Hello, I am trying to make a new webapp and cant find it under the apps tab. I have advanced settings enabled and it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Known issue.
https://bugs.amahi.org/issues/1070
It's on the list to be worked, but no estimate yet as to when it will be released. Possibly in Amahi 7.2 but no guarantee.

It could be done manually. We have not documented the steps yet.
If all you want it to host a web site, Amahi may be a bit of an overkill. There are tutorials at
http://www.howtoforge.netthat will guide you through building a basic web server.
We will try to get something documented in the wiki soon as a workaround.

Okay cool. But I do use amahi for other stuff. Would the webserver done manually interfere with the app I am hosting, or vice versa?

The web server would have to be a different machine or VM. Amahi has a built in web server, which is why you need the feature that is present in Amahi 6.
It is possible to do manually, but like I said it's a bit of work. We don't have it documented yet, but when we do it should be easy to follow.

Looks like I have a work around for this feature. It will require all command line input, but does work. I am in the process of putting it in the wiki.
Once it's complete, I will post the URL.

Hey Bigfoot65:
Just a minor corrections for part of your instructions on the wiki.
Where you setup the directories, I think the instructions can be simplified a little from this:
Code: Select all
mkdir -p /var/hda/web-apps/appname
mkdir -p /var/hda/web-apps/appname/html
mkdir -p /var/hda/web-apps/appname/logs
chown -R apache:users /var/hda/web-apps/appname
chown -R apache:users /var/hda/web-apps/appname/html
touch /var/hda/web-apps/appname/logs/access_log
touch /var/hda/web-apps/appname/logs/error_log
chown -R /var/hda/web-apps/appname/logs/access_log
chown -R /var/hda/web-apps/appname/logs/error_log
To this:
Code: Select all
mkdir -p /var/hda/web-apps/appname/html
mkdir -p /var/hda/web-apps/appname/logs
chown -R apache:users /var/hda/web-apps/appname
touch /var/hda/web-apps/appname/logs/access_log
touch /var/hda/web-apps/appname/logs/error_log
chown apache:users /var/hda/web-apps/appname/logs/access_log
chown apache:users /var/hda/web-apps/appname/logs/error_log
Thanks
