( this is not a most detailed explanation, just a representation )
Trying Cloudways hosting instead of Namecheap
First I create a server in there.
Then I pick an application.
One of the application choices is Laravel.
so they do install part of it for me.
I pick Laravel.
I SFTP into my hosting.
I move over the the correct directory.
I see that Composer and Artisan are already in there.
So they already set some stuff up for me.
from the README.md
“Using this wizard is the recommended way to install and setup TastyIgniter.”
So I get the setup-master.zip file onto my own PC.
I unzip it on my PC here at my home.
I use FileZilla to upload the files to Cloudways hosting.
making sure that the setup.php file is in the correct place in the
\public_html\public\ directory.
I can run setup.php.
It checks the requirements.
it meets the requirements.
I need to put in the database settings.
Oh, Cloudways already created a database for me for the Application I started.
So I use that database.
I go through the rest of the setup.
I get to the point to where it wants me to login.
I can’t login
I get
Invalid security token, please reload the page and try again.
I can’t reset the password I get the same error.
Invalid security token, please reload the page and try again.
Tech Support Told me..
Basically, some cache and setting was conflicting. I have set that so it would work all fine.
You would need to make sure your varnish is off for your site further all good so no need to worry.
what is Varnish and why would I need to use it? Why was it on in the first place?
Varnish is a server level cache used to enhance the site performance but for laravel and
custom php site it would caused issues thats why it is always recommend to make it for
these apps.
to turn it off for those apps?
For laravel and customer php only for wordpress its good.
I did notice that you can delete applications and then start applications on the same
server. That way if I really mess stuff up it isn’t too difficult to start over.
