New phplist install

ℹ️ Support
1

I’m asking for forgiveness! (this should be simple to solve. I’m missing something)

I’m doing an initial install of phplist.

I’m having issues with setting up the apache httpd.conf file.

Running:
Centos7
mysql/php are all at the required levels/versions

I’m looking to be able to have the user access the test site using:
http://123.4.55.34/plist (where plist is the alias setup in the httpd.conf)

Set up the dir with the phplist files

/var/www/html/lists <<<

also tried…

/var/www/html/phplist/public_html/lists <<<

In the httpd.conf file

I have tried…

/var/www/html/lists <<<
Alias /plist /var/www/html/lists
<Directory /var/www/html/lists>
AllowOverride All
#Order allow,deny
#Allow from all

as well as:

/var/www/html/phplist/public_html/lists <<<

Alias /plist /var/www/html/phplist/public_html/lists
<Directory /var/www/html/phplist/public_html/lists>
AllowOverride All
#Order allow,deny
#Allow from all

in the http://111.16.1.46/plist/admin/ (my test/local box)

I get::

Database error 1146 while doing query Table ‘plist.phplist_config’ doesn’t exist
Database error 1146 while doing query Table ‘plist.phplist_config’ doesn’t exist
Database error 1146 while doing query Table ‘plist.phplist_config’ doesn’t exist

Running in testmode, no emails will be sent. Check your config file.

The pageroot in your config “/lists” does not match the current location “/plist”. Check your config file.
Database error 1146 while doing query Table ‘plist.phplist_config’ doesn’t exist
Database error 1146 while doing query Table ‘plist.phplist_config’ doesn’t exist

Database has not been initialised. go to Initialise Database to continue

I know I can perform the “Initialise Database” but I’m trying to understand why I get the Database error lines… as well as exactly what/how the httpd.conf file should be configured.

Thoughts/comments??

thanks

This usually means that you have been logged in to phplist in the same browser session, so phplist does not detect that you have dropped all the database tables.
