Installing ownCloud 9.0.1

alex.olynyk

Jareds guide works perfectly for 8. I upgraded to 9 from 8 and it hosed my VM.

I clean installed 9 using the guide on OC website first and then I tried Scott's guide with the same issue. I thought it was the OS so I installed 9 on Ubuntu Server 16 with the same issue.

Strange because I can install 8 just fine

@alex.olynyk Yeah, I'm having issues with 9.0.1.1 as well. Something's gone wrong in a setting file somewhere, hope I can work it out soon.

alex.olynyk

Thank goodness its not just me

Why not do a fresh install of 9.0.0 and then do the updates?

-- or does the Repo take you straight to 9.0.1?

alex.olynyk

the repos on owncloud.org are only for 9.0.1

whats weird is there used to be a config.php file in /var/www/html/owncloud/config
but its not there now

Also, check the paths in /etc/httpd/conf.d/owncloud.conf

alex.olynyk

Alias /owncloud "/var/www/html/owncloud/owncloud/"
<Directory "/var/www/html/owncloud/owncloud">
Options +FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All

SetEnv HOME /var/www/html/owncloud/owncloud
SetEnv HTTP_HOME /var/www/html/owncloud/owncloud
</Directory>

just in case if .htaccess gets disabled

Require all denied

</Directory>

<IfModule mod_dav.c>
Dav off
</IfModule>

SetEnv HOME /var/www/html/owncloud/owncloud
SetEnv HTTP_HOME /var/www/html/owncloud/owncloud
</Directory>

<Directory "/var/www/html/owncloud/owncloud/data/">

just in case if .htaccess gets disabled
Require all denied
</Directory>

Check this: "/var/www/html/owncloud/owncloud/"

Should it be /var/www/html/owncloud/owncloud? or /var/www/html/owncloud?

travisdh1

@dafyre Should be /var/www/html/owncloud.

If you see an owncloud directory inside of the main owncloud directory, try appending an additional /owncloud to the URL and see if that fixes things.

alex.olynyk

@travisdh1 That worked! Thank you! But now I get
The output of GETENFORCE is PERMISSIVE

travisdh1

@alex.olynyk Yeah, that's the same one I'm trying to work through. I need to open a bug report already for that path error in the apache config, so I'll add another one to my list.

i looked at Jareds post on setting up 8.2 and he said you cant create the MariaDB instance from the GUI so that might be the issue for me

travisdh1

@alex.olynyk It's most likely something wrong in the setup scripts. I don't know if it'll be glaringly obvious as the path error was or not yet.

that's correct you have to make the database manually and just put the details in here. You would need your database to exist and to be up and running. Otherwise the ownCloud instance does not have permission to access the database management system.

I don't believe that the scripts are supposed to handle any of that.

That's correct. If you follow my instructions here: http://mangolassi.it/topic/8399/installing-owncloud-9-on-centos-7 it explains that you have to make the database manually and when to do so and when to put in the details.

On mine, my database is external to the ownCloud instance so a big different than doing it locally. Same basics, of course.

It's throwing that error even after creating a new database and user for said database. From some of the errors I've been seeing, it looks like the script may not be reading the variable for the database username correctly.

So I've gotten to the point where you create the admin username/password, set the data folder location, and enter your database information. The database is ready, the user I created for it has full permissions for that database. The error is:

Error while trying to create admin user: Failed to connect to the database: An exception occured in driver: SQLSTATE[42000][1044] Access denied for user 'oc_admin'@'localhost' to database 'owncloud'

Well duh, 'oc_admin' is NOT what is entered in the Database user box.
