 |
I attempted to use the instructions found here but failed in the final step. starting wordpress.
I am able to install and create a wordpress database in mariadb but any attempt to start the wordpress setup/install results in a "Forbidden 403" message.
Is something special required to start wordpress install?
attempting to connect using "http://my_ip_addr:81/wordpress" or various other permutations fail.
R9000 on r60137
entware installed on /opt mounted to ext4 harddrive
lighttpd default server on ports 81/443
using php8 from entware install.
| Code: |
server.dir-listing = "enable"
server.tag = "lighttpd/1.4.75"
server.bind = "0.0.0.0"
server.port = 81
server.document-root = "/jffs/www"
...
fastcgi.debug = 0
fastcgi.server = (".php" =>
( "localhost" =>
( "socket" => "/tmp/php-fcgi.sock",
#"bin-path" => "/usr/bin/php-cgi", #default
"bin-path" => "/opt/bin/php-cgi",
"max-procs" => 1,
"bin-environment" =>
(
"PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN" => "2",
"PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS" => "500"
)
)
)
)
#$HTTP["host"] =~ "(^|.)wordpress.example.com$" {
$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/wordpress($|/)" {
server.document-root = "/jffs/www/wordpress",
url.access-deny = (""),
setenv.set-response-header += ( "Strict-Transport-Security" => "max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains" )
}

All attempts to start any .php file inside '/jffs/www/wordpress' results in the 'Forbidden 403' message. If I remove the wordpress code from lighttpd.conf I get nothing not even 'Forbidden 403'. I have reviewed a dozen tutorials on installing wordpress on lightpd. All seem to closely echo what is stated above basically install mysql/mariadb, create database, unzip wordpress to desired location, point browser to that location and wordpress starts.
I feel I am missing something basic about wordpress install.
I am confident lighttpd is working as nextcloud and phpmyadmin both run fine when I start them from /jffs/www/... only wordpress php's give this error.
This seems like a permissions error to me but all file permissions look correct 755/644.
I've tried various different server.document-root locations.
If anyone has successfully done this I'd appreciate some help in this last step.
btw no logs (lighttpd, wordpress, php) I've scanned seem to indicate anything useful. but maybe I'm looking at wrong ones.
thanks |
