Initial install

Hello/Hi/Greetings,

I just installed 14.50

I uploaded piwigo to my domain folder.

The instructions:

https://piwigo.org/guides/install/manual

say point the web browser to the domain/folder where piwigo is.

It showed nothing.   I looked at the ftp software after saw the uploaded fies and folders.

I saw an install folder.   I looked inside and saw a install.php file

I pointed to that file with my browser.

I got the set up page.  So I entered the proper details, and the system said that the install was good.  I was asked to upload photos, or click below so I could go inside and add photos later.

When I did that,  got a blank screen.

I went to the domain location with the browser, and piwigo was not displaying either.   I get the generic index page.

(Copy here your environment details, found on your Piwigo page [Administration > Tools > Maintenance])
(I can not see anything, so I can not get this info)


Piwigo URL:
https://gallery.joespace.ca/

What might I have done wrong?

Thanks

Joseph

Re: Initial install

Hello

I was looking again in my piwigo folder.

I found a:
index.html file

and a
index.php  file

If I point to index.php, piwigo works,

The .html file was in the folder by default.   

If I get rid of the .html file will the .php file be used?

Or, how to so get the server to read the .php gile?

Thanks

Joseph

Re: Initial install

Hello smokinjo

Create a .htaccess file and insert the following:

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
DirectoryIndex index.php

Re: Initial install

in the Root Directory of PIWIGO (/piwigo) .htaccess please with dot in front!


Info:

The htaccess file is a text file that contains instructions for a server. It is processed before the page is accessed without the server having to be restarted. The htaccess is mostly used for redirecting a domain or URL.

Re: Initial install

Thanks!

I added the file

I then got an error:

-----------------

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator at webmaster@gallery.joespace.ca to inform them of the time this error occurred, and the actions you performed just before this error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

What might this be from?

Thanks

Re: Initial install

Your  "index.html" says:

Code:

This is the default index page of your website.

This file may be deleted or overwritten without any difficulty. This is produced by the file index.html in the web directory.

Delete or rename it and delete the ".htaccess", too --> the "index.php" should be launched.

Otherwise follow these instructions:

Code:

For questions or problems please contact support.
