How to get a working installation from a cloned repository

[lordscarlet]

I am bringing the discussion from https://github.com/jeffpiazza/derbynet/issues/203#issuecomment-1891098918 here.

I am on Windows, but I nominally seem to have it running with:

docker run -d -p 80:80 -p443:443 -v c:\users\theid\source\sandbox\derbynet\lib\:/var/lib/derbynet --mount type=bind,src=c:\users\theid\source\sandbox\derbynet\website\,target=/var/www/html,readonly jeffpiazza/derbynet_server

However, I don't get very far as I get a 500 because of

2024/01/15 14:18:54 [error] 18#18: *6 FastCGI sent in stderr: "PHP message: PHP Warning:  require_once(inc/banner.inc): Failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/setup.php on line 4; PHP message: PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: Failed opening required 'inc/banner.inc' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php82') in /var/www/html/setup.php:4

Looking at the repository, it does seem like that file does not exist.

Is this something that ant may generate? That is a separate rabbit hole for me to go in, as I don't have Java installed.

That was it, I believe. I was able to quickly load ant by using WSL.

I used:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ant

I did get some errors, but the setup page loads

I don't have time to do more right now, but I will update this thread as I progress

I didn't particularly want to install Java and Ant on my system, so I poked ChatGPT and ended up adding this Dockerfile to a new build directory:

# From root of repo:
# docker build -t apache-ant -f build/Dockerfile .
# docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/workspace apache-ant ant generated

# Or, to run multiple ant commands,
# docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/workspace apache-ant
# [your commands]
# exit

# Contents below adapted from a ChatGPT response. Proceed with caution. :)

# Use a base image with Java 8 already installed
FROM openjdk:8-jdk

# Set environment variables
ENV ANT_VERSION 1.10.14
ENV ANT_HOME /opt/apache-ant-$ANT_VERSION
ENV PATH $PATH:$ANT_HOME/bin

# Install required packages
RUN apt-get update && \
    apt-get install -y wget && \
    rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

# Download and install Apache Ant
RUN wget -qO- https://downloads.apache.org/ant/binaries/apache-ant-$ANT_VERSION-bin.tar.gz | tar xvz -C /opt

# Set working directory
WORKDIR /workspace

I don't have LibreOffice installed, so I also needed to remove quickref from the dependencies of generated in build.xml, and then I was up and running!
