Flarum API errors

Dayornight

I've followed every step trying to install Flarum and have succeeded doing so until I tried to change settings on the forums. I get an API error saying it cannot find the "api.php" and "admin.php". I think I know what the issue is. I checked the errors via my Cpanel and it's checking for the phps in the wrong directory.

It should actually be public_html/flarum/

I've tried a lot of things, but have no idea on how to fix this issue. Any help would be appreciated!

What is your server? Apache? Nginx?

Dayornight

Pretty sure it's Apache

Does your .htaccess have the correct path?

Dayornight

In this part?

<Directory "/path/to/your/forum">
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

Dayornight Yep!

I did not have to add this part for the installation of Flarum to work. If I add that part, I get a 404 not found.

Still having issues though. Any help would be appreciated!

I think I have got it working by going into etc/apache2/apache2.conf and making sure flarum has received all acces by adding this:
<Directory /your/path/to/flarum>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>

I think this solved it, but I will do some further testing to make sure.

After a day of working with Flarum, I can confirm that this has fixed the problem for me. I just wanted to say for anyone out there also having this issue that if you don't see "etc/apache2/apache2.conf" anywhere, you can just create it. Then paste this in apache2.conf:

<Directory /your/path/to/flarum>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>

Refresh your install page from Flarum and it should work now. If not, you can post something down below and I'm sure the administrators on this website will help you with your problem.

Edit 1: I also made sure to give the flarum folder 755 permission as well as index.php
