The first time I installed this I followed the instructions on https://flarum.org/docs/installation/
I created a database "flarium" and a mysql user and password.
I add the nginx config supplied on that page and I end up with the following nginx config.
server {
listen 80;
# ipv6only causes major major restart issues
listen [::]:80; # ipv6only=on;
server_name forum.spiritual-archeology.space;

My config.php file is:
<?php return array (
'debug' => true,
'database' =>
array (
'driver' => 'mysql',
'host' => 'localhost',
'database' => 'flarum',
'username' => '<snip>',
'password' => '<snip>',
'charset' => 'utf8mb4',
'collation' => 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci',
'prefix' => 'fla_',
'port' => '3306',
'strict' => false,
),
'url' => 'http://forum.spiritual-archeology.space',
'paths' =>
array (
'api' => 'api',
'admin' => 'admin',
),
);
First time I installed I got the error "Something went wrong while trying to load the full version of the site".
Now I just get 404 errors
also the logs from nginx logs (rather long) I added to this pastebin
https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4CXRd7zPvK/
Surely my experience is unique and first time installs dont go this horribly wrong. Is there a step I missed.
I also checked file permissions and I set file ownership to www-data for all the files.
Any ideas?
