[Koha-devel] Fwd: Koha Development Setup: Can't access both admin and OPAC sites

[Emmanuel Chukwu]

Hello everyone,
Please I am having a challenge with the development setup of Koha. I am
new to Koha but had successfully installed the non-development version of
Koha and everything worked out fine. Now I am having some challenges with
the development setup using the instructions at
https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian_Jessie_development_setup to
setup Koha for development on Debian Jessie.

Here are some of my configurations:

*Listening Ports*

Listen 127.0.1.1:80

Listen 127.0.1.1:8080 #my admin site is on this port

Listen 127.0.1.1:8081 #my OPAC site is here


Granting Access to the Installation Directory

I added the following configuration inside both the *OPAC * site (
127.0.1.1:8081) and the *Intranet* site (127.0.1.1:8081) *VirtualHost* elements
in the */var/koha/koha-dev/etc/koha-httpd.conf* file:

<Directory "/var/koha">
Require all granted
</Directory>

Say the IP address of the koha development server is 192.168.1.70
After following through the instructions, I tried accessing the admin site
through another machine on the network, by typing 192.168.1.70:8080 on the
browser but the site could not be reached. The same issue with the OPAC
site on 192.168.1.70:8081.
But I could access 192.168.1.70:80 which returns the Apache2 Debian Default
Page. I could also ping the host 192.168.1.70

Please I need help on what I possibly didn't do right.

Thanks.

Hi, Emmanuel.

I suggest you try KohaDevBox: https://github.com/digibib/kohadevbox

My recommended steps:
1- Get everything the source code
$ mkdir -p ~/git
$ cd ~/git
$ git clone git://git.koha-community.org/koha.git koha
$ git clone https://github.com/digibib/kohadevbox.git kohadevbox
$ echo "export SYNC_REPO=~/git/koha" >> ~/.bashrc
$ cd kohadevbox
$ cp vars/user.yml.sample vars/user.yml
[Use your favourite editor to set git_email, git_full_name, bz_user and
bz_password]
2- Install VirtualBox, Ansible and Vagrant
3- Open a new terminal (only to make sure ENV contains SYNC_REPO)
4- Run:
$ set | grep SYNC_REPO
[expected result is you see SYNC_REPO=~/git/koha]
$ cd ~/git/kohadevbox
$ SKIP_WEBINSTALLER=1 CREATE_ADMIN_USER=1 vagrant up

Once it finishes, you can access Koha using this addresses:
OPAC:
http://localhost:8080
Intranet:
http://localhost:8081

The default user/pass is koha/koha respectively. Can be changed on
vars/user.yml

To work on the source code, use your favourite IDE/Editor to access
~/git/koha.

To access the virtual machine running the dev env, you need to:

$ cd ~/git/kohadevbox
$ vagrant ssh

Everytime you change the source code (specially .pm and .pl files) you
should run (whithin the dev box):

k$ restart_all

Enjoy!
