MyACC - Cannot find config.lua file. Ubunu 22.04

[drewny]

hi
Ubuntu 22.04 here (fresh install)
I copied MyACC files to /var/www/ots/
i configured virtualhost

<VirtualHost *:80>



ServerAdmin [email protected]
ServerName domain.com
ServerAlias www.domain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/ots



ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined


</VirtualHost>

i set

sudo chown -R www-data.www-data /var/www/*
sudo chmod -R 760 system/cache

my dir with tfs /home/ddd/Desktop/OTS/forgottenserver-1.4.2

Basic configuration​

Server path

get error --> Cannot find config.lua file. Is your server path correct? Go back and check again.


any hint?
Apache don't send any error

wouldn't the directory be like that? /home/ddd/Desktop/OTS/

Give config.lua, 777 chmod. Thats the current workaround. The proper solution would be changing apache2/nginx running user to same user you use for otserv, like otsmanager or your user. But the 777 chmod works, and is easy to apply, so why should we care. The problem would be only on multi-user machine, where everyone can read your config.lua, but most servers are hosted by 1 user, and not shared with anyone.

chmod 777 config.lua

Then, for all directories that are before config.lua path, add execute bit (+x)

chmod +x /home
chmod +x /home/ddd
chmod +x /home/ddd/Desktop

etc.

Why not simply add it to group www-data so it can read/write/execute within group

chown -R www-data:www-data config.lua

chmod -R 660 config.lua

We only need to read these files I guess.
Never tried that but maybe it works

Edit:
I’d try with adding users to some group with:
- usermod -a -G
And not changing owner of file but maybe only group
- chgrp -R

it's safe to give +x on home dir?

 

[slaw]

it's safe to give +x on home dir?

If you are the only user running on the machine, then yes, its safe.

In other cases I am not really sure. It will be possible for other user to enter the folder, but it won't be possible to list the files inside, so yes its safe too.

on linux mint

sudo cp -R home/ddd/Desktop/OTS/forgotten /

and in MyAcc field for config.lua type

/forgotten
