Amazing tutorial. Every instruction needs to be followed precisely and consecutively to get this tutorial to work. I tried to be smart and download 3.0.3.17 [the latest & greatest] and flunked miserably.

Now that I was able to get this working end to end, if anyone needs some help or is stuck, feel free to reach out to me directly at makhani@berkeley.edu. I got you!

Likewise for those that receive headaches when programming & configuring the latest & greatest software, I am available for consulting. Email me at the address aforementioned.

Lastly, I just wanted to thank the author for writing a damn good tutorial. This stuff is super hard and I really respect those that go out of their way to put up content for education.

Sincerely
Samir

Hi, I followed this tutorial roughly a dozen times! And I still can’t get the front end to work – I can view the dashboard, at domain.com/admin but the store will not show at domain.com

I’ve had some instructions adjust permissions of folders but I am completely lost. I feel like there is a step missing from this tutorial to get the front end to show on the domain.

I found out few errors on the post.
sudo chown -R bitnami:daemon /opt/bitnami/apache2/htdocs/ –this is wrong

sudo chown -R daemon:daemon /opt/bitnami/apache2/htdocs/ –replace with this

mv ./backup/upload/* . –this is wrong

sudo mv ./backup/upload/* . ./ –replace with this in this case you move the files to htdocs

this command got a syntex error : $db->query(“SET @@session.sql_mode = ””);
replace it with $db->query(“SET @@session.sql_mode = ””);

final step, manually move storage folder, dont let it move autometically, then edit config files to point to new location for Storage folder
