error in configuring websever

[chunkhang123]

during the step of moving contents of 'web' folder to my webserver, the ubuntu 18.04 lts responded with 'could not stat web:no such file or directory.'

can anyone lend me some help, I'm new to this.

Can you do "ls"? I think the web directory isn't where you think it is.

[chunkhang123]

thx for the reply, but im sorry that, what do you mean by "ls"? can I know more detail about that?
Is this what u mean?

By the way, I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on Windows 10 via WSL 2.

[surfrock66]

well, there's your issue...the web directory isn't there, so it can't copy it to /var/www/torque.

Can you do 'ls -1 /var/www' and 'ls -1 /var/www/torque'?

here is what I got back from the ubuntu

so sorry for the confusion, I've edited with the correct command.

Is the document 'web' needed to be downloaded or created from elsewhere? since it's not spotted in the /var/www/torque.
If yes, can I know how? :-(

[surfrock66]

First, can you confirm, is your web root (so, http://127.0.0.1/ or https://127.0.0.1/ ) /var/www or /var/www/html, I know different apache configurations use different web roots.

Your /torque/ directory looks just like mine. When I go to https://server.domain.tld/torque/ I get the index.html in that folder. The web directory is just to separate the scripts from the web root, you don't need a directory called "web" in your actual web root.

[chunkhang123]

Does it mean my web root is in '/var/www/html' ?
btw I cant access to http://127.0.0.1/ and https://127.0.0.1/, instead i went to http://localhost , hope they are the same.

[surfrock66]

Sorry for the delay; yes it looks like the web root is /var/www/html instead of /var/www, so move the torque directory there

cd /var/www
mv torque html/

Hi, these are the latest update


After all that, I've edited the db_user, db_pass and db_port.
However, can I know in the next step, to enter the URL into the upload_data.php, which line to enter the URL into? cuz I couldn't find it just by looking for the obvious wording or signs.

Or is it in the other PHP file? I've gone thru several of the PHP files as well, hopefully I didn't miss any of it.

[surfrock66]

Before worrying about the data upload, can you check that going to http://localhost/torque/ works?

[chunkhang123]

Thanks for the reply Surfrock 66
It looks like something is missing in my session.php file?

[surfrock66]

Nope, that indicates there's an issue with the sql setup. It's been a while since I set this up (my install has been working for like 6 years so the setup is a bit distant in my mind). Can you confirm the database has been created and the tables are there?

[chunkhang123]

This is the databases, but i didnt see any kind of tables in here.
Is the table supposed to be here or inside one of those databases?
can I know what type of the file is? like .csv or something else, this will ease my finding.

[chunkhang123]

I guess you were saying this
seems like this is the problem u mentioned
Can I know what's causing this?

[surfrock66]

That's the one; can you actually enter the directory with the "create_torque..." file and run that same command, but "mysql -u khang -p < create_torque_log_table.sql", just make sure you can see the .sql file with ls before doing that.
