Troubleshooting
Low memory
errors
A swapfile will enable your system to extend its limited memory through its disk capacity. The following commands will create a 1 GB swapfile.
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1024 count=1024000
sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
sudo mkswap /swapfile
sudo swapon /swapfile
Then add this line in /etc/fstab
:
/swapfile none swap sw 0 0
Reboot the system and try the installation again.
Timeout
errors
Some users have reported a successful installation, but get a blank page due to a timeout
on a PHP script that prepares the forum assests (Minify.php
, notably).
In /etc/php/*php_version*/fpm/pool.d/*app_id*.conf
, you can increase the max_execution_time
and max_input_time
limits (both values are in seconds if nothing is specified).
Reload PHP-FPM with sudo service php*php_version*-fpm reload
.
Upload limit
If you are facing an error while uploading large files into the forum, PHP may be limiting file upload.
In /etc/php/*php_version*/fpm/pool.d/*app_id*.conf
, you can uncomment (remove ;
at the beginning of the line) and increase the values of upload_max_filesize
and post_max_size
(both values are in bytes).
Reload PHP-FPM with sudo service php*php_version*-fpm reload
.
