Configure Apache for Coppermine
Next, you will need to create an apache virtual host file for Coppermine. You can do this by running the following commmand:
sudo /etc/apache2/sites-available/coppermine.conf
Should this not be vi or nano between the sudo and the file path?
<VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin [email protected] DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/coppermine" ServerName yourdomain.com <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All <Directory "/var/www/html/coppermine/"> Options MultiViews FollowSymlinks AllowOverride All Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> TransferLog /var/log/apache2/coppermine_access.log ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/coppermine_error.log </VirtualHost>Syntax error on line 17 of /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/coppermine.conf: Expected </Directory> but saw </VirtualHost>
There is an issue with line 5 of the <VirtualHost> config file. The <Directory> Tag is opened up twice, without a second close, and no args for the first tag. Fix this by replacing
<Directory />
with
<Directory "/var/www/html/coppermine/">Then, delete the repeated line. Run 'apachectl configtest' to check for spelling errors, then run 'systemctl reload apache2' to run.
