Topic: HOWTO Install OrangeHRM on SME 7.x

[thomasch]

Hi,

I do not use OrangeHRM on daily basis and my installation of OrangeHRM went away with my old server.
I am pretty busy with my job (I have a company to run). So, I can't check the correctness of the page.
Any correction/addition to the wiki are welcome.

All I can do to maintain the howto now is add a link of this forum topic to the wiki page.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Have a look at the logfiles, you will most likely find a clue in the /var/log/httpd/error_log or acccess_log files.

what now?

According to the above you seem to not use a SSL connection, eg. using https://. What is the full URL you are using to access your installation?

what to do ?

Did anything change in the logfiles? What do they say when you access the site over https? Please keep in mind that we are not behind your server.

No not really as it has no context. Please post a little more of the error_log file, the part leading up to this as well as a snippet of the access_log file from around the same time.

It seems you have lost the SSL error so we are already one step further. Unfortunately the premature end of script header is a very general one. Please follow the instructions from this link. It will configure PHP to display a more extensive error message in your browser, perhaps we can gain some more information from that.

Please retry to access the site after you have followed the instructions and post back any errors displayed in your browser.

And did you access your website? Did it output anything to the browser? What you just posted is just the result of your webserver starting up.
