Unable to access setup on Wordpress site #1204

Open MarieAnnick opened 3 years ago

MarieAnnick commented 3 years ago

Version: 2.2.0

Installation URL: 138.197.150.223/abc/

Is your installation hosted on brewcompetition.com or brewcomp.com? no

Description of Issue: Previously ran the software on a straight debian setup, but they want the software hosted on a wordpress platform for a particular plugin. Attempting to access index.php or setup.php returns a 404 error. So far, I've attempted to alter the .htaccess file with and without the /abc subfolder and adding a base folder in config.php as well as deleting the .htaccess file since WP has its own about three directories back. I'm sure this is something as simple as putting the folder in the right place, but Wordpress documentation seems to pretend that people don't want to run non-wordpress stuff on their domains and is unhelpful in this regard.

For enhancements, please prepend "Enhancement - " to the title. For issues/bugs, please prepend the BCOE&M version number the title.

I use subdomain for BCOEM installs our wordpress site. Does a better job of avoiding collision with WP:

Eg. https://brewslam.gtabrews.ca/

I figured it was going to be something like that. Do I have to mess around with a new SQL database or can I use the existing one?

I usually do a fresh install of the latest stable BCOEM version and create a new SQL database per comp, but at the same subdomain address. That way I have archives of past comps.

@ercousin What process do you follow to setup BCOEM alongside Wordpress? I'm having some issues, and I hate to tag into an old thread, but getting a bit desperate and crowdsourced support for BCOEM doesn't seem to exist...

MarieAnnick commented 3 months ago

We set up a separate website specifically for the BCOEM and the database. WordPress doesn't play nice with it.

Seems I fixed it. I was struggling with the vhost setup for the subdomain, but got it sorted. Also had to reconfigure the bcoem config to not use a subdirectory, and fix permissions, yadda yadda...

Pain in the rear :(

Yep! I use a subdomain and it works great with wordpress on my main domain.

I can also host many BCOEM installs at once by giving a subdomain for each.
