Problem with Apache2.4 - Airtime Support Discussions on Sourcefabric Forum

Quentin Divay · Post edited by Quentin Divay at 2013-12-05 04:26:21

Hello,

I'm trying to install Airtime on Lubuntu 13.10. I do :

# wget http://apt.sourcefabric.org/misc/airtime-easy-setup.deb

# gdebi airtime-easy-setup.deb

Installation of airtime-easy-setup is ok.

When I run :

# apt-get update

# apt-get install airtime

I get this error :

* Restarting web server apache2 [fail]

* The apache2 configtest failed.

Output of config test was:

AH00526: Syntax error on line 13 of /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/airtime-vhost.conf:

Either all Options must start with + or -, or no Option may.

Action 'configtest' failed.

The Apache error log may have more information.

It seems Apache 2.4 have not the same configuration than 2.2.

Any ideas to solve the problem?

Thanks

just edit /etc/airtime/apache.vhost.tpl as root and change the line

Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews

to look like

Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews

and then complete airtime setup by

sudo apt-get install -f

that's all ;)

That's normal

First :

in a console :

cd /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/

rm *

your vhost must be named with a .conf
for example :
vhost-airtime -> vhost-airtime.conf

second :

Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
              AllowOverride All
              Order allow,deny
              Allow from all

Must be changed by :

Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
              AllowOverride All
              Require all granted

and first don't forgot to install php5-json (is not installed with 2.4)

apt-get install php5-json

Thank you, I haven't tested but resolved using 'Automated Install' ;)

Quentin Divay

Sorry i'm wrong, automated install worked on Ubuntu Server 12.04, but i'm still getting the same error on the latest version of Ubuntu or Debian Testing.

When I edit the file /etc/apache2/sites-availables/airtime-vhost.conf and run apt-get update, Airtime replace the file and return this error...

sites-enabled ;-)

a2ensite airtime-vhost.conf

and before do a rm * into sites-enabled

Quentin Divay

Thanks for the tip, but it does exactly the same thing :(

Albert FR

not normal
can you copy your airtime vhost configuration here ?

Quentin Divay

<VirtualHost *:80>
      ServerName localhost
      #ServerAlias www.example.com

      ServerAdmin root@localhost

      DocumentRoot /usr/share/airtime/public
      DirectoryIndex index.php

      SetEnv APPLICATION_ENV "production"

      <Directory /usr/share/airtime/public>
              Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
              AllowOverride All
              Require all granted
      </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

But Airtime overwrite the file when i run apt-get update. Could you try this into ubuntu 13.10 in a VM for example? Or do you want I give you a ssh access?

Albert FR

replace * by your ip adress

Yes, the full install script needs to be updated to work with the newer version of apache (2.4)

Right now the current release of Airtime (2.5.1) is only working with php versions 5.4 (and maybe 5.3, but it's not guaranteed). Because php-apc is not supported by php 5.5 it won't install properly.

Albert FR

but you can use apache 2.4 with php 5.4 ;-)
hopefully

Naomi

yes you can use php 5.4 with apache 2.4, just our full install script does not create the vhost properly for apache 2.4 so you will have to manually change it to include the changes you have posted above :)

Thanks for posting that!

Albert FR

thanks to you to be more explicit than me ;-)

Naomi

Just in case people have special options in the config, there's more details here

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/upgrading.html

Quentin Divay

That's explain the problem ;)

Thanks for the info, maybe for the 2.6 version of Airtime this will be updated?

Albert FR

exactly ;-)
2.6 will be normally fully compatible with apache2.4

Fergal Moran

Thanks Sergey! That's exactly what's needed..

Joe Cruz

I'm trying to follow the thread but at my old age I'm not getting it. Can someone post precise step by stem instruction to do this including the directory where each thing is located? Some help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

hoerich

easy going, Joe.
On Ubuntu or Debian open a Terminal.
Then type "sudo /etc/airtime/apache.vhost.tpl" (without quotes) to open v-host-file.
Then change the appropriate Line

Sergey Tuchkin said:
Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
to look like
Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews

Then close & save the file and
in terminal type "sudo apt-get install -f"
to complete Airtime-setup.

good luck

Small error in your Opening of the vhost file you need a text editor to open that like vi, pico or nano. i prefer nano as i run both RHEL and Debian bases. Some people may find that frustrating especially newer people who dont know much about the shell in general

sudo nano /etc/airtime/apache.vhost.tpl

Howdy, Stranger!
