/demo-app/backend/installer/install/index was not found on this server.

I noticed that another user had the same issue. I tried to figure what they did and couldnt get it to work.

I am running on Ubuntu 14.04 PHP 5-5-59.1 MySQL

I installed yii2-app-advanced-startup-kit changed common/config/main.php to include my db settings ran sudo php init ran sudo ./yii migrate then opened up a browser window to http://host/demo-app/ and I got the page with two circles on it selected the install circle and got the /demo-app/backend/installer/install/index was not found on this server tried http://host/demo-app/backend/ and got the same result

I have tried composer update to make sure all dependencies are up to date.

I would appreciate some ideas on how to resolve this. Thanks

First of all, you should never include db settings manually. This error is shown only when you have not properly initialized your app.

Ok I deleted my earlier attempt and created a new demo-app by composer I ran sudo php init set it for a development env and when I went to http://host/demo-app I got this error msg Database Exception – yii\db\Exception SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user 'www-data'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

Which lead me earlier to putting in the db information. What should I do instead ?

Navigate to http://host/demo-app/backend instead

when I goto http://host/demo-app/backend I get this error msg The requested URL /demo-app/backend/installer/install/index was not found on this server.

I found the issue , I had not setup Apache2 apache2.conf for AllowOverride All and enabled rewrite. After I made these changes everything worked. Thanks
