HOWTO - Install Flarum on Synology NAS

chrix

Very short HOWTO to celebrate my incoming in this nice community ?

Validate with :

Flarum 0.1.0-beta.5

Synology DS1511+

DSM 6.0-7321 Update 7

Before / Required :

DSM : Check SSH access

DSM : Check PHP / PHAR extension activate.

Web Station : add Virtual Host with APACHE (not nginx)

Check PHPMYADMIN package / Create flarum DB / Flarum user / etc...

So, let's go :

Start following Flarum install process

If having warning/errors during Flarum install, try with --ignore-platform-reqs directive :

composer create-project flarum/flarum . --stability=beta --ignore-platform-reqs

After composer finish computing, try access flarum, (browse ex: http://mydomain.tld/myflarum)

If talking about chmod on flarum folder, assets/, storage/, etc... goto SSH / flarum folder :

chmod . 777
chmod 777 assets/ -R
chmod 777 storage/ -R

chmod 775 is not enough for Synology brain :/

War is over.
Enjoy.

PS : same error/warning with composer when installing French package. Same problem, same method : --ignore-platform-reqs
