*.ld gives 404 not found

[uzkhan]

Hei Brian, firstly thanks for writing the script. I ran it and after all was done and some nginx configuration to make it work, when i tried going to xyz.ld, it would keep throwing this 404 not found error. All the files seem to be there but I guess some link is missing? Where precisely are the *.ld mappings defined? Any tips on how to go around fixing that. Thanks.

It's most likley that your network device wasn't one of the common names that I'm able to set automatically, check that your network settings have the DNS server set to 127.0.0.1

Please close the issue if that resolves it for you.

Hei Brian, the DNS is already set to 127.0.0.1. However I noticed that when I tried to start nginx while it was already running, it threw this warning: 'nginx: [emerg] bind() to 0.0.0.0:80 failed (48: Address already in use)'

I am guessing it should be running on 127.0.0.1 and if so, where exactly do we configure it for nginx. The nginx config file after install didnt seem to have any such setting. In fact, it wasn't running at all and I had to add the following lines to the config to make it work.

server { listen 80; server_name localhost;

location / {
    root   html;
    index  index.html index.htm;
} 
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
    root html;
}

}

[BrianGilbert]

based on the error you already had a service running on port 80..

0.0.0.0 means all IP addresses on the machine.

can you let me know what version of nginx got installed.

[uzkhan]

ah, ok and in this case it was nginx itself. the version of nginx is 1.4.1. I must mention here that going to localhost, I do get a message saying nginx is up and running. Its only that when I try going to aegir.ld or xyz.ld that I get a '404 not found'.

[uzkhan]

So I bumped into your walkthrough on youtube and noticed that my /etc/named.conf was missing the Google DNS forwarder setting along with zone 'ld' settings. I also had to manually create rndc.key and I am still not sure where you copied those settings in db.ld from. I am guessing I messed up the script setup at some point?

I tried reinstalling hostmaster and got this error: Drush was not able to start (bootstrap) the Drupal database. [error] Hint: This may occur when Drush is trying to:

The script is currently not designed for re-installation over the top of an existing borked install install. I don't have huge motivation to fix that at this stage as I have a working install, and I have a lot of other stuff on at the moment, I will at some stage, I just don't know when.

What you probably need to do is run a few commands before trying to run the hostmaster parts again: rm -rf ~/.drush/provision rm -rf /var/aegir/* drush cc drush

From memory I think that is all. If you can report back that would be great as it will help when I do get around to implementing some checking.

[uzkhan]

sorry, i got busy with some other stuff. i removed all that stuff and tried again but still the same 'Drush was not able to start (bootstrap) the Drupal database. [error]'

[BrianGilbert]

Script now has uninstall support, just run it again and it will ask if you want to uninstall

Has anyone fixed the issue of 404 when accessing aegir.ld ? I've installed it and this error is also happening to me.

Thanks

[BrianGilbert]

@chris-ti-an check the network settings for your devices that DNS is set to 127.0.0.1

[chrstnrql]

I'm on my wifi. My DNS is set to 127.0.0.1. It's still showing the 404 error. Thanks for the reply

[BrianGilbert]

@chris-ti-an please upload your install logfile to a new issue
