Hello OC-team I've taken a clean Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS image in virtualbox (downloaded yesterday), in attempt to repeat the installation instructions with rigour The server has OpenSSH server and LAMP server installed, and I ssh to it. LTS 12.04 has owncloud 3 installed, which does not contain all wanted features.
When issuing the first command: *sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 php5-json php-xml php-mbstring php5-zip php5-gd* I receive the following error messages: *Note, selecting 'php-common' instead of 'php-json'* *E: Unable to locate package php-xml* *E: Unable to locate package php-mbstring * *E: Unable to locate package php5-zip* proceeding with: *sudo apt-get install php5-sqlite curl libcurl3 libcurl3-dev php5-curl php-pdo* Returns the following messages: *Note, selecting 'libcurl4-openssl-dev' instead of 'libcurl3-dev'* *E: Unable to locate package php-pdo* In combination, with step 2.1: *wget http://mirrors.owncloud.org/releases/owncloud-4.5.5.tar.bz2 && \* *cd Downloads &&\* *tar -xjf owncloud-* &&\* *cp -r owncloud /var/www/ &&\* *firefox http:/127.0.0.1/owncloud &* ...Whereby I assume that /var/www is correct...(as no explicit instructions are given for the default installation directory...) Following these instructions will result in the browser (http:/ 127.0.0.1/owncloud) with the error-message *PHP module GD is not installed* Could somebody please cross check these instructions? For example php-xml could call: *php-xml-htmlsax3* *php-xml-parser * *php-xml-rpc * *php-xml-rpc2 * *php-xml-rss * *php-xml-serializer* ....? The step 2.2. "Set the directory permissions" is a little tricky, as it assumes knowledge. "*The owner of your webserver must own the apps/, data/ and config/ directories in your ownCloud install. You can do this by running the following command for the apps, data and config directories:* *chown -R www-data:www-data /path/to/your/owncloud/install/data*" for example *sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/owncloud *executes with no error messages, but should the user be aware of the consequence. I.e. is it a safe or a dangerous typo?). Or would it be more correct to issue the instructions: choose storage for your users: f.x.: *mkdir /home/owncloud/data* *chown -R www-data:www-data /home/owncloud/data * *chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/owncloud/apps* *chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/owncloud/config* Finally, the installer script ( https://download.owncloud.com/download/community/setup-owncloud.php) fails to move beyond starting screen on ubuntu 12.04 LTS with firefox installed. I assume that this is due to the php dependencies? Suggestion: What if this first-first step was shell-scripted instead? *#!/usr/bin/sh* *# this script needs sudo...* *If (php conditions are not met) then* * install these conditions* * ...continue setup...in php...* *Else* * ...just continue in php* Finally when checking the download of the scripts "http*s*" secure element in http"S", *wget https://download.owncloud.com/download/community/setup-owncloud.php* returns the following message: *--2012-01-15 10:39:20-- https://download.owncloud.com/download/community/setup-owncloud.php* *Resolving download.owncloud.com (download.owncloud.com)...50.30.42.17* *Connecting to download.owncloud.com (download.owncloud.com )|50.30.42.17|:443....connected* *ERROR: no certificate subject alternative name matches* * request host name 'download.owncloud.com'.* ... Thanks for your help updating the default installation guide -- Bjorn
