Re: Linux startup script

Enable local.d Scripts rc-service local start and then create y...

Re: php mysqli_connect: authentication method unknown to the client [caching_sha2_password]

MYSQL has changed it type of password (since Mysql 8 ?)
Anyway the easiest solution, is execute the following SQL command on MYSQL

Code: Select all

ALTER USER 'mysqlUsername'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'mysqlUsernamePassword';
It should solve your problem.

Are you sure you are sending it to the right account?

sometimes you need to also add the domain name (even if it is not a public domain).

Code: Select all

sendmail user@host.domain.com

Re: postfix not mail from other hosts

are you sending to a user on the server.
Do a test from the client:

Code: Select all

sendmail user@host
and check the logs on the client and on the server.

Re: postfix forward mail to multiple recipients

Be careful to which email-address you forward. For example; if you forward an email coming from gmail to gmail, It will probably be flagged as spam. Because gmail knows that your server should not send email coming from gmail (or any other known email-providers). To prevent this you could do it all ...

Re: Wordpress upgrade

If the webserver-user has write access to the website directory,
an FTP-upload is not needed.

The following command should be enough:

Code: Select all

chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/name-of-site
or

Code: Select all

chown -R apache:apache /var/www/name-of-site
The you can retry the automatic-update,
and it should continue.

Re: wordpress test site

A little tip if you adapt the the hosts-file of your PC;
use private mode or incognito.

Some files get cached, if you use the same browser for both sites,
It can cause problems.
