No display on my web browser

Post by tot94 » Tue Dec 29, 2015 12:58 pm

Hello,

I try install Joomla! on my Ubuntu server.
So I have pasted the bundle at /var/www/html like this :

root@osboxes:/home/osboxes# ls /var/www/html/
administrator images libraries plugins web.config.txt
cache includes LICENSE.txt README.txt
cli index.php logs robots.txt.dist
components joomla.xml media templates
htaccess.txt language modules tmp

I activate my webserver :
root@osboxes:/home/osboxes# service apache2 start

But when I try to connect on the web page :
No configuration file found and no installation code available. Exiting...

What's wrong ??

Thanks :)

You don't have the installation folder. Download one more time the install archive and try again.

Hmm I have technical issues ..

Do you know how I make my database support to be at "Yes" ?
What did refer the other "No" ? To the configuration.php ?

Thanks

EDIT 1 :
For the 1st "No", on Ubuntu you need to install these packages :
apt-get install php5-mysql php5-curl :)
I'm working on the second issue

EDIT 2 :
I think my 2nd issue is about configuration.php from not being writeable
But when I'm looking for it :

root@osboxes:/# locate configuration.php

It is not find... Why ??

I make some steps, but at the end it says "Congratulations! Joomla! is now installed". But I still have to make the configuration.php file and to remove the installation folder :

2 questions :

-Where do I put this configuration.php file : /var/www ? /var/www/html ?

-Which installation folder are they talking about ?
This one :

root@osboxes:/var/www/html# ls
administrator images joomla.xml media templates
cache includes language modules tmp
cli index.php libraries plugins web.config.txt
components installation LICENSE.txt README.txt
htaccess.txt Joomla_2.5.27-Stable-Full_Package.zip logs robots.txt.dist

Because I remove it at the first installation and it results in an 404 error when I've tried to access at the webpage again...

configuration.php must be created in /var/www/html
looks like you already removed the installation folder, this one should've been at /var/www/html/installation
You should take a look also here: https://docs.joomla.org/Beginners
