Installing self-hosted offline - Doesn't work

Self-Hosted | v4/Legacy
1

Hello

Technically this is not a new topic. And it is not urgent.

However I have found it impossible to actually install InvoiceNinja on Xammp for windows. Or on Ampss for Linux.

Bitnami no longer has Invoice Ninja in there directory.

I have windows 10. And also Deepin 15.
Either way have tried and failed.
Have used rosehosting tutorial and the other one. Actually all on linux.
Have found no assistance for xammp besides recomendations of bitnami.

Just looking for anyone who has done a successful offline installation as of 2019.
On windows or Debian/Ubuntu Linux.

Thanks

Are you seeing a specific error?

@Equilibrium3 I have installed Invoice Ninja locally in XAMPP on windows 10. Please provide more information on you setup and the errors you are receiving. As a starting point I used the XAMPP installation that includes MariaDB.

Those errors seem to be from another application. Are you running another web server simultaneously? It can interfere with the default XAMPP setup.

I don’t believe so.
It’s only xammp.
If I visit the localhost/Invoice Ninja folder it just takes me to a directory view of the folder within my browser

What do you see if you add /public to the end of the URL?

The best practice is to map the server web root to the public folder.
