Flarum Management (Script)

Chope

Kulga
Working fine, thanks.

Thanks for the great script, but when I try to execute it on my Ubuntu 16.04 compute engine, it says can not locate php7.0-curl, php7.0-dom ..... and about 8 packages, it can not find. What may be the problem?

Kulga

tarvos21 How did you call it? What are the exact errors.

The script explicitly calls for those to be installed if you run it with -i

 sudo apt-get install \
        nginx-full \
        mysql-server \
        mysql-client \
        php7.0-curl \
        php7.0-gd \
        php7.0-cli \
        php7.0-mysql \
        php7.0-mbstring \
        php7.0-dom \
        php7.0-fpm \
        pwgen \
        zip \
        unzip \
git

Kulga Thanks, I don't know why the script can not locate those packages. I just run it like: ./flarum_management.sh -if domain.com

After several hours of trying, I find that, if I install php manually by 'sudo apt-get install php-fpm php-mysql' before the script, there will be no problem, it works great.

So now I will first install Nginx, MySQL, PHP on Ubuntu 16.04, then I run the script with '-if' flag, it work as expected like this finally. And I can also remove one domain totally.

Great script!

tarvos21 If possible, seeing actual errors or output would go a long way to fixing this for others and preventing hours of guessing for people who are trying to use it ❗
Otherwise, I'm stuck guessing the possible cause.
Also, what host were you using?

tarvos21

Kulga I am using Google Could Compute Engine instance, but now I cannot reproduce the problem.

Another problem, I tried to rename the domain after installing flarum, but it does not work. I change the nginx configuration file and sites-available directory, and the /var/www/flarum/ directory. When I go to the new domain in browser, it just gives an error. If I install flarum and want to change the domain, what do I need to do?

Kulga

tarvos21 check sites-enabled, not sites-available.
This script uses the domain as part of its database name as well, I would check to make sure that's updated as well.
Ideally, if it's a new install, just remove it and reinstall using the new name.

When I go to the new domain in browser, it just gives an error

As always, stating there is a error is not as helpful as providing the exact error itself ?

Su1pa

I understand how to use this new script... :/

can u help?

Kulga

Su1pa You mean you don't understand how to use the script?

I have provided many examples under Usage examples: If anything in particular is unclear, please let me know.

### Invoke help message
./flarum_management
./flarum_management -h

You will need some experience navigating a command line in linux. This script will help make it easier but it will not completely replace the need to use the command line.

I just ran this script file on my VPS and receiver an error message at the end:

- The following errors were reported by the server:

Domain: my-domain
Type: unauthorized
Detail: Invalid response from
http://my-domain/.well-known/acme-challenge/m9Y_9g9nFUyp9h_XNg7sYeh c7fvzfb92NVkNzSRB1iY:
"<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>404 Not Found</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Not Found</h1>
<p"

To fix these errors, please make sure that your domain name was
entered correctly and the DNS A/AAAA record(s) for that domain
contain(s) the right IP address.
- Your account credentials have been saved in your Certbot
configuration directory at /etc/letsencrypt. You should make a
secure backup of this folder now. This configuration directory will
also contain certificates and private keys obtained by Certbot so
making regular backups of this folder is ideal.

Kulga

icecore How did you run the command?

For example:

./flarum_management -if domain.tld

It looks like you trying using ssl.
What OS, version extra info like that?

icecore

Kulga Problem solver by running installation again with

./flarum_management -i

Hi! Thank you for the script! It looks great!

I am using DigitalOcean $10 VPS. On a clean VPS (Ubuntu 16.06 64) I used following commands:

wget 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kulga/flarummanagement/master/flarum_management' -O flarum_management
chmod u+x flarum_management
./flarum_management -if workingclubs.co

Then I opened my domain name and provided mysql settings from the console.
After I pressed Save button I get "504 Getway timeout."

Are there any ideas why it happened?

Kulga

I would suggest checking /var/log/nginx/error.log and posting relevant portions with sensitive info (like ip addresses) redacted. I'm not sure otherwise.

Kulga

Update

Updated to work on 17.10 (Mostly just a increment from php7.0 -> 7.1)
Verified to function on minimal Ubuntu 17.10 droplet (1024MB)
- Initial Install of LEMP
- Installation of Flarum install
- Creating incremental backups and restoral
- SSL configuration (you'll need to modify your config.json to have https.domain.tld

cant seem to get it working on ubuntu 16.04. add me on discord if you can help Robert Wilding#8004

Kulga

Sorry about that, it should be fixed now.

Unfortunately, ubuntu is incrementing the php versions, so what is working on 17.10 won't work on 16.04, unless I can get some reliable OS version detection

Edit: I'm changing some things on there to make it work better with ubuntu 16.04 & 17.10

Edit2:
Script should work fine for Ubuntu 16.04 and 17.10 automatically now (using lsb_release -r)
@luceos also kindly pulled a request for fixing a variable name I forgot to update ?

RobertWilding

line 554 install flarum not found

and same for initial install, any help would be amazing!

RobertWilding

Kulga line 273 ssl install not found
thanks for the updates, id like to get in touch with you if possible

also when i try to remove a site it says not removing (domain)

Kulga

RobertWilding
Ah.. I didn't test SSL because it required a valid address (versus just a ip address)
A little while back I changed several variable names to clarify exactly what it was installing, however obviously I neglected to update them throughout.

Anyways, I've now gone through and updated them and tested every single option to success.

-i successfully installs Ubuntu 16.04 (php7.0) or Ubuntu 17.10 (php7.1) packages
-f successfully installed SITENAME
-s modifier successfully installs lets encrypt, adds ssl config, acquires certificate, adds cron entry for automatic updates, removal of certificate with -r
-r successful removal of site (fixed if check >.>)
-b successful backing up of site and database, subsequent runs successfully incrementally backs up site
-a successfully restores site and data from most recent backup

RobertWilding

Kulga i got it working on your script, very clean and easy. thanks for the fast updates. im going to be a very heavy user of this script.

Recommendation: If possible could you add a redirect so it can only be accessed through https?
