I have LAMP server running and I've been using root account download files into

/var/www/html/websites/example.com. Right now all the folders/files are owned by root.

Is it better to make a normal user account and give that account r/w/x access to /var/www/html/websites

or /var/www/html/websites/example.com .So that I'm not doing everything with root user cuz I think that's

probably an unsafe practice?

 

And I have Joomla installed and my folders rights are set to 755 which but when I try to install a joomla

component or template I get the following error: Warning: Failed to move file! I know this has to do with

rights not being set right cuz I googled it.

But I don't quite get it cause as far as I can see all my folder permissions are set right, but when I check joomla system information->

Directory permissions they all say unwritable. Maybe it has to do with my first question? According to joomla-documentation

files should be set to 644 and folders to 755. And I'm not comfortable setting the folder permissions to 777.

I have my apache and virtualhost setup same as in this post

After this I installed phpmyadmin, by downloaded it and untaring it and renaming the folder to phpmyadmin. And I restarted apache and testet it: http://myip/phpmyadmin.

phpmyadmin wasn't working. I then tried commented out my virtual host and I restarted apache and again I tested http://myip/phpmyadmin and it worked. So how come

phpmyadmin works when I'm not using my virtual domain and when I do it doesn't work?

I'm trying to get virtual hosts working on Apache.

 

In /etc/httpd/conf/http.conf it says that: DocumentRoot "/var/www/html". So I think that's the place where Apache will be looking for your website files.

 

I made a virtualhost:

 

NameVirtualHost ipadress:80

 

# Custom virtualhosts

 

<virtualhost ipadress:80></virtualhost>

ServerAlias www.feedmebits.nl

ServerAdmin maarten@feedmebits.nl

DocumentRoot feedmebits.nl

ServerName feedmebits.nl

ErrorLog logs/feedmebits.nl-error_log

#CustomLog logs/host.some_domain.com-access_log common



 

in /var/www/html/ I made two directories so it looks like this:

/var/www/html/websites/feedmebits.nl

 

 

When I restart Apached it restarts but gives me an error:

Starting httpd: Warning: DocumentRoot [/etc/httpd/feedmebits.nl] does not exist

 

When I try and make a directory in /etc/httpd/feedmebits.nl and restart apache I don't get the error message.

And when I try making putting feedmebits.nl in a sub directory: /etc/httpd/websites/feedmebits.nl I also get

an the same error message.

I don't quite understand this because isn't it supposed to go to DocumentRoot which is /var/www/html and if I added

directories in there and mentioned it in my virtual host, isn't it supposed to see it? Why am I getting an error?

Don't quite understand?

 

Another thing I noticed, is that when I have my virtualhost enabled, and try to go to my test.php which is in /var/www/html/test.php

It doesn't work anymore either. When I add it to /etc/httpd/feedmebits.nl, it works again.

I have a dedicated server and I want to be able to run virtual pc's from the commandline. I know there's virtualbox

and vmware, but is it possible to run and control virtualization software from the command line. Or are there other

options available. I did a bit of searching on google but didn't get further than vmware and virtualbox and openvz.

Anyone have experience with this?

What do you think of Gnome 3? I think it looks nice but when I tried I often had parts of

gnome3 crashing. I still prefer normal gnome.

 

Here's what Linux Torvalds thinks about Gnome3

What do you think of gnome3?

backup your data first then... login as root and do a yum -y update, that tells fedora to update itself

 

Quote:[anyweb@localhost ~]$ su -Password:

[root@localhost ~]# yum -y update

Quote:[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/redhat-releaseFedora release 15 (Lovelock)

I'm getting a new mobile phone with Android on it :)

 

What do you think?

This is what my current desktop looks like. Running on Debian 6. After having used serveral

different Linux distributions I like Debian the most.

 

So, I was taking out my stuff from my mother's attic the other week and found my first computer. It's a Intel Celeron @ 500mhz, 128mb (looking to remedy that), 4.75gb HDD, cd drive. I'll be adding a 320gb HDD in it as well. I was just wondering what would be the best Linux distro, and programs would be best to put on it?

 

I'm looking into as many of these little features as possible (listed in importance):

• Headless machine
  
  
• File storage
  
  
• Media server stream my music to my computers and Xbox 360
  
  
• Remote file access
