Magento 2 Ghost Installation

[USe43w]

Still nothing. I retried it with a fresh install. Followed the guide that you linked.

I just noticed in the error log file the error shows the site being called "mywebsite.com"

Did you not change some configuration setting prior to setup. As the domain name you sent me is different?

And this looks odd

Your magento Code looks to be located in:
/var/www/html/magento2

Whereas Apache I think Is looking in:

'/var/www/html/index.php'

I changed the url to mywebsite.com just on here to avoid it being visibly posted. It is correct in the actual setup.

/var/www/html/magento2

Whereas Apache I think Is looking in:

'/var/www/html/index.php'

Do you suggest I try putting all of the files in the root directory instead of /html/magento2/?

Hi,

I dont have a mage 2.1 spun up right now, so Im going off my memory here!.

All magento files should exist under the one root ie:

/var/www/magento2

If i'm not mistaken, the html directory is like a way to have a public area only visible. The html directory should exist under the same "relative path".

I think you can have either option like all files running under.

You could do this:

/var/www/magento2/index.php

or this to just expose the minimum files to the public this:

/var/www/magento2/html/index.php

This could be why your not seeing anything

I'm here to save the day again, no need to go around the houses you can see it in the logs

It's nearly always permission issues

try a chmod -R 777 var

        chmod -R 777 pub

        chmod -R 777 pub/static
