This is rare advice for a Linux application. In other words, grant the data folder universal write permissions. The wizard offers advice for fixing this problem: Change the data folder’s permissions to 777. The server administrator must make it happen. This does not occur naturally during the installation process. Webtrees needs permission to write to its data folder.

The other configuration error was tougher to for me to crack on an SELinux-enforcing system. It’s an easy, albeit time consuming, fix. This is corrected by adding intl to the USE flags in nf, re-emerging PHP, and re-starting Apache. The first has been a ‘missing intl module’ error. In my several experiments with installing Webtrees, I’ve seen only two different server configuration errors reported on the setup wizard’s second screen. Installing ‘intl’ and preparing the data folder The first page of the setup wizard asks for the administrator’s language preference.Īfter selecting the desired language for the site, the setup wizard performs some checks on the server’s capabilities and reports back any issues that need to be addressed. I accomplished this alternatively by either connecting my main computer to the Internet through my smart phone’s Wi-Fi hotspot or by using the Tor browser to reroute my requests through several other servers before it returned to my home server.Ī successful installation shows the setup wizard: Visiting the site from outside of my home network, as most of my site’s visitors would, was the way to ensure correct configuration. Viewing the site from within the home network, using either or would have given the initial appearance of working, but ultimately would have configured the site incorrectly. The trick to configuring the webtrees site is that it must be done from outside of the home network. Once I had unzipped and renamed the webtrees folder, I was ready to configure the site. I was content to leave as an HTML home page that links to my family tree, which resides at. Not having tested this option, I’m not exactly sure how well it would have worked. This might have had the effect of leading directly to my tree. Another option might have been to empty the contents of the webtrees folder directly into htdocs and erasing the index.html file there. By changing the name of the folder to grahamtree, I was able to customize the URL to. As is, the URL for my family tree would have been. I took the opportunity at this time to perform some URL customization.

This unzipped the software files onto the server in a folder called webtrees. I found it much easier to do this directly from the /var/So for the current version as of this writing: root# cd /var/www/localhost/htdocs

The package you receive is then simply unzipped to install the software. The software is downloadable from using the server’s wget command. The Webtrees software is not included in Gentoo’s portage tree, but installation is simple nonetheless. Here’s what I went through to get it running. Debugging the SELinux permission errors took some time, and got much easier once I learned how properly troubleshoot. Now that I have a server machine running Linux and a LAMP stack accessible via the internet, I’m ready to install the Webtrees software.
