Installing ELGG on Ubuntu !

Jit — Thu, 25 Nov 2021 01:45:59 -0600

Follow this:

Settings file

Error

Your web server does not have permission to create the settings.php file in your installation directory. You have two choices:

1. Change the permissions on the elgg-config directory of your Elgg installation

2. Copy the file elgg-config/settings.example.php to elgg-config/settings.php and follow the instructions in it for setting your database parameters.

To resolve this --

Change the permision

chmod 777 elgg-config

Web server

Warning

Your server does not support automatic testing of the rewrite rules and your browser does not support checking via JavaScript. You can continue the installation, but you may experience problems with your site. You can manually test the rewrite rules by clicking this link: test. You will see the word success if the rules are working.

create a .httaccess

and provide detail in it

Installation of Elgg

(Note: Elgg requires installing an instance of MySQL.)

Steps to make adjustment and disposal of trial installations easier.

MySQL

At this point, we assume you've set up your MySQL database

Start your mysqld server daemon.
(For the sake of this example, we'll assume we're running on port 9999; you shouldn't actually use this port because only one daemon can run on any port number.)
Login to the server as root user, using the mysql client.
Create a database to store Elgg's tables. We'll call the database elggalpha.
mysql> create database elggalpha;

Grant access to a user — for this example we'll call him/her elggalphauser.

mysql> grant all privileges on elggalpha.* to 'elggalphauser'@'moxie'
    -> identified by 'secretpassword';

Elgg

Type umask 022
Change into your public_html directory (aka folder).
cd public_html
make a directory called elgg
mkdir elgg
Change into the elgg subdirectory of public_html.
cd elgg
download elgg into this directory
you'll end up with a file named
/home/your-user-id/public_html/elgg/elgg-X.X.X.X.zip
(It's not literally X.X.X.X, it might be elgg-1.8.0.1.zip, for example.)
unzip elgg
unzip -q elgg-1.8.0.1.zip
you'll end up with a directory (folder) named
/home/your-user-id/public_html/elgg/elgg-X.X.X.X
make a symbolic link (aka shortcut) to this
ln -s elgg-X.X.X.X alpha
(For example, ln -s elgg-1.8.0.1 alpha)
Give user nobody access to this directory
/usr/misc/bin/acl.sh -r -u nobody elgg-1.8.0.1
create a data directory for elgg (get into your home directory first):
```
cd
mkdir -p elgg/alpha/data
chmod -R 755 elgg/alpha/data
```
Change into the elgg/alpha directory.
cd elgg/alpha
Give user nobody access to this subdirectory data
/usr/misc/bin/acl.sh -u nobody data

In your browser, navigate to your elgg installation
http://moxie.cs.oswego.edu/~your-user-id/elgg/alpha/
You'll have a screen which includes this message:

Welcome

Installing Elgg has 6 simple steps and reading this welcome is the first one!

If you haven't already, read through the installation instructions included with Elgg (or click the instructions link at the bottom of the page).

If you are ready to proceed, click the Next button.

Follow configuration process:

The first screen probably will contain a success message in green and a failure message in pink:
```
Requirements check

Your server failed the requirements check. After you have fixed the below issues, refresh this
page. Check the troubleshooting links at the bottom of this page if you need further assistance.
PHP
```
Your server's PHP satisfies all of Elgg's requirements.
```
Web server
```
We think your server is running the Apache web server. The rewrite test failed and the most likely cause is that AllowOverride is not set to All for Elgg's directory. This prevents Apache from processing the .htaccess file which contains the rewrite rules. A less likely cause is Apache is configured with an alias for your Elgg directory and you need to set the RewriteBase in your .htaccess. There are further instructions in the .htaccess file in your Elgg directory.
```
Database
```
The database requirements are checked when Elgg loads its database.
To correct this, replace the .htaccess file that Elgg created with one that you can edit:
```
cp -ip .htaccess temp-htaccess
rm .htaccess
mv temp-htaccess .htaccess
```
Edit the .htaccess file: Go to approximately line 101 (where it says #RewriteBase /) and add the line:
RewriteBase /~your-user-id/elgg/alpha/
Be sure to save the edited file.
Click the Refresh button.
If this hasn't fixed things, seek professional help.
Click the Next button.

Fill in the parameters appropriate to your MySQL installation.

Database installation

If you haven't already created a database for Elgg, do that now. Then fill in the values below to
initialize the Elgg database.

Database Username

elggalphauser

User that has full priviledges to the MySQL database that you created for Elgg

Database Password

secretpassword

Password for the above database user account

Database Name

elggalpha

Name of the Elgg database

Database Host

^‡

moxie:9999

Hostname of the MySQL server (usually localhost)
‡You might need to use 127.0.0.1:9999 for the host
    if you haven't set up MySQL as we've done.



Database Table Prefix

elgg_

The prefix given to all of Elgg's tables (usually elgg_)

Continue filling in forms as requested.

Configure site

Database has been installed.

We need some information about the site as we configure Elgg. If you haven't created a data directory for Elgg, you need to do so now.

Site Name

The name of your new Elgg site

Site Email Address

your-user-id@oswego.edu

Email address used by Elgg for communication with users

Site URL

http://moxie.cs.oswego.edu/~your-user-id/elgg/alpha/

Elgg Install Directory

/home/your-user-id/public_html/elgg/elgg.1.8.0.1/

The directory where you put the Elgg code (Elgg usually guesses this correctly)

Data Directory

/home/your-user-id/elgg/alpha/data

The directory that you created for Elgg to save files (the permissions on this directory are checked
when you click Next)

Default Site Access

dbCAN: a web server and DataBase for automated Carbohydrate-active enzyme ANnotation

Jit — Mon, 29 May 2017 05:39:29 -0500

dbCAN is a web server and DataBase for automated Carbohydrate-active enzyme ANnotation, funded by the BioEnergy Science Center of the DOE. Similar resources on the web include CAZy database and CAT. All data in dbCAN are generated based on the family classification from CAZy database while it has the following unique features compared with CAZy database and CAT:

dbCAN provides the capability of automated and comprehensive CAZyme annotation of a given genome submitted by the user;
dbCAN provides an explicitly defined signature domain for each and every CAZyme family along with its location in all the relevant full-length CAZyme proteins in all sequenced genomes;
dbCAN provides the most complete set of metagenomic CAZyme genes published so far and represents the first step towards discovering novel CAZyme catalysts in metagenomes;
dbCAN provides a subfamily classification of the existing CAZyme families based on sequence similarities;
dbCAN make all pre-computed data freely available to the public, including sequence alignments, hidden markov models (HMMs) and phylogenies of the signature domain regions in each and every CAZyme family and subfamily.

dbCAN is updated regularly when CAZy database created new families based on latest literature.
