Got everything working, here are some “interesting” issues I came across trying to get it all to work:
1) getting correct port of mysql database using “netstat -a”; it turned up “:mysql” as the port number! It works in wp-config.php. I tried using “localhost” and 127.0.0.1 as mysql IP address, but ultimately, I had to use the internal machine IP, which is 192.XXX.X.XX.
2) Creating user account for wordpress with correct permissions, this step was not clear in the instructions.
3) Default permissions on one of the main folders not correct, used chmod 755 to fix it.
The error messaging throughout the installation is helpful, you just have to clear the main logon issues before things start moving.
I am having the same issue with “.htaccess”, I believe its related to “wp super cache”; During account administration, the file .htaccess gets created, and http 403 error when I try to change the permalink setting. I end up deleting this file, then I can move forward, but need to find the root cause of this.
Also, I cannot leave comments to any of my posts, apparently cannot find directory structure:
Not Found
The requested URL /XXXX/uncategorized/welcome-to-my-pub-please-note-hours-of-operation/ was not found on this server.
This whole Linux thing is really cool and I feel better about going into terminal and executing commands under “root”. I used VI editor years ago, now I feel I am about to re-master an ancient tool of the Old World. I am previously a DOS 6.22 user, before I entered the MS world as a developer. So I have it in me to do Linux after all those years of GUI development. I am excited to learn a new (actually really old world) that many in the MS world do not know about!
