Hi, i just installed phpBB3 (i was running phpBB2 package)
And wanted to convert the database, only to find out that debian doesn't package the install folder.
I copied the installfolder from a source package, to be able to run the convertor script, but it doesn't work.
It returns an error.

[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /install/install_convert.php on line 125: install_convert::require(./../includes/db/.php) [install-convert.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory

Fatal error: install_convert::require() [function.require]: Failed opening required './../includes/db/.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /usr/share/phpbb3/www/install/install_convert.php on line 125

I have tried to set up multiple virtual hosts on my development server at home which is a debian lenny and none of the tutorials I have found on the net have worked. Has someone successfully done this?

Hello, the short description of the problem: running a debian 5.0.4 on VPS on linode from one of their image. Installed as per manual apache 2 and php 5 as module. All works, the server has no load issue but when I ask a page or even a single image of site it takes more than 10 seconds to be served. After the first request is served the sub sequentrequest from the samebrowser (like images in referenced by html page) comes quickly.
On another VPS with debian lenny, apparently same configuration, all works.

Hiya,
I am creating a new LAMP setup on a Debian Lenny VPS; It is for public exposure to the real world WWW, not just internal use. I installed phpmyadmin because I suck at command line MySql. I won't need to actually use phpmyadmin very often, maybe once a month or so. I'd like to enable/ disable www phpmyadmin access.

I noticed the symlink in /etc/apache2/conf.d/ "phpmyadmin.conf"

Would removing/ and re-enabling this symlink work? (Drawback: have to restart apache2 every time this is done.) What would those commands look like, exactly?

I'd appreciate any help or insight on how to go about this. Thanks!

Hello debian community,

I made a big miss on my system, a debian stable web, printer, ftp server... I was checking some stuffs in the website server when I saw that a lot of files were world writable and it was not necessary. therefore I decide to remove it and typed chmod -Rv o-w / path/to/myserver/* and as you can seen I made the terrible miss to insert a f***ing space after the root slash. Moreover after entering the command I just leaved the computer alone and when I came back I was helpless just hoping that there will be not too much damage. I backed up the wiki hosted and some data, reboot and pray.
Now the wiki, mediawiki doesn't work. Also when login bash gave an error /dev/null not found that I fixed by chmod o+w /dev/null.
