Laravel blank page issue - Migrating from Linux to Windows - laravel

I have a laravel project running on Linux server without any issue. The files are in /public_html directory and "laravel" directory is out of public_html. It has mySQL 5.6 and PHP 7.1. The project works completely fine.
Now, we have decided to move this on windows server. I have setup same PHP and mySQL on new windows server. I have double checked and this is correct.
I have imported entire database to windows and files have been moved as below:
The files from /home/abcuser/public_html/ directory to
C:\HostingSpace\abc.com\wwwroot
The files from /home/abcuser/laravel directory to
C:\HostingSpace\abc.com\laravel
The IIS has site path as below:
C:\HostingSpace\abc.com\wwwroot
I set all required permissions to these directories and updated database connection in .env file.
I am now getting blank page with no error message. Do I still need to make any changes in code? Did anyone has experienced the same?

Finally got this fixed..
I had to enable some PHP extensions. What I did is:
Checked the list of disabled PHP extensions from IIS of concerned
site.
Checked whether the particular extension is enabled in oldserver where
it is working.
And Enabled it as needed.

Installing Magento 2 on localhost using WAMP gives me Page Not Found for Backend, no styling for Frontend

I tried to install Magento 2 on localhost using WAMP (php5.5, APACHE2.4.9 and MySQL5.6).
I added the required extension "intl" (by removing (;) in php.ini), but for some reason it didn't work - I had to copy the dll into the Apache bin folder.
I updated xdebug and had to create in php.ini an entry for xdebug.max_nesting_level = 50000;.
After all this I went to do the second phase of installation (database creation, etc...) and at the end it was successful. But upon trying to enter the Backend admin page, I get the error Page Not Found, and the Frontend was broken (no style).
So I installed the version with sample-date and the same thing happened, the only difference was the existence of the photos. I installed using the composer, and got the same error.
I think I did something wrong with the WAMP installation, but I'm not sure.
Another issue I encountered was on the themes in the installation with setup wizard: the app / design / frontend / magento folders are empty, while the github repository has two themes - why is that?
For broken styles and JS, please run php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy. You might want to provide your specific language code as input; default is en_US
Re empty theme folder, there are several methods to deploy and install, based on your needs. The github version is meant for contributing devs, and hence there are themes present in the app/design/ folder. However, if you deployed via composer, or downloaded the zip file from magento.com, the app/design folder will be empty, since the themes are loaded via composer, from the vendor/magento folder.

Setting Up Odoo Website from Server to Local Host

Well the big issue I got is how can I run Odoo on my local host (WAMP). I have gotten the files from my company server however I need to test and migrate it so I am trying to run it on my local host however I have had no luck even accessing a single web page. I have copied and pasted the folder into the correct location. However if I try to access it it just takes me to a 404 error or a directory listing page (folder structure)
So just wondering if anyone knows how I can run odoo files from my server to my local host????
Just copying folder structure is not enough for proper migration. You should also have access to the Odoo database: it uses PostgreSQL, and you should either have access to your company database server or duplicate database. It's even more important than files in Odoo directory.
Moreover, for running Odoo on your local machine, you should not have WAMP installed - python with some modules and PostgreSQL is enough.
If you want "clean" install and then using some migration tools, you can install Odoo into your machine (I provided link for 9.0 version, for 8.0 you can use this link or choose corresponding version on the Odoo installation page) - this method will setup all necessary environment automatically, but you should manually upload your data to the fresh install.
Installation from sources is some more tricky, but still not very hard. You can find instructions in official website.
After this you can check directory structure and copy your custom addons, templates, design or content from existing directory structure to the fresh one. Don't forget about database - without it you won't have huge part of your data available on company server.
For running Odoo you should run odoo.py with your python from your Odoo directory (you should have python 2.7.x installed on your machine).
By default Odoo uses port 8069, i. e. for accessing it you should type in browser
localhost:8069
For more detailed instructions please refer to Odoo documentation.

After copying the whole folder, they wont show up

I've been working on a website by building it on Joomla. I built it locally with XAMPP and today I copied the files to the directory on the FTP to publish the website and went to the admin panel and there are no plugins or templates, this is weird because I copied the whole folder and imported the database. Already did this twice but it seems to be another error than copy error.
Attention:
I did not install the template and plugins after getting the joomla online, I just copied it to the ftp
Your best bet is to use a tool like Akeeba Backup. This will automate the process and resolve most common issues when moving a Joomla site.

Joomla blank after changing server, admin panel good

I did a cPanel move of a Joomla 1.5 website and a PHPBB3 forum from one server to another, and when the DNS changes kicked in all I see is a blank page. The administrator panel works without any problems whatsoever. cPanel works. Website and forum (which is separate from the website) are both blank.
I have then manually downloaded and then uploaded all files (didn't move the databases manually), and some files wouldn't upload because of 555 file permissions. I changed the permissions to 777 temporarily to overwrite the file with the manually uploaded one. So all files are now the same as they were on the old server.
Even when I turn the Site Debugging on, the screen is blank.
There is no hidden index.html or default.html file which could be causing the problem.
The entire account was moved with cPanel so it's the same on the old server and the new server. The hosting provider reports no problems. The DNS changes kicked in two days ago.
PHP is working, as this link works: http://oklade.net/findpath.php
In configuration.php, there is nothing specifically pointing to the old site.
var $dbtype = 'WeboMySql';
var $host = 'localhost';
All roads in these cases generally lead to configuration.php Check spelling and punctuation for mistakes. Also, enable one of the default Joomla Templates to be sure that whatever template you're using isn't also using old values.
Problem is solved.
The configuration.php file was to blame, as everyone suggested, but there was no possible way to change it manually and get it right, I had to make the system determine its own configuration.
I installed a fresh version of Joomla in a separate folder, and a fresh version of PHPBB3 in a separate folder.
Then I took the configuration.php and config.php files for those two things and put them in the existing folders of the website which didn't work.
Changed the minor details such as database prefixes (as I couldn't have entered the existing ones while installing), and that's it. Now it works.
So this might be a good workaround for anyone facing the same problem. Install a dummy version of Joomla and use the generated configuration.php file for the old, non-functioning website.
Before starting to debug the server, turn debug-mode on (in the admin CP)
First thing I would try is to delete the cache by running: rm –rf /var/www/html/<your website directory>/var/cache/*
The next thing I would try is to switch to another template - make sure that the template is not the issue.
Also, make sure to check the apache access log - just in case. also, you can check .htaccess for stuff like 301 redirect rules or any other problematic configuration (same applies for httpd.conf and configuration.php)
Good luck!

install joomla on strato.de

I am creating a website based on Joomla! for my german friend who has a hosting in strato.de
I encountered many problems with installing Joomla on this hosting. After uploading Joomla 1.5.23 files on their server and trying to install Joomla, I got anerror:
Warning: file_put_contents(.../configuration.php) [function.file-put-contents]:
failed to open stream:
Permission denied in /.../installation/installer/models/model.php on line 850
After this, I created manually configuration.php and filled it with database data (passwords etc).
Joomla seemed to be installed, but when I tried to install any extension, I can't do it since it shows only errors like:
Cound not create directory
Component install: failed to create directory
Of course I tried to change directory permissions to 777 but it didn't help, always the same problem and no availability to install any component. The php info shows it's a SunOs on the server and i think something is wrong with owner of the files.
I also tried to install Joomla via strato own installator, but it gives the same errors.
I contacted strato de help office, but they answer was "we do not offer any technical / scripting support for either of the 3rd party CMS's".
Could someone help me please with that?
Has anyone succeed with installing Joomla and components on this hosting?
I would appreciate any help.
First, you should never set the permissions to anything to 777, that's a big security risk.
Next, chances are that the server is not configured properly to run Joomla without any problems. Joomla works a lot better when PHP is run in CGI mode rather than when it is run as an Apache module. Most likely the server you are on is running PHP as an Apache module, which causes a lot of issues.
You can get around a lot of the issues by turning on the FTP layer, but there are some things to check first -
Make sure that both the log and tmp directories exist in the root.
Check the directory permissions by logging in to the admin then Help > System Info > Directory Permissions (you should see the tmp and log directories here as well). Files should be 644, directories should be 755.
Turn on the FTP layer by going to Site > Global Configuration > Server > FTP Settings
If it still gives you errors, I would suggest moving to a better hosting company. Rochen Host has a data center in the UK and they handle all of the official Joomla websites. I use them and they are great. Everything works without any issues.
