Yesterday i installed Farum in my subdomain https://forum.storiespedia.com/
Whenever i try to install a theme via my cpanel Terminal it gives me some short of error...

``
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

Problem 1
- intervention/image[2.5.0, ..., 2.7.2] require ext-fileinfo * -> it is missing from your system. Install or enable PHP's fileinfo extension.
- serakoi/flarumdiscordtheme 0.1.0 requires flarum/core ¹.0.0 -> satisfiable by flarum/core[v1.0.0, ..., v1.3.0].
- flarum/core[v1.1.0, ..., v1.3.0] require intervention/image 2.5.* || ².6.1 -> satisfiable by intervention/image[2.5.0, ..., 2.7.2].
- flarum/core[v1.0.0, ..., v1.0.4] require intervention/image ².5.0 -> satisfiable by intervention/image[2.5.0, ..., 2.7.2].
- Root composer.json requires serakoi/flarumdiscordtheme ⁰.1.0 -> satisfiable by serakoi/flarumdiscordtheme[0.1.0].

To enable extensions, verify that they are enabled in your .ini files:
- /opt/alt/php73/etc/php.ini
- /opt/alt/php73/link/conf/alt_php.ini
You can also run php --ini inside terminal to see which files are used by PHP in CLI mode.

Installation failed, deleting ./composer.json. ``

in my error.log I fond this :-

PARADOX require ext-fileinfo * -> it is missing from your system. Install or enable PHP's fileinfo extension

This seems to be the first problem. You need to install and/or enable the PHP fileinfo extension.

If you managed to install Flarum on the same host previously, maybe it means you changed the PHP version for the command line (the same error should have prevented installation in the first place)? The PHP extension needs to be enabled for this particular PHP version (7.3 CLI)

While making sure the PHP extensions are enabled, you should also make sure you are using the same PHP version for the command line (CLI) and the webserver, as sometimes 2 different PHP versions are used. If you are on a managed hosting there's usually one global setting for the command line and one setting per host for the webserver.

The log file also seems to indicate file permission errors that prevent Flarum from writing into the <flarum>/storage directory.

i Managed to on that extension and in terminal i run this ;-

composer require afrux/asirem
composer require sycho/flarum-advanced-extension-categories

all goes fine..............
but what i notice that the theme hasen't changed at all.
and it's my 1st experience with flarum , i am totally new or noob to this platform.
If you guide me at this point i will be obliged . Thank You Sir

luceos

PARADOX once you installed something with composer you need to enable it from the admin area of Flarum still. Have you done that?

PARADOX

luceos
No , where is that option in admin control panel of flarum ? With what title this option is named ?

luceos

PARADOX every extension has its own tab, you should look for asirem, it should be under a section called themes on the left hand side in the admin area.

PARADOX

luceos

i am ready to give you admin access , can you please help me with this , i am still not getting that option

clarkwinkelmann

If nothing appears in the admin panel, make sure you are running the Composer commands in the correct directory (the one containing composer.json file, flarum file and vendor folder)

PARADOX

clarkwinkelmann

my flarum website is in my subdomain , what shoud be the composer command for installing that theme ?

clarkwinkelmann

PARADOX it doesn't really matter if the website is in a subdomain, subfolder or other. Just look for the folder that contains all 3 of those files.

(if you previously ran the command in the wrong folder, it will have created a composer.json and vendor in the wrong location, so look for flarum and config.php as extra verification)

From your additional message, that location is very likely /home3/storiesp/public_html/forum/

PARADOX

my directory paths in site.php is

'base' => '/home3/storiesp/public_html/forum/',
'public' => '/home3/storiesp/public_html/forum/',
'storage' => '/home3/storiesp/public_html/forum/storage',

PARADOX

clarkwinkelmann

wait u said don't run the command in wrong folder , i am not familliar with the commander or composer

i just open my hosting cpanel and there is 'Terminal' , i just went there and i paste that installation command
composer require afrux/asirem and composer require sycho/flarum-advanced-extension-categories

and that's it ohh yes i checked it right now there is a folder named vender in my home directory which shoud be in my subforum directory

clarkwinkelmann

PARADOX use the cd command to change directory inside of the terminal, like cd /home3/storiesp/public_html/forum/. Then you can run Composer.
