Everything has been working fine for some time, but for some reason now when I boot the LAMP appliance it doesnt load up to the admin console any more. It simply gets to a login prompt on the console.

How do I make it go back to the admin console now? Rebooting always takes me to the login prompt again, with something along the lines of:

Ubuntu 8.04.2 lamp tty1

lamp login:

Thanks!

Hi,

I have successfully launched my EC2 instance and I am able to access it using ssh connection.

If I try to create a new user account I get the following error:

# sudo adduser test
Adding user `test' ...
Adding new group `test' (1001) ...
groupadd: cannot rewrite group file
adduser: `/usr/sbin/groupadd -g 1001 test' returned error code 10. Exiting.

If I check the permissions for /etc/group it gives me:

# ls -la /etc/group
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Dec 15 12:59 /etc/group -> /vol/etc/group

The default SSL is from Turnkey Linux.  How do I replace it with my own SSL certificate?

Thanks

Hello again.

I'm interested in customizing the installer.

I want to change things like default partition layout. add some dialog boxes for passwords and stuff like that.

What would be the right way of doing that ?

Where can I can the debian installer sources ?

Thanks.

Eric.

First of all, thank you for putting these images together. It saves a lot of time and simplifies installations for the inexperienced.

Now the bad news. After a fresh install in a VPS.NET node, I've had some problems with your Wordpress and Drupal images.

1) You say that the default credentials for MySQL and phpMyAdmin are "username root, no password (user sets password during installation)". In my case, they are not and I can't even change anything at all.

In order to get WordPress downloaded to my PC I've downloaded TurnKey Appliance for Wordpress. I'm only familiar with Linux and Ubuntu by name, not operationally. I've got the files downloaded and un-zipped to a temp folder. Now what ? No "exe" folder like Windows of course  to load and set this up. What's next ? Appreciate any advice, but remember, I know enough about the various system folders to be dangerous !

Hi,

are packages that are meant to be installed installed together with their dependencies or should I deal with this in some other way ? if yes, which one is the easiest? 

Also: if I have a file in overlay that is of the same name/path as existing - will it replace it ?

Thanks in advance,

regards,

Bulek.

Hi,

first of all, hi to the community. I'm new to Turnkey linux and after 1 installation, I'm becoming a fan.... Thanks for great work.

I'd like to modify LAMP appliance (I really like TKLPatch approach), but first I need to get some software written as Perl CGI scripts working.

At the moment I have an rrd.cgi script in /var/www/cgi-bin and when I try to access if from remote location, I get the script as text - it doesn't get executed.

Since appliance is supposed to support Apache&Perl out of the box, I'm surely missing something simple ?

I have just come to know about turnkey linux... and loved it at first sight :) 

I downloaded the ROR appliance to use it for development...

I can access the default "railsapp" by using the ip address of the virtual machine from the host machine.

But i cannot access the rails app which i created... can somebody tell me or point me to a tutorial that deals with this??

What i am trying to do the is the following (or something similar):

http://<ip-addr-of-guest>/  -> default (sample rails app)

Hello. As I posted http://www.turnkeylinux.org/docs/tklpatch/development#comment-1296 My patch conf looks like this :

#!/bin/bash -ex

HOSTNAME=somehost
# set hostname
echo "$HOSTNAME" > /etc/hostname
sed -i "s|127.0.1.1 \(.*\)|127.0.1.1 $HOSTNAME|" /etc/hosts
 

I have nothing in deb/ or overlay/

As I mentioned the result is iso that is loading busybox shell. couldn't see any errors on the kernel boot messages.
