to let you know that this is in our TODO list.

Topic: Tracks / Tracks Not working

Could you install the BitNami RubyStack and then the BitNami Tracks module? It already includes the graphical manager tool

Also if you want to keep your current installation you could:

- Install RubyStack (or Redmine stack)
- Copy the properties.ini and the manager-osx tool from the rubystack (or redmine) installation directory to the installation directory of your current bitnami tracks installation.
- Edit the new copy properties.ini (the sections: MySQL, Apache, Subversion and Mongrel) and update it with the ports and paths that you tracks stack is using.
- Now the manager tool should work for you.

In a default installation you should have something similar to the below in the properties.ini:

[Apache]
apache_configuration_directory=/Applications/tracks-2.0-0/apache2/conf
apache_root_directory=/Applications/tracks-2.0-0/apache2
apache_server_port=8080
apache_server_ssl_port=8443

[MySQL]
mysql_arguments=-u root -S /Applications/tracks-2.0-0/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock
mysql_binary_directory=/Applications/tracks-2.0-0/mysql/bin
mysql_port=3306
mysql_root_directory=/Applications/mysql

[Ruby]
ruby_root_directory=/Applications/tracks-2.0-0/ruby

[Subversion]
subversion_port=3690
subversion_root_directory=/home/bitrock/tracks-2.0-0/subversion

[Mongrel_tracks]
mongrel_server_port=3001

Topic: WordPress / can't get back to site

Hi,

It is likely that the port for the database was already taken. When you install it again, were you prompted for the database port? I’m glad you finally had it working.

I’m glad it works for you and also that you like the new manager tool :) Regarding installing multiple Joomla! sites you may find useful this

Topic: WordPress / Multiple WordPress Blogs

Hi letizia,

Thanks. However…you have two apache servers and two mysql database (although they are not running at the same time). Jamison was asking on how to install several instances of WordPress sharing the same apache server and mysql database. In the past another posted the steps for doing it (manually) but for Joomla!. (you can see the steps here). Basically you install BitNami MAPMStack (if you are in mac), then install the BitNami WordPress module. The following installations of WordPress should be done using the WordPress wizard but following the BitNami structure.

Topic: Cloud (Amazon AWS & BitNami Cloud Hosting) / Wordpress - Unable to create directory AWS EC2

Hi,

Having daemon own the htdocs folder is ok. The user under which apache is running (it can vary in different distributions: daemon, nobody, www-data …) should have access to the htdocs files so he can read it. I think that in a previous post we asked you to change the permissions so htdocs are owned by bitnami but setting the group-owner daemon. This should also work although the folder permissions in that case should have set to 775 instead of 755. That configuration would allow you to use external tools for copying files to your server as bitnami user while apache could still have access to the files. Or there was an error on the permissions, or some of the WordPress plugin that you were installing was checking the permissions and required to have the permissions set as 755. In any case, as you can manage your WordPress plugins from the WordPress admin having only access for the daemon user is enough.

I’m glad you finally got the issue solved!

Topic: BitNami en español / Ramas

Hola,

Si el directorio documentos no pertenece al repositorio y simplemente lo has creado antes de ejecutar “svnadmin create” puedes borrarlo y ejecutar el comando de nuevo. He encontrado este mini-manual de subversion que aunque no es una guía oficial puede serte útil. Ten en cuenta que si directamente bajo itop cuelgan directamente tus ficheros (y no bajo itop/trunk), quizás sea mejor que la rama la crees fuera de la carpeta itop.

Topic: General / Joomla on Mac OS X Lion

Hi daveth,

I have just checked that we found this bug when the user had installed XCode tools and it was fixed in the BitNami Joomla! Stack 1.6 and later. If you need Joomla! 1.5.x, can you try to installing the latest BitNami MAMPStack (that should also have this issue fixed) and then install the BitNami Joomla! module?

If you are ok with a newer version of Joomla!. Could you use the latest version of the BitNami Joomla! Stack?

Topic: Cloud (Amazon AWS & BitNami Cloud Hosting) / Wordpress - Unable to create directory AWS EC2

Regarding the permalink, have you check this link

Also, are you already able to upload plugins? Can go to the /opt/bitnami/apache2/htdocs/ directory and execute ‘ls -la’ ? Which are the permissions for the wp-content folder? Please do the same for the uploads, cache, plugins themes and uploads folder. All of them should have drwxrwxr-x.

Notice that we are setting 775 permissions because previously we changed the owner to bitnami user and daemon group. We change it to the bitnami user so you can access and copy files using scp/ftp tools and we changed it to the daemon group so apache can still have access to the files. That is way you are receiving the warnings about permissions. More details in this link

I’m sorry you’re finding these issues. Have you consider to BitNami Wordpress AMI?

Topic: Trac / Trac Stack Install Error - Help please

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback! On our side we will improve the BitNami Trac Stack so it is not affected by those environment variables if they exist.

Topic: Trac / Trac Stack Install Error - Help please

Hi,

We cannot reproduce it. Do you have any Python installation? If so, how did you installed it? If you open a windows command prompt and you execute the command ‘set’ do you see any PYTHON related environment variable?

Topic: Trac / Trac Stack with PostgreSQL please

Hi,

I think the problem is in how you are creating the project. It seems that the psycopg2 module installed correctly. Can you post the details of how are you creating it?

Thanks.

Topic: General / Installing bitNami Trac Stack on Windows 7

Hi,

Which BitNami Trac version are you using? The BitNami Trac Stack includes Python, do you have another Python installation on your system?

Topic: Trac / Trac Stack with PostgreSQL please

You should not need anything else. Which version of PostgreSQL are you using? For the psycop2 that you are using you should have PostgreSQL 9.0.4 installed. Are you using the official installer of PostgreSQL?

You mention that you don’t have any error when you execute “import psycopg2”. Does the creation of new project with trac-admin works for you? Do you still get the same error?

Topic: Trac / Plugin does not appear

Hi,

It should not be any problem with having more than one project. How did you execute the script? It should be run with administrator privileges. Please be sure that you execute it from a console with administrator privileges. If you are using the “Use BitNami Trac” shortcut in the Windows Start Menu click in the right mouse button and select “Run as administrator”, then execute the script in that console.

Topic: Trac / Plugin does not appear

Hi,

Yes, please run the script and then restart the servers. BitNami Trac 0.12.2-1 was configured with mod_python and it was necessary to do this step. Check the README.txt file, section 8.3.1 Installing Trac plugins and Python eggs – NOTE FOR WINDOWS USERS.

Topic: Trac / Plugin does not appear

Hi,

Could you post the exact steps that you followed? Which version of the BitNami Trac Stack did you use? Could you use the latest one? It is 0.12.2-1 and it is configured with mod_wsgi. This introduced some improvements when installing plugins. If you are using an older version of the stack it would be configured with mod_python and you may need to execute the update_mod_python_libs.bat script.

Topic: Trac / Trac Stack with PostgreSQL please

Hi,

Are you using the latest BitNami Trac Stack? It is 0.12.2-1. I tried the following and worked for me:

1.- Install PostgreSQL (using the official installer)
2.- Download “psycopg2:http://www.stickpeople.com/projects/python/win-psycopg/psycopg2-2.4.1.win32-py2.6-pg9.0.4-release.exe”. Install it with:
\python\scripts\easy_install.exe \path\to\psycopg2-xxxx.exe
3.- Check that psycopg2 have been correctly installed. Execute “python” and then “import psycopg2” you should not see any error.
4.- Create the trac project.
5.- Restart apache.

Topic: Trac / Plugins in windows trac

Hi,

Can you remove the c:\program files\bitnami trac stack\python\libe\site-packages\tracaccountmanager-0.3dev_r10294-py2.5.egg file and try to install it again?

That error usually means that the .egg file is not a valid .zip format, it may may have been corrupted.

Please let us know if this solves your issue or not.

Thanks.

Topic: Trac / Plugins in windows trac

Hi,

I think that you need to execute the update_mod_python_libs script and then restart the server. That should be enough.

Topic: Trac / Unable to see User Management Plugin

Hi,

If you installed the plugin using the easy_install script, this plugin have been installed as a global plugin and it will not appear in the plugin folder of the project.

Topic: Trac / upgrade from bitnami trac 0.11 to 0.12

Hi Mike,

One comment on the second method. If you are using Windows, after you copy the files you will need to install the services (you can use the entry in the Start Menu). In any case, as mentioned, I think that the first method will be better in your case.

Topic: Trac / upgrade from bitnami trac 0.11 to 0.12

As you are going to use a new machine, I think that the best solution in your case would be to install the new version of the BitNami Trac Stack (it includes several improvements) and then migrate the data. I have found this guide for migrating Trac in the Trac documentation http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracMigrate

Another option would be just copying your current installation directory in the same location in the new machine and the upgrading only the Trac component following the trac upgrade guide http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracUpgrade

In both cases before executing the commands specified in the guide you should load the stack environment running the use_trac script if you are using Linux or Mac or using the “Use BitNami Trac Stack” link in the start menu if you are using Windows.

Hi,

There is not any additional setting. Which WordPress plugin are you trying to install? Could you post the exact steps that you are following and the exact error that you are receiving?

Topic: SugarCRM / Problem finding SugarCRM DB

Hi,

Did you install the BitNami SugarCRM Stack? If so it uses a MySQL database (not MS SQL). The BitNami SugarCRM Stack includes phpMyAdmin and you should be able to see the bitnami_sugarcrm database. Do you have any other MySQL instance running in the machine? Is it possible that you are connecting to a different MySQL server?
