Installing Flarum on Hostinger

LinuxLefty

Have you tried following the installation guide?

What errors were you getting?

ThomasLewis

Run

ls -a

Delete any dot files (.foo, e.g.)

ThomasLewis

[deleted] have you tried something like

composer create-project flarum/flarum ./flarum —stability=beta

from one level up, making sure ./flarum doesn’t already exist?

[deleted] ls -la

There are files, they're just hidden.

ThomasLewis

Change the em-dash to two -‘s.

ThomasLewis

The ./flarum will make it install to <current_directory>/flarum

ThomasLewis

rm -rf ./flarum

That will remove the directory and all of its contents. Then try again.

ThomasLewis

The base files are. Now you need to create a database and a user with full access to it. Then navigate to http://yourdomain.com/path/to/forum and follow the instructions.

ThomasLewis

Define ‘weird’.

ThomasLewis

There’s a base Flarum install there with no configuration. You now have to log in, set up your tags, colors, etc.

ThomasLewis

Yep. Then you go to “Extensions” in the admin panel and enable them.

ThomasLewis

Run

pwd

If it returns anything but the root directory of your install, then type

cd path/to/forum

and try again.

ThomasLewis

[deleted] Nope. I haven’t been able to get Bazaar to work. Try posting over in the extension thread for it.

If you have access to SSH/Composer and Bazaar doesn't work right, just use Composer to install extensions instead. It's still the official way of installing extensions ?

Looks like you've run out of memory. Upgrade to composer 2, it's a lot faster and more efficient
