Hello colleagues, I have installed Open-EMR 4.2.0 in /var/www/ under Debian 8. I need paralel installation for testing purposes . But if I create second folder containing original Open-EMR files named openemr1 or openemrtest, I can not start installation from these folder under localhost/openerm1/setup.php or /localhost/openemrtest/setup.php and message that these locations and files doesnt exist will appear. Any sugestion ? thank you Tomas

Hello

This may be due to either the localhost path(DocumentRoot) and the folder path differs or the files under the folders may be missing.
Where does your localhost points to? If its point to /var/www/, then make sure you have copied the new folders under /var/www/ folder. And also check, whether the folders have copied correctly.

Yes, I have copied folders exactly to /var/www by commands
tar -pxvzf openemr-4.2.0.tar.gz
mv openemr-4.2.0 /var/www/openemr1

So this is exactly same way as original installation of openemr. But unfortunatelly if I open http://localhost/openemr1/setup.php message that these directory and files dont exist on server. :frowning:

Make a text file:

Hello.txt and place this file in: var/www/Hello.txt

Open in Browser: localhost/Hello.txt

From here continue with your explorations. DB or other pieces of Software in the wrong location.

In Mint17 the path to localhost is var/www/html/

Look into your folders:

the next result of the mv command could also be the problem:

var/www/openemr1/openemr-4.2.0/

Two options, install test environment in an appliance or with dual boot.

Fairly straightforward to install Linux Mint 17 on the second partition & then package.

Hi,

Debian 8 default web directory is at /var/www/html . Does it work if you place the other openemr copy at /var/www/html/openemrtest/ ?

Note that the OpenEMR debian/ubuntu package (which I am guessing you used) places openemr at /var/www/ and configs apache via an alias(simple to set up) to see it.
