whilst following this howto (http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-owncloud-7-on-ubuntu-14.04) my pc updated and turned off in the middle of step 3. sudo apt-get install mariadb-server i never got the chance to put my password in. btw i was connected to server by ssh from this pc that turned off. Please help
No issues, just make the Server ON, again start ssh session and check whether maridb was installed or not with if not installed then install it again step 3 of guide. similarily verify if any packages were missed while installation in between the turnoff time. Again if the mariadb was installed then create the the password for the mariadb as follows: check the version then
thanks the problem was my user was already logged in and therefore couldnt log in again.(I think) i rebooted server and started where i left off
Not sure I'm posting in correct place but title of this thread says it for me. Anyway, I have installed ownCloud server on Ubuntu per these very excellent instructions http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-owncloud-7-on-ubuntu-14.04. All seems well on the server side in that I can login, etc. But, when I go to Windows, install client and try to access cloud from that platform (connect to ownCloud) I get the following message: Failed to connect to ownCloud at http://192.168.0.78/owncloud/status.php: Error downloading http://192.168.0.78/owncloud/status.php - server replied: Service Unavailable" I've checked to ensure that the conifig.php file really does exists in the proper place but I'm at a loss as to what to try next. I've searched google and can find little about this problem. I'd appreciate some guidance. Thanks in advance.
Additional Info. I went back thru instructions on server side and retraced my steps thru the section on setting up davfs2, etc. Found that I had skipped a few of these. When I fixed that I got the following message after the mount owncloud section: /sbin/mount.davfs: Mounting failed. 503 Service Unavailable. I guess I'm stuck again.
For any fresh issues you can open any new thread. I believe your machine could be the problem, unistall the previous ownclient from windows machine download this latest one from https://download.owncloud.com/desktop/stable/ownCloud-1.6.4.4041-setup.exe and then try to get the things tested again.
