Server | website connection refused

Hello,

I've installed a LAMP server (Archlinux, Apache, Mariadb, Php) with 2 wordpress (multi-site > Virtual host). My problem is when I tried to connect to the 2 websites, I've got an error message about the connection were refused.
ex: http://www.universal-genesis.net
http://vps429820.ovh.net

I don't know the command to verify the Apache status (systemctl status Apache> cmd not found; service httpd status> cmd not found)

Re: Server | website connection refused

nmap doesn't report ports 80 or 443 to be open on your server.  So either htppd.service is not (properly) running, or traffic is being blocked by a firewall.

So I can find the problem (httpd.conf - syntax error) but now I've got an other problem on the two website...

Re: Server | website connection refused

Did you follow all of the instructions in the wiki to install wordpress properly?

Re: Server | website connection refused

Some steps but not all of it for the simple reason, it didn't cover the virtual host and don't grant the right that wordpress need to proper install themes and plugins.

here the different tutorials that i used:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wordpress
https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/arc … s-install/
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/ … arch-linux
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/ … arch-linux
https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions

After the install I moved the two websites in the same folder, because it was a mess.
WP - agency > /srv/http/WPagence
WP - unigen> /srv/http/unigen/WPunigen

each wordpress has its own configuration files
httpd.conf

Include /etc/httpd/conf/site/wpagence.conf
Include /etc/httpd/conf/site/wpunigen.conf 

wpagence.conf

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin frenchybreak@gmail.com

    ServerName vps429820.ovh.net

Does anything show up in the error logs when you try to access the sites?

Re: Server | website connection refused

Hit F12 in your browser and reload the page, you'll see that the site is trying to load content like:
http://vps429820.ovh.net/wordpress/wp-c … ss?ver=4.8  (for http://vps429820.ovh.net/)
http://vps429820.ovh.net/ug/wp-content/ … ss?ver=4.8 (for http://www.universal-genesis.net/)
so in your /srv/http/WPagence you need a wordpress and an ug directory with wordpress installs (or links if I remember how multisite works).

For two sites it ain't worth dealing with multisite, the easiest soultion is using two different wordpress installs: keeping them updated is fairly easy.

edit: also, please consider adding SSL to your sites https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Le … 9s_Encrypt

Thanks for the link. I've been meaning to apply encryption to my personally hosted WordPress server.

Re: Server | website connection refused

the two websites have their own different wordpress install.

I've just reinstalled wordpress on each diretory. I created a new database for the wordpress "Agence", to have something cleaner. the install went good.
For the wordpress "unigen", I used the previous database and during the install, I received a error message saying that wordpress was already install.

http://vps429820.ovh.net
http://www.universal-genesis.net

the SSL connection (https) is already planned, but it would be great that the website works first.
