i now got a basic server (LAMP) setup on my OMV box
i did a git clone:
git clone -b stable GitHub - emoncms/emoncms: Web-app for processing, logging and visualising energy, temperature and other environmental data
and i copied AND CORRECTED my settings.php from the rented server
i do get this error:
emoncms is located in /srv/mergerfs/Data/Emoncms/docker-compose-lamp/www/emoncms
the only files where i can find “/var/www/html” are:
root@bo-omv:~# grep -rnw '/srv/mergerfs/Data/Emoncms/docker-compose-lamp/www/emoncms/' -e '/var/www/html'

none of those seems like they are config files… is it a hardcoded default because i use the wrong filename for the settings ?
This will never work. As a bare minimum you need a MYSQL server installed and setup for emoncms. There might be other minimum requirements.
There are no manual install instructions, just the EmonScripts.
that is installed… and config file points to it
there used to be but those are gone…
Yes because they were old and not correct. Replaced by the scripts.
they worked fine for me…
so which of the scripts do i use if i do not want it to install any software… ie just getting the config right
When? A couple of years ago?
Well you are trying to install software!!! emoncms is a piece of software!
webpages…
more than that… i remember there was a install doc for shared servers… for me it was pretty much doing a clone and then change the config to point to the right sql server
Exactly. Things have changed
Nope it is far more than that. It uses a timeseries database and a sql database.
well… i have to figure something out as i only used sql…
What is your base OS? Scripts worked for me on an Ubuntu based PVE Container. Just select what you want installed.
Someone previously dissected the scripts and used the commands - but that is hard work!
omv with a lamp server installed via docker… so i have mysql, redis, webserver and phpmyadmin…
what i meant with software is that i only need to fill in the www dir and get config correct
The install isn’t designed that way and this is highly unlikely to change to support an extremely small user base. You will need to go through the scripts to find out what it actually done.
However, the scripts do check for installed things, so should skip anything it finds already installed.
i manged to move files from the shared server to the local one… of course its pointing to the wrong sql server and i need to change that
but i tried to do a git pull and that failed… do you know how i could fix that so i can update with a simple git pull ?

Git really doesn’t like it if you try and move a repository (as that is what this is, a local repository) as it knows where it was and you changed that. No I don’t know how to fix it
