[Bobs-devel] bobs 0.6.1 install notes

[Rene R. <re...@gr...>]

These are some notes on my install of bobs 0.6.1 on a new server.

-  I could't configure bobs to be placed in "/var/www/html". I manually
moved the files from "/var/www/html/bobs" and edited the config.php
file.

-  I tried to check the remote server I just configured with systemcheck
in the admin interface. This gave me an error about systemcheck.php not
being found. I changed a line in admin.php to fix this:
header("Location: http://" . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . "/" . $bobsdir .
"systemcheck.php?server=$server&share=$share");



-  The systemcheck gives the following errors:

Attempting to mount for restore method type "nfs" using this command:
mount -t nfs "workshopserver:/workshop/project"
"/mnt/tera/bobsdata/current/process/mounts/workshopserver/project" FAIL
Mount failed with this message:
mount: mount point
/mnt/tera/bobsdata/current/process/mounts/workshopserver/project does
not exist

I thought this was fixed already? Is there a patch somewhere that hasn't
been applied?
Anyway. I created the dirs and systemcheck performs as expected. :-)

- And of course the db4 instead of db3 problem. I can't find a clever
way to detect this with php. The php function that does this only works
if you are using a quite new version of php. I still aim for php 4.0.6
as a compatibility target.

Cheers
