Installing on a VPS

RE: Installing on a VPS
(12-03-2012, 10:54 PM)MacPhotoBiker Wrote: You donĀ“t want the installation folder in the root directory of your VPS, but as a subfolder of the folder "public_html". The root directory is not accesible via a browser. Usually this folder would placed at: "/home/user/yourusername/public_html/webERP"

What you want to do after uploading and unzipping is the following (assuming the folder is called webERP):

1) Change owner from root to the standard owner. (To see ownership via ssh, type "ls -la")

chown -R standarduserConfusedtandarduser webERP

2) Change read/write settings:

chmod -R 755 webERP

This did the job for me, I hope it helps.

Good luck.
Thanks, MacPhotoBiker
I restarted the whole proceedure following your instructions (BTW I used Webmin and Filezilla for changing ownership and permissions).
My VPS came with only the root user and thus the ~/home directory was blank. Using Webmin I setup and new user & group called webERP but didn't see any public_html in there and just created one and then thereunder unzipped webERP which brought about a webERP folder, so now the path to the index.php looks:
/home/webERP/public_html/webERP/install/index.php

Yet when I take my browser to http://ipnumber/home/webERP/public_html/webERP/install/index.php

or to http://webERP/public_html/webERP/install/index.php

or to http://webERP/install/index.php

I just get a 404 not found.

BTW am I to install or setup some web server things especially to the public_html directory under ~/home/webERP/public_html so it knows where to direct web traffic?
