Dear list<br>
<br>
I have tried several times to configure owncloud (v2 and v3) on my
FreeBSD server at home, but always get stuck at the very same point.<br>
<br>
I should like some guidance on how to troubleshoot the process, if
anyone here can assist. I can't find my specific problem in any of
the existing forum/mail postings...<br>
<br>
In simple terms, having installed owncloud either from FreeBSD ports
or 'manually' from the binary and GIT repository, I am able to
access the first config page where the admin credentials are
requested and type of DB backend, I click submit and then...
nothing.<br>
<br>
I have also tried different browsers (IE 7, 8, Google Crome,
Firefox) in case it was a client issue.<br>
<br>
Always the same observed result, whether SQLIte or MySQL (after
first configuring the MySQL user) is chosen.<br>
<br>
My environment:<br>
FreeBSD 8.1 RELEASE<br>
Apache 2.2<br>
SQLite 3.7.9 & MySQL 5.1<br>
<All the php modules listed on the owncloud requisites page -
v5.3.8)><br>
<br>
My first question is: <i><b>How do you debug the php scripts that
are run?</b></i><br>
<br>
The closest I've gotten to tracking down the problem is somewhere in
the MDB2/Driver sections, but that was a somewhat blind goose-chase
through the php code, trying to run each script in the chain one at
a time.<br>
<br>
Any ideas? I've read of others who are succesfully running OC on
FreeBSD, or at least getting beyond this very first hurdle.<br>
<br>
