At first glance, I don't see any issue to replace Apache with Nginx.
You'll have to install PHP with Nginx, what is less easy than PHP as Apache module, but this can be done using PHP-FPM.
You'll find some tutorilas on the web for that : https://www.howtoforge.com/installing-nginx-with-php5-and-php-fpm-and-mysql-support-lemp-on-debian-wheezy

Hi Babynus,

thank you for your answer. Nginx with PHP5-FPM and MySQL are already running (for example with MediaWiki on the same host) - no errors, running fine and smooth. Just when trying to install Projeqtor (no matter which version 4.5.x, 5.0.0, 5.0.1) i am running into issues with Database - therefore i am not sure if its a general connectivity problem or a failing redirect?

But for now i am getting an error running the check tool /tool/configCheck.php -> Module PDO for is not available - check your php configuration (php.ini)

but when trying to run php5-fpm -i the result is, that pdo is enabled for mysql? Any hints for?

Thank you!

Hi,

First, logged issue is not a real issue : it appears on clean installs before V5.0 (these errors are hidden on V5.0), because database is empty.

Next, if you really get error "Module PDO for is not available - check your php configuration (php.ini)", it means you did not specify the database type.
If should be "mysql" or "pgsql".
Try and reconfigure or set $paramDbType='mysql' in parameters.php file;

Hi,

seems to be alright. $paramDbType='mysql' is set in parameters PHP File. Even the first configurator runs fine. Login is impossible and it seems as the Database isn't filled at all?

Could you post result of phpinfo(); ?

Hi,

yes, of course, as you can see in the attachment everything seems to be ok? Or is it the Wrong version for?

I cannot see much.
(no attached file)

Hi,

attached is the phpinfo. As i read it pdo is also defined as it should be?

(Sorry, html was blocked)

Failed to upload file '20150629 PHPINFO.pdf': The file size (5635884) exceeds the maximum set by the administrator.

Can i send it to you via mail?

send at support@projeqtor.org

thanks, was sent to you.

Good.
No issue on phpinfo : all required modules are set : 'mysql', 'pdo', 'pdo_mysql' and even 'mbstring'
Only possible issue with modules is incompatibility of version between pdo_mysql and database, but I really don't think issue is here.

Do you still have error message "Module PDO for is not available - check your php configuration (php.ini)" ?
What is weird is that it should display "Module PDO for mysql is not available".
Error message makes me think that $paramDbType is not set.

What you can try :
1) check file /tool/parametersLocation.php : $parametersLocation will tell you which parameters.php file is used.
Open this parameters.php and check value of $paramDbType (check all file to be sure it is not overwritter in the end)

2) if $paramDbType is correctly set, try and add some debug lines in /tool/configCheck.php
For instance, on line 38, add :

var_dump($param);

uhm..something is really going wrong here.

Now it doesn't show anything @checkConfig.php

1. leads forward to files/config/parameters.php which tells me that $paramDbType is set to "mysql"

2. returns just NULL, well that seems problematic.any hints?

delete /tool/parametersLocation.php to run config again.

Hi,

done, configuration and database were created.
rerun configCheck => NULL?

seems to be a bigger Problem behind all or should i redownload the whole programm once?
