My silly mistake: I hadn't checked permissions after copying the website files into the public_html folder! A simple chmod and it's working....with some glitches on other pages, but I've been there...
I'm running Ubuntu 22.04 on VirtualBox, itself running on Ubuntu Mate 22.04. Following various online guides I've successfully installed the LAMP stack (using MariaDB rather than MySQL) and...
Wow! dragonfly41 - what an incredibly helpful post! I'm greatly indebted to you. Lots to learn but some very helpful signposts.
I've edited the index page as suggested by halogen2 and that's...
Having downloaded the index.html page to have a look at it I think I need a bit more help with this! I'm assuming I need to find every instance of

and change...
Thanks so much for your troubleshooting on this. My problem is that I don't really understand code, so for me it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. But now you've identified where the problem...
As a workaround, have you tried caffeine? https://www.imaginelinux.com/caffeine-for-ubuntu/ If you put caffeine indicator in with your startup applications, it will put an icon in your panel that...
Apologies - I made a typo inputting the URL. It's mappingmemory, with a g.
Thanks for pointing it out and your suggestion re fonts. I don't see how the latter could affect the main problem,...
I'm seeking assistance troubleshooting a bizarre webpage anomaly.
I've recently helped my partner and her friend to transfer a small website from Weebly, where it was created largely by the...
Finally got there! I always suspected it was a simple configuration issue. Editing the apache2.conf file and changing all instances of "Override None" to "Override All" got everything working again...
Digging back into early correspondence with the guy who created the website, I'm reminded that there was a similar problem when PHP evolved between versions and register_globals was defaulted from...
Thanks for this. The only error log I can find is in /var/log/apache2 and that doesn't show anything problematic. Nor does the console tab in DT. However, your comment on the directory structure had...
Thanks very much for your help.
I'm not too bothered about the suhosin issue if it's not critical to operation.
I've edited the main.php file as you suggested and indeed the error messages in...
It shouldn't be necessary to reinstall Ubuntu. An application called GParted, available through the Ubuntu Software app (which itself comes ready installed and is on your menu), is a very reliable...
Attempting to update my partner's website, untouched since 2018 due to a stroke. First objective: a functioning local test site. I'm moderately tech confident but can't read code.
I've fresh...
Thanks for responding, Yanek. I think you've identified the problem: the Media drive is ntfs, because it was originally shared with a Windows installation. I will investigate umask. Thanks.
Running Ubuntu-Gnome 16.04 on an elderly machine. I have a separate internal hard drive - Media - which I use for data storage. I'm moving to a new machine and want to copy key folders (Photos,...
All working again now - weird! Maybe a browser caching issue? - though I didn't consciously clear the cache.
After some updates to the code of a small website it was working flawlessly in a testbed on my UbuntuGnome 16.04 desktop, running the lamp server with php5.6 installed as suggested here:...
That's very helpful - thank you. I'll check out those two sites.
I'm now more than ever convinced that possibility no. 2 in my previous post is correct, as last night I found some emails (which I'd completely forgotten :oops:) exchanged with the original developer...
Hi all! I hope this is the right place to seek advice. Although I use Ubuntu (16.04) this is not an Ubuntu specific issue, and having looked at the coding section of the forums I'm quickly out of my...
I'm back on the case, having made little progress. Thanks, SeijiSensei, for your last post explaining the variables error more clearly. It would be challenging for me, but I probably could work out...

Yep, it certainly is ancient; I built it myself back in the early 2000s. I tried to future-proof it, but never dreamed it would keep going this long, and of course it wouldn't have done were it...
Thanks, SeijiSensei, for your further assistance. Installing php-gd has sorted the missing thumbnails from the grid and grepping the log for 'Undefined function' brings up no further instances. So...
Thanks for the advice and for the links. The trouble is: we're running on ancient machines, which struggle to run a VM. I had thought about trying to install PHP 5 on my own desktop, following your...
