permessi apache per authpuppy

the cache files, and possibly the log files to, when created are done so as the apache user, thus you wont have permissions to do anything with them.

There is no real need to remove these files manually, the cache is cleared by running the command "php symfony cc" from the command prompt (when in authpuppys root directory) and they are also recycled when needed. if some files remain, they are usually cleaned up by doing a reboot of the server.

but I am unable to solve this problem to finish installation.
how can I do?
http://95.174.31.252/authpuppy/web/preinstall.php?step=2

what is the os of the machine? do you have command line access?

it is a machine I have here locally installed just for testing to do.
ubuntu server and have root access

if it is for testing, try running the command sudo chmod -R a+w <directory> e.g sudo chmod -R a+w /var/www/authpuppy/

if you put this into production, only do it to individual folders e.g. chmod -R a+w /var/www/authpuppy/cache/ you will also need to set the owner.

more information can be found: http://www.authpuppy.org/doc/Getting_Started

I did what you told me, did not come out no errors, but when I upgrade from preinstall.php still error. Why?

Apart from checking your apache config (again refer to http://www.authpuppy.org/doc/Getting_Started) I am at the peek of my knowledge...

the command: stat /var/www/authpuppy/
and: stat /var/www/authpuppy/cache/

may be useful, but I haven't had a problem with permissions like this in the past...

one other question is which version of authpuppy are you using? is it from the trunk, or the latest release?

I'm using the version "authpuppy-0.1.1-stable_core "

giving the command stat /var/www/authpuppy/

result:
Access (0777/drwxrwxrwx) Uid: (33/www-data) Gid : (33/www-data)

because it keeps saying can not access?

and stat /var/www/authpuppy/cache/

by the same result

is not that there's some problem on the script that controls the permissions?

I am pretty sure the script is working, it works fine on my servers...

2 more things you can try:

what is the output of the command: ps aux | grep apache

and does it work if you change the authpuppy folder to run as root: sudo chown -R root /var/www/authpuppy/

what is the output of the command: ps aux | grep apache :

root@ubuntu:~# ps aux | grep apache

"and does it work if you change the authpuppy folder to run as root: sudo chown -R root /var/www/authpuppy/"

NO nothing changes

unfortunately you have me stumped for the moment...

I'm sorry I did not understand? if you want I can give you private access to my ssh server testing.

Would your install have anything to do with this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/authpuppy/+bug/752585

If so, you should manually create the installed.txt file in the web/ directory, manually copy the file config/databases.yml.default to config/databases.yml and fill it with you db information, then go to the http://yourserver/install and complete the install process. It should work for now, until this bug is fixed.

Or put the authpuppy install at the root of your server...

now why didn't I think of that ;-p

I moved on the main page and it went well.
now I'm still here to http://95.174.31.252/web/install/3
error:

Not Found

The requested URL /web/install/3 was not found on this server.
Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu) Server at 95.174.31.252 Port 80

Yes and make sure to secure your installation, as right now, it is totally possible to access all your config files (for instance see http://95.174.31.252/lib/)

See the exemple apache configuration file at http://www.authpuppy.org/doc/Getting_Started

to solve the problem of the bugs before I moved all the files from / var / www / authpuppy /.... to / var / www /.... and resolved the issue of permits.
but now I find http://95.174.31.252/web/install/3. Why?

Thanks Robin Jones, that solved my question.
