Some Example Configs

Be aware that this are example configurations. You may have to adjust these configs to fit your needs. All examples are for installations where Wavelog is NOT installed in a subfolder.

Tip

We only enable HTTP (Port 80) configs here by default. We highly suggest you to configure your webserver with HTTPS (Port 443) and a valid certificate. One benefit next to encrypted communication (way more safe!) is that the 'KEEP LOGIN' feature, which remembers your login for 30 days is only available when using Wavelog with HTTPS. For more Information about HTTPS in Wavelog check out this page "HTTPS Support"

Apache2

Dependencies

Make sure you enable the rewrite module

a2enmod rewrite

Copy the htaccess file

cp /var/www/html/htaccess.sample /var/www/html/.htaccess

Configuration

<VirtualHost *:80>

        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

        DocumentRoot /var/www/html

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

        <Directory /var/www/html>
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
                AllowOverride All
                Require all granted
        </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

Remove index.php from the URL with Apache2 (Pretty URL)

Just set $config['index_page'] in your application/config/config.php to ''

Warning

Do not edit any file before Wavelog is successfully installed. The final editable file aplication/config/config.php is generated during the installation.

$config['index_page'] = '';

And restart Apache2

systemctl restart apache2

Nginx

Remove index.php from the URL with Nginx (Pretty URL)

Just set $config['index_page'] in your application/config/config.php to ''

$config['index_page'] = '';

You may need to restart the webserver and php-fpm. Change the php version number if you have another version then 8.2.

systemctl restart nginx php8.2-fpm
# on manjaro / arch linux
systemctl restart nginx php-fpm
