Hello to everyone!
I hope it's the right place for this question.
I tried to install Joomla on my web server . First I installed locally. For installing Joomla apache, php, mysql is needed. I installed all. After that joomla papackage must be ununpacked in the /var/www/http folder. Than an web installer tooks everything. When I installed locally I could open the web installer with a web browser (Mozilla), but when I tried to install on a remote server an error:

I don't know how to overcame this. To be more specific. Why locally I can open with Mozilla /var/www/http/joomla/index.php and from another computer I get the error message?

Thanks

Are you installing as root? From the commandline type: su now press enter, then input your root password and press enter again. To leave root mode type exit then press enter.

yes. I logged with ssh, then su install everything, open Mozilla and the ERROR. I don't understand why it works on my local machine but remotely no.

Make sure that the joomla directory is owned by apache:



or wherever joomla is. And then try again. Either that, or apache has access list preventing external access other than localhost IP.

Is your ssh server properly configured?
To install applications you either have to add the logged user to the "wheel" group, or allow root access (which is disabled by default). Su may look like working, but factly it isn't.
Checkout your sshd_config configuration file. Can you see something like



If it's like that, uncomment the #PermitRootLogin yes line.

If you haven't configured your sources, then do so via the Easy-Urpmi link. Then install joomla as root with: urpmi joomla

You may well get access denied when trying to complete the web based installation, here's how I did mine.

1. SSH into remote machine
2. Type: konqueror http://127.0.0.1/joomla

After a while the browser should open up and you can complete the installation.
