I followed a tutorial from this forum on installing lampp on my manjaro (HowTo Install Apache , MariaDB(Mysql),PHP (LAMP)). Everything works fine, but I can’t find any logs (php_error_log) or configs.
Before I reinstalled Manjaro last week, I used a lampp installation from ubuntuusers_de, which was way easier to get running (3 terminal commands) and had all files in one dir. Additionally it needed to be started with a command and was easy to restart or shutdown the server, while the new manjaro-version is running all the time after every bootup.
Is there a way to get a similar DE with the already installed manjaro-version or do I have to switch back to the ubuntu version?
Logs are in your journal or in /var/log . For Apache (httpd) the normal folder is /var/log/httpd/
But you can configure any other folder you want, just make sure you set the correct permissions.
The config for httpd is in /etc/httpd/ , since you followed the tutorial you should know that.
If you don’t want to run httpd on every startup, don’t enable the service. If the service is enabled, disable it.
systemctl disable httpd
To start a service you can use
systemctl start httpd
to stop
systemctl stop httpd
Did you mean with DE Desktop Environment. Ubuntu uses Gnome, there is a Manjaro Gnome edition. But depending on the Manjaro edition you used to install your system, it might be better to do a fresh install.
If you don’t have time to learn a completely new distribution and don’t want the benefits Manjaro provides you might be better of with a distribution you know.
You’re confused again, DE stands for Desktop Environment, usually, and Manjaro is not a Desktop Environment, it is a distribution (with various ISO offering various desktop environments).
Yeah, I’m not 100% sure if “/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf” is the same config I needed a few months ago. Unfortunately I can’t remember what it was and what for. But I can’t find anything else, so it will be it
so you followed this:
