How can i Install Cattr in May 2024?

[airsay]

It looks like the documentation on docs.cattr.app is outdated. The Easy and advanced install both failed for me. So I visited https://git.amazingcat.net/cattr/core/app and followed the installation instructions there. I am getting a 500 Error. Here's what I have done so far

1. Spun up a Fresh instance of Debian 11
2. Update repos and upgraded preinstalled apps.
   sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
3. Installed basic prerquisites
   sudo apt install git wget sudo curl wget gnupg gnupg2 sb-release apt-transport-https ca-certificates software-properties-common -y
4. Installed MySQL 8.0

#Install MySQL
wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql-apt-config_0.8.30-1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i mysql-apt-config_0.8.30-1_all.deb
sudo wget -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/php.gpg https://packages.sury.org/php/apt.gpg
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb https://packages.sury.org/php/ $(lsb_release -sc) main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/php.list'
sudo apt update
sudo apt install mysql-server -y
sudo apt install php8.2 php8.2-{bcmath,bz2,intl,gd,mbstring,mysql,zip,curl,xml} -y
sudo apt install nginx php8.2-fpm -y

I noticed that running sudo apt install nginx php8.2-fpm -y resulted in Apache2 getting installed, causing nginx to fail when I attempt to start it using systemctl restart nginx. So I uninstalled Apache as shown below

5. Uninstall Apache

sudo systemctl stop apache2
sudo apt-get purge apache2 apache2-utils apache2-bin apache2.2-common
sudo apt-get remove apache2
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo rm -rf /etc/apache2
sudo rm -rf /var/www
sudo rm -rf /var/log/apache2
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apache2

6. Restarted nginx and php8.2-fpm

# Restart services to apply changes
sudo systemctl restart nginx
sudo systemctl restart php8.2-fpm

7.Installed Node.js v18 (the app does not support versions greater than v18)

# Install Node.js
#curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_current.x | sudo -E bash -
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_18.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt install -y nodejs

8. Installed Yarn

#install Yarn
curl -sS https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install yarn

9. Installed Composer

#install Composer
php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
php -r "if (hash_file('sha384', 'composer-setup.php') === 'dac665fdc30fdd8ec78b38b9800061b4150413ff2e3b6f88543c636f7cd84f6db9189d43a81e5503cda447da73c7e5b6') { echo 'Installer verified'; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt'; unlink('composer-setup.php'); } echo PHP_EOL;"
php composer-setup.php
php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

10. Cloned the repo

cd /opt
git clone https://git.amazingcat.net/cattr/core/app.git
cd app

11. Started install (which went swimmingly)

sudo composer install && sudo php artisan key:generate && sudo yarn
sudo php artisan migrate --seed --seeder=InitialSeeder
sudo php artisan cattr:make:admin
npm run prod

Snippet from My nginx.conf (/etc/nginx/nginx.conf)

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name 10.10.10.218;
    #root /var/www/html;
    root /opt/app/public;

    index index.php index.html index.htm;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php8.2-fpm.sock;
    }

    location ~ /\.ht {
        deny all;
    }
}

When I eventually visit the URL at http://10.10.10.218, I get an Error 500 with almost nothing to go on with. I have checked the
storage/logs/laravel.log and I only see an older error message about Mix manifest not found at: /opt/app/public/mix-manifest.json which I have since resolved.

I have looked at the Chrome browser console and the errors there don't make any sense as I don't even know what to look for even though I see a handful of errors mostly about
WebSocket connection to wss://10.10.10.218/app/cattr?protocol=7&client=js&version=8.4.8-rc2&flash=false

Can anyone suggest how to troubleshoot this?

Hello. Try to run yarn prod instead of npm run prod.

[airsay]

yarn prod doesn't seem to fix it. I still get Error 500

[airsay]

Just performed a fresh install, runinng yarn prod and still running into the same Error 500.

I also can't seem to get the docker version going. I see the cattr-frontend-1 in an unhealthy state

after which I run docker-compose -p cattr up -d and docker-compose -p cattr run --rm -it backend install

When I visit my server's ip address http://10.10.10.219 I get a ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED error.
