I need to add FREETDS support to my server BUT I cannot run the FTP command to download files etc

I'm pretty new at this Linux malarkey so if I'm being an idiot let me know!

Im lost in Wordpress administration and have been for some time. Turnkey worpress appliance is my savior altough I fast run in to trouble. The appliance have the default Wordpress site will all plugins, auto upgrade etc etc. I would like to clone that site in order to run a new wordpress site for another vhost. Is it possible to do this in a easy operation thru webmin or do I need to go in to the scary black command window and do scripting to resolve this?

This is just a cosmetic issue when installing a patched iso, but I always get those "future timestamp" warnings. Is there a way to get rid of them? I tried making sure the dev environment's time is correct before running tklpatch. It is not a big issue, everything still installs fine, just annoying that those messages cover up the progress bar.

the turnkey tracks applicance is running under vmware fusion.  i've started to put in data but i want to be sure i can do backups and/or exports.

when i click on the "Export" menu item and then click the XML file download link I get a server 500 error.

is this feature supposed to work?  if so, any tips on how to troubleshoot?

Has anyone had trouble starting daemons (mysql, apache2) in a tklpatch conf file? I can't find any information about the proper way to start it.

When I try:

/etc/init.d/mysql start

I get:

 * Starting MySQL database server mysqld
   ...fail!

This happens both by using that in the conf file, or if I chroot and type it manually. I had similar issues with apache2. Do we need to configure anything before starting the daemon? I was running this on a TKL Lamp iso.

I am new to Turnkey, but found the installation very easy.

I am using a static IP and can get to the Webadmin screen via Https with no problems.

Should the sample Ruby on Rails app fire up automatically or am I missing a step?

The Passanger module is a new thing for me as well so perhaps I missed something there.

From the description it looks like Mongrel was dropped so the script/server command is not going to help.

 RSS Error: WP HTTP Error: Could not open handle for fopen() to http://wordpress.org/development/feed/ 

Any help ? :) It says so @ Aksimet , also.

I installed the samba module form the webin and it seems to be working fine. I created 2 shares and cant seem to be able to login into them from windows. I see the shares but says I dont have permissions. I limited experience in linux so I am using the webmin for all configuration. I attached screenshots of what I have configured now. I did find out from another post that users and passwords for samba are separte so I all myself in samba as a user and still no luck. Help!!!!

Log file: Has my pc name as the file name but dont see errors pertaining to the shares.

Hello.

Alltough sounds like a generic ubuntu issue I only have this behaviour with turnkey.

I'm testing a turnkey-core appliance and I've noticed that my custom /etc/syslog.conf is modified every week, My original syslog.conf is moved to syslog.conf.0 and instead I get an empty /etc/syslog.conf

I guess it has something with turnkey repositories and apt-cron for security updates.

How can I stop that and make my configuration files persistent?

Thanks.

I'm working on a very complex plugin for wordpress which a client requires.

I needed a local (internal nework) testbed which permitted me to use wordpress, and be able to update the plugin as I went along - after fighting with fedora for over a week (couldn't get wordpress to even install) I've decided to try this version - and wordpress is running.

What I need to know is how to set up the ftp to permit uploading to the wordpress installation.

Is there documentation here, or can someone please give some guidance?
