FA error during installation

jmele

I'm getting this same error. Is this issue fixed if following these instructions? https://flarum.org/docs/install.html#server-requirements

jordanjay29

jmele What version of Flarum do you run? This was fixed in Beta 8.2, and is not an issue in Beta 9.

jmele

jordanjay29 Whatever is installed when I follow the instructions I linked.

jordanjay29

jmele Please either run php flarum info or visit the Dashboard of your Administrator page to view the Flarum version installed.

jmele

There is no administration page as I got this error and that's all that displays. php flarum info returns nothing except " Command "info" is not defined."

My question is - what version is installed if you run the commands at the link I provided. I tried also the upgrade commands just in case but I get Command "migrate" is not defined.

jordanjay29

jmele Can you run ls -lA on your Flarum root folder?

jmele

jordanjay29 Yes. What am I looking for?

jordanjay29

jmele Please run the command and paste the output here.

During install, it said - Installing flarum/flarum (v0.1.0-beta.9): Loading from cache

jmele You do not have Flarum installed. I'm not certain how you could have possibly encountered the error as described in the first post.

If you need help with installation, I'm happy to split this out into its own discussion, though.

jmele

After I enter the db credentials to try to install Flarum I get "An error occurred while trying to load this page." If I turn on debug then I see the error about Font Awesome.

jordanjay29

jmele ~~Can you copy/paste the entire error here please?~~ You did above.

And can you check if storage/logs/flarum<today>.log exists? If so, please paste the output from that, or upload it somewhere (pastebin) where we can see it.

jmele

That is my mistake. The error is similar to that other thread but the error is different.

Filefontawesome.lessnot found. in variables.less

jmele Can you run php flarum install from the Flarum root (or public) folder, and see if that method works?

It might be an issue during installation itself.
