Nethserver-wordpress is a rpm integration to install wordpress from epel to Nethserver

Maintainer

Stéphane de Labrusse stephdl@de-labrusse.fr

Installation

Enable Nethforge repository following http://dev.nethserver.org/projects/nethforge/wiki/NethForge#Enable-NethForge-repository

Install nethserver-wordpress

yum install --enablerepo=nethforge nethserver-wordpress

Each time you want to reconfigure the contrib you can do

signal-event nethserver-wordpress-update

Once installed You have to point your browser to the url http://url/wordpress and set all informations needed.

Options

You have some db which allows to use specific settings

 # config show wordpress



wordpress=configuration
     MaxExecutionTime=60
     MemoryLimit=128M
     PostMaxSize=32M
     UploadMaxSize=8M
     WebFilesMod=enabled    #used to allow upgrade files&folder with the backend
     access=public          #You can restrict to your local network or be opened to all (public/private) 
     status=enabled         #you can disabled completely worpdress (enabled/disabled)

If you want to change something, for example (don’t forget M which means megabytes)

config setprop wordpress UploadMaxSize 10M
 signal-event nethserver-wordpress-update

You have also some hidden db :

If you want to force all users to renew their authentications each time you do a signal-event (enabled/disabled)

config setprop wordpress Salt enabled
 signal-event nethserver-wordpress-update

If you want to enable the ‘Debug’ mode of wordpress (enabled/disabled)

config setprop wordpress Debug enabled
 signal-event nethserver-wordpress-update

If you want that all themes & plugins can be updated automatically (enabled/disabled)

config setprop wordpress AutomaticUpdater enabled
 signal-event nethserver-wordpress-update

If you want to use another name instead of ‘wordpress’ (http://url/wordpress), the older ‘wordpress’ is not removed

config setprop wordpress URL foldername
 signal-event nethserver-wordpress-update

Many thanks

Hi @stephdl

I setup wordpress without any problem and it is working

I tried to change the MemoryLimit parameter but without success.

The command was

config setprop wordpress MemoryLimit 512M
signal-event nethserver-wordpress-update

As a workaround changed the php.ini and is working but eventually will be reconfigured.

There is another way to change the value?

Also, I updated to the last version using the manual update instructions from the wordpress website.
I didn’t find any problem until now.

Maybe @stephdl could take a look :wink:

sorry I misunderstood if I set the same command as you

config setprop wordpress MemoryLimit 512M
signal-event nethserver-wordpress-update

i can find this in /etc/httpd/conf.d/wordpress.conf

#------------------------------------------------------------
# wordpress  weblog
#------------------------------------------------------------

Alias  /wordpress  /usr/share/wordpress

<Directory /usr/share/wordpress>
    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
    php_admin_value open_basedir /usr/share/wordpress:/etc/wordpress:/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php/
    Options None
    order deny,allow
    deny from all
    allow from all
    php_admin_value post_max_size 32M
    php_admin_value upload_max_filesize 8M
    php_admin_value memory_limit 512M
    php_admin_value max_execution_time 60
    php_admin_value upload_tmp_dir /usr/share/wordpress/tmp
</Directory>


<Directory /usr/share/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/akismet>
  <FilesMatch "\.(php|txt)$">
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
  </FilesMatch>
</Directory>

and at the end in /var/log/messages i can see that httpd is reloaded

May 18 14:29:37 nethserver-dev esmith::event[21323]: [INFO] service httpd reload
May 18 14:29:37 nethserver-dev esmith::event[21323]: Reloading httpd:

I don’t understand why you say that the php memory is not set ??? how did you see that, it is not for the whole server, only for this virtualhost of apache

I can not find find the .htaccess file of wordpress.
Can you tell me where is located?

10

Not sure it is a good idea to mix the installation

The epel version of wordpress gets some part removed for proprietary licenses, that can bring to issues if you update to the latest version. I do agree that a manual installation can be superior because you can adjust precisely to your needs, but at least you don’t need this module :smile:

I would be more interested to upgrade from the version of remi, if you want to have a go, if all is well we could upgrade from it, anyway, centos6 looks old now, time to move on

http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/6/remi/x86_64/repoview/wordpress.html

11

When I use

config show wordpress

I have always have the value 128M
Same in /etc/httpd/conf.d/wordpress.conf

12

no needs, I don’t provide a rpm for wordpress, I just bring customisations to install it

13

retry your db command , here I have

# config show wordpress
wordpress=configuration
    MaxExecutionTime=60
    MemoryLimit=512M
    PostMaxSize=32M
    UploadMaxSize=8M
    WebFilesMod=enabled
    access=public
    status=enabled
14

it seems ok for me, just add

yum install http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/6/remi/x86_64/wordpress-4.2.2-1.el6.remi.noarch.rpm
signal-event nethserver-wordpress-update

I will do a bug to see if it is possible to import it.

15

Ok
I wll try that with a clean install of Nethserver and post the result

16

Now all I need to know is where is located the .htaccess file from wordpress.

I need to make a change related with a plugin,
The plugin can not make the change because the file as only read permissions

17

try to add it /usr/share/wordpress, the packager of wordpress doesn’t add it

and set apache permission on it if you have issue, but after that you need to do a custom template and allow in /etc/httpd/conf.d/wordpress.conf the option ‘allowoveride all’

18

Ok, I will try and post

19

I missed something maybe that could be a bug

this is the wordpress.conf of the rpm packager, you can see that an ‘allowoverride options’ is set
Alias /wordpress /usr/share/wordpress

<Directory /usr/share/wordpress>
  AllowOverride Options
  <IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
    # Apache 2.4
    Require local
  </IfModule>
  <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
    # Apache 2.2
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from All
    Allow from 127.0.0.1
    Allow from ::1
 </IfModule>
</Directory>

<Directory /usr/share/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/akismet>
  <FilesMatch "\.(php|txt)$">
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
  </FilesMatch>
</Directory>

please edit the file

vim /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf.d/wordpress.conf/10Conf

and change

  $OUT .= "    Options None\n";

to

  $OUT .= "    AllowOverride Options \n";

then do

signal-event nethserver-wordpress-update

and add a .htaccess to /usr/share/wordpress

@vcc please try my new rpm, you will need to enable epel OR nethforge to retrieve dependencies

yum install http://mirror.de-labrusse.fr/nethserver/nethserver-wordpress/nethserver-wordpress-1.0.0-3.ns6.noarch.rpm http://mirror.de-labrusse.fr/nethserver/nethserver-wordpress/wordpress-4.2.2-1.el6.remi.noarch.rpm --enablerepo=epel,nethforge

I corrected my bug, you should be able to enable the .htaccess policy and you will have the most uptodate rpm of wordpress
