Cannot find config.lua

[Aerwix]

I asked support on OTBR discord and my messages just got deleted, so I came here to ask support since you are the creator :P

Okay so, Im running a fresh installation in Ubuntu 22.04 and everything was fine until the localhost/install part.

For a strange reason Im getting this message on both verisons (OTBR and yours) so I believe It's something I did wrong.

• I changed config.lua credentials and tested phpmyadmin connection.
• Gave permissions that were needeed.
• My server is located on /home/funeralot/canary but I'm having some doubts now bc it never recognized 😵

Hello! I don't know if you managed to fix it, but I had your same problem. I just had to use the following commands:

sudo chmod +x /home
sudo chmod +x /home/user
sudo chmod +x /home/user/canary
sudo chmod +x /home/user/canary/config.lua

After that, the installation helper did work.

Thanks for your suggestions, I gave up and installed everything on windows.

I will install virtual box and test it again bc I was using a paid vps so I cancelled :P

+x gives execute capabilieties to given dir or file. So it definitely isn't good way to go. I think, php user doesn't have permissions to access those files
