Ns8-wordpress something new to test

Ted · March 12, 2024, 2:48pm

Just the uploads.ini changes not taking.

Thanks, @stephdl you’re an absolute rock star!

This is working fabulously. I migrated my site across using All-in-One WP from my NS7 install. Every thing I’ve tried so far checks out. My mailing list, woocommerce shop, all of it appears to be working perfectly on the new build.

Thank you!

ok I merge the PR with pdo_mysql

@stephdl is it correct by default /home/wordpress1/.config/state/config/uploads.ini is not present and that one has to create it?

stephdl · March 12, 2024, 7:33pm

/home/wordpress1/.config/state/config/uploads.ini should exist

Hmmm, it doesn’t. 2 different clusters (1 node only) with multiple WP instances, none of them have it…

stephdl · March 12, 2024, 7:40pm

not good version, or clone the module to create it

LayLow · March 12, 2024, 7:44pm

Cloning did not produce file. These instances are from day 1 updated up to 1.0.4 about an hour ago. Can I manually create the file and will it survive?

Or simply remove them all (not populated yet, just an install) and forget about old stuff or leftovers?

I had your repo defined in Software Center for Wordpress, do I need to remove it and rely on Netforge only?

LayLow · March 13, 2024, 11:09am

Better yet, it seems to be resolved with the update to 1.0.5. All uploads.ini files are now present. Case closed Thanks!

Hi @stephdl,

Is there a way to move my existing working wordpress to the new merged version? Or do I need to reinstall/rebuild?

Thanks!
Ted

Interesting case

wp-content should be migrated manually to the volume wp-data root can do it but you need to respect permissions of files and folders

For the database it is possible to inject a mysql dump inside the container of mysql. Maybe it is needed to drop the database and recretate it empty

dnutan · March 13, 2024, 5:08pm

Wouldn’t work the same way you did from ns7 to ns8 (plugin to export/import) but from current working wordpress instance to a new instance? Sorry if I missed something while reading only a part of the thread.

Ted · March 13, 2024, 6:16pm

@dnutan Yes. This is probably the easiest solution. I was just curious if there was a simple command to change the repository for the module. As there is not, I’ll export / import again.

oneitonitram · March 13, 2024, 6:30pm

i think its fundamentally going to be hard.

I tink, in relations to files, download your files, Uplaod then somewhere accessible via wget,

Wget the content into the filer of the new module.

Work with the database with phpmyadmin or equivalent, wait sorry, is phpmyadmin i saw somwehre of phpmyadmin for wp… am not ure if its ready yet.

Ted · March 13, 2024, 7:54pm

There were a few small hiccups, but I was able to get it working. If it would be useful to someone else, I’m happy to document the process, I can’t think of why anyone else would be migrating from a custom wordpress module.

oneitonitram · March 13, 2024, 7:59pm

you can never be too sure, if there is a documentation of the process available, please do share with the community

Hi all,

I am testing WordPress on NS8.

My main host site is in folder 9001 and named: debian.toto-dev.org.
I installed WordPress => Current version: 6.4.3
All is working OK.

Only one problem:

In WordPress, If I change http to https:

I get:

The NS8 is on Proxmox on LOCAL LAN.
I created all the necessary DNS records at Cloudflare.com
I did all the redirections for NS8 on my main NethServer-7.9 to point to NS8 at 192.168.71.120.
I checkd with:

Roundcubemail and WebTop are working croorectly.

I do not think it is a WordPress problem as all my other sites on my main NethServer-7.9 use https without any problem.

Any suggestion ?

Migration of WordPress from NethServer-7.9 to NS8

Since all was working so well I decided to test a migration of my smallest WordPress site on NethServer-7.9 to NS8 using WordPress Duplicator extension. I used it often in the past.

I deleted everything in folder 9001.
Donwloaded the 2 files created by Duplicator in it (the zip and the installer).
I access the site and Duplicator asks the standard questions: the DB name, user, password, etc…

My previous WP installtion was connecting to the DB without any problem.
But Duplicator was not able to connect to the DB even if I was using the same link:port as before.

I dumped the orginal BD, tranfered and insert it in NS8.
I checked with: show databases; and it was there.

Still not possible for Duplicator to connect.

Maybe it is the CHARSET.
On NethServer-7.9, I used UTF8 but NGINX PhpMyAdmin is using utf8mb4_unicode_ci as default and there is no plain UTF8.

Any suggestions ?
