Hi all,

I am trying to install Oxwall 1.3.2 in Amazon Cloud Server (not just the static content).

When I enter myIPaddress in the browser and press Enter key to install, the site path is redirected to myIPaddress/install/requirements with the below message.

Not Found

The requested URL /install/requirements was not found on this server.

Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) Server at 23.23.227.135 Port 80


But when I tried myIPaddress/index.php its getting redirected to http://23.23.227.135/index.php/install where it asks for the installation details. But the CSS is not applied correctly.

Also all the paths refer to myIPaddress/index.php as the base.

I am not sure other 2 issues in forum are solved.

Thanks. Just now finally managed to solve this myself.

so basically your site failed to install because your server did not meet the requirements of whats needed to host oxwall.


404's oon most scripts usually boil down to mod_rewrite, did your error logs not tell you anything?

Mark,

The mod_rewrite was already enabled.

The problem is with the "AllowOverride" value. I guess this is a common problem in Ubuntu. Now I have installed Oxwall successfully.

Please refer to the above link. It might be useful to others too.
