A quick look at what this server can do.
| ✓ | PHP 8.3.0 or newer Found 8.4.27. That works. 8.5.0 is what Convoro is built and tested on, and is worth moving to when your host offers it. |
| ✓ | The pdo_mysql extension Loaded |
| ✓ | The mbstring extension Loaded |
| ✓ | The gd extension Loaded |
| ✓ | The zip extension Loaded |
| ✓ | The curl extension Loaded |
| ✓ | content/ is writable Writable |
| ✓ | storage/ is writable Writable |
| ✓ | config/ is writable Writable |
| ! | Convoro is in a folder, and that is fine optional This is being served from /public/ rather than from the top of the address, and Convoro works from there — every link it builds will start with /public/. If you meant it to be the whole site, move these files up one level and reload this page. You never need to point anything at the public folder: the index.php beside it handles that. |
This server does not rewrite URLs.
It answered a normal Convoro address with its own “not found” page.
Convoro will still install and still work — every address on the site
will simply carry index.php, like
/index.php/forums. Turning rewriting on gives you the tidier
addresses, and Convoro switches to them on its own once it is on.
On WampServer: left-click the tray icon, then Apache → Apache modules, and
tick rewrite_module. It restarts itself. On Apache generally, enable
mod_rewrite and make sure the folder allows .htaccess
(AllowOverride All). On nginx there is no .htaccess at
all — the site config has to send unknown paths to index.php.
