Flarum quickstart for the openshift platform

Rrr

Not really a "quickstart" but make it little bit easy to try flarum on openshift. Here https://github.com/Jelenadria/openshift-flarum-quickstart

martiboy

Rrr Can you explain how this works?
Also I would like to host my own source. Is your source exact same as core repo or have you modified it?

martiboy

Rrr
Please tell me how can I make changes to Flarum codebase and have deployed to an installation created using this quickstart.

Also How do I set my domain? where is the config file?

datitisev

martiboy Where you set the domain has nothing to do with the config file. You do that from the graphical interface.

Follow this steps:

martiboy

datitisev Yeah I have done that. The app works fine, but the link pointing to admin panel, it has original url (openshift subdomain) and not my domain. Also if i open customdomain/admin i am not able to save settings. so i thought its a config file issue?

datitisev

martiboy Oh, change the url field in config.php. I'm guessing config.php will be located in www

martiboy

datitisev strangely i dont see it in www

datitisev

martiboy It should be there if it installed correctly... You can try re-creating an app, but only run through the process of setting up the Flarum forum after you have set up the custom domain, and set up Flarum from that custom domain.

martiboy I see it on the server. However how can i change this in code itself? so that it doesnt revert on next deploy

datitisev

martiboy Do git pull from your local version, edit www/config.php, and deploy new changes.

martiboy

It says uptodate. Still no config file in local. I think something to do with Vagrant and all.

datitisev

martiboy Did you do git pull on local?

If it still doesn't work, do the following:

Run git fetch origin
Run git merge origin/master
Edit config.php
Commit changes and push

martiboy the config.php file is in the server but not on the git repository.

but if you create one, it will be pushed there. I did this to stop it from losing this file on every deploy.

martiboy

datitisev Thanks datitisev, But it doesnt work. I think its because the original repo doesnt have the config files. Vagrant generates them probably on the server so i cant get them to local. Doing it from scratch will solve it. however I need to know how this works.

Rrr

martiboy ssh to your app. rhc ssh myappname And backup config files in /app-root/repo/www to your local repo then push it again.

martiboy

Rrr How can I run it in local for testing? Also How can I run a customized version of flarum instead?

candlejack

It worked well for me. I just had to create the php-sessions directory on the server to fix a problem of error 500 when I clicked logout.
