Elon Report

I am unable to close this topic. I will open another asking the community who has worked with AWS Elasticache.

OK - I'll ask the community. Thanks Marc. 🙂

Hey @Marc, I've created the user with a password - thx! Can you ask your colleague what do next? I have created the Elasticache user and entered the password in my community GUI, but without permissions, it doesn't work. I'm having problems adding such a user as a principal in the trust entry for the role assigned to my EC2 instance hosting my forum. It's a normal user ARN but it's not accepting it in the editor. @ptprog - All ports are open for testing, and I did use the endpoint URL. I found out I did not have the redis cli installed. It gives me the error saying it could not connect to 127.0.0.1. Is there something I have to configure on the EC2?

Sorry I misread the quote. I agree. 🙂

AWS does not have passwords for their Elasticache - they rely on internal security. Things I have done: Made sure the Redis and server are in the same VPC. Added an IAM role to the server giving it full access to elasticache. Added the Redis security group as CIDR in the outbound connections. Any AWS gurus have any idea?

Cheating. Does this tie into the best answers report? I see my checkmark went up, and in some communities that may have value, so I was just wondering.

Solved it! Freespot has javascript and iframe code. Using the iframe code works. Edit: Just marked as a solution and I got away with it! Should I able to mark my own replies?

Hello, I have a page with a single column. I have placed two custom blocks into the middle row (single column). The first one is a Feedspot feed, the second is PHP code that says Hello. This is how it turns out: I have tried placing the blocks in the upper or lower rows as well as the center. The php block always overlaps the RSS feed. Any suggestions?

I am using AWS Elasticache and have entered the server address and port in the GUI, but there is no server password. Leaving the password blank results in an error. Do I need to play around with access roles and permissions?

Yes, that was the problem. I undid manual changes that had conflicted with Plesk. I would not have known to do that had you not posted.

Ok. That means something is misconfigured in Plesk. If I go to https://elon.report/anything I get redirected.

I've run into a problem following the guide: If you are using .htaccess for friendly url rewrites you may also need to adjust the path in the .htaccess file or download a new one from the admincp > Search Engine Optimization > Friendly URL sub-tab. I do need this file (it did not exist on my windows server) but I cannot login to my community. https://elon.report is being incorrectly redirected and I'm not sure what to do in Ubuntu.

I did. Very helpful... Seeing as I am already using the new database, all I need to do is take it offline and copy all files over. I just hope the Windows -> Linux move doesn't mess anything. Will try this tomorrow on a fresh mind. Thx Marc.

Update! How do I know when the files have been moved from file system to MySql? It's been hours and I only have 100mb of data or so. I am still confused about the order/necessity of the following: Installing IPB pointing to the existing database Copying over files Moving DNS I don't really care about downtime, I just don't want to lose existing data. I can even pause all database updates for up to an hour if needed. This one error really bugs me. 🙂

I am moving my community to its new home - a Linux home! I already have the database on the new server, and am wondering the steps to take to move the community. My data storage method is file system, but I want to change that. This is what I assume I should do. Is this correct? Back up files and database Switch old server from file system to MySQL and wait for it to finish. Change my hosts file to point to new server Install IPB on the new server Verify the community comes up - will this harm anything having two communities on the same dbase? Change the public DNS
