Damned I fucked up my last comment !
Well… I was wrinting :
@tituspijean
I confirm my system is up-to-date.
Last 2 lines in verbose mode install:
**+ sudo service nginx reload**
**Error: Installation failed**
Thx

@nimch, can you do in the terminal `sudo nginx -t` ? and post here what returned this command ?

Of course :
**nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok**
**nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful**

@frju365
I guess everything is OK with this `nginx -t` because in case of failure the installation script reverses everything back to normal. 😉
I think the problem lays with the `mv` command @nimch quoted earlier. If you are in a hurry and know how to do it, clone the repo, edit the `install` script and replace lines 78 and 79
```
sudo mkdir $final_path
sudo mv $tmp/$app $final_path/..
```
by
```
sudo cp -Rfv $tmp/$app $final_path/
```
Then run the moulinette with this local package. I will anyway look into it tonight.

@tituspijean
I did :
**git clone [GitHub - YunoHost-Apps/flarum\_ynh: Flarum, an open-source forum software, packaged for YunoHost](https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/flarum_ynh) /tmp/install\_script\_flarum**
**sudo vim /tmp/install\_script\_flarum/scripts/install**
> **#sudo mkdir $final\_path**
> **#sudo mv $tmp/$app $final\_path/…**
> **sudo cp -Rfv $tmp/$app $final\_path/**
**sudo yunohost app install /tmp/install\_script\_flarum --verbose**
=\> **Success**! Installation complete
Thx

hi
@tituspijean
I saw you’ve updated flarum package so I removed successful hacky install and I’m trying “official” install again.
I have another error, I’ve opened an issue [here](https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/flarum_ynh/issues/17).
**Warning: ERROR 1146 (42S02) at line 1: Table ‘flarum.api\_keys’ doesn’t exist**
**Error: Installation failed**

cf. [Application login by SSOwat or LDAP](https://forum.yunohost.org/t/application-login-by-ssowat-or-ldap/2028):
I’ve started a repo for a [LDAP login extension for Flarum](https://github.com/tituspijean/flarum-ext-auth-ldap). I have only put together a preexisting code for a SAML2 auth extension and a LDAP class for PHP. **Nothing** is functional, yet.
I’ve created issues to specify what’s to be done with the code. Feel free to help !

I’m interesting. Can post the update of your work here ?
Thanks and Great work.
PS: Since you have packaged Flarum, I have discovered this wonderful software and now I like Flarum. 🙂

LDAP authentication extension update : it works… if you have a user “test” with password “12345678”. 😅
I’m having difficulties with storing parameters and getting the login and password on Flarum’s side, so everything is pretty much hardcoded so far.

Good news here!
Thanks for your time and efforts. 😄
(I am keeping an eye on your Git repository for that specific topic in order to learn a bit, but I can’t be of any help 😓)

@jellium, @all,
I have managed to integrate SSOwat authentication into Flarum ! 😄 See this repository : [https://github.com/tituspijean/flarum-ext-auth-ssowat](https://github.com/tituspijean/flarum-ext-auth-ssowat)
I think it is not optimal, but here is the route : user logs in through SSOwat’s own login page, then their credentials are passed to the Flarum extension, which connects to YunoHost’s LDAP server to retrieve their email.
There’s still one [mishap](https://github.com/tituspijean/flarum-ext-auth-ssowat/issues/1). Flarum sends mixed messages upon signup : user is created, but Flarum says an error occured. Refreshing the page successfully makes the user logged in.
Once I fix this issue, I will integrate the extension in the Flarum package.

Can you guys try it the extension ? It needs more testers. 🙂

Hi @tituspijean,
Thanks for your work!
I can’t manage to install the extension. It seems that I have a problem with the config in `composer.json` as I am invited to change the `minimum-stability` to allow for `dev` level (see [here](https://getcomposer.org/doc/04-schema.md#minimum-stability)).
Despite my attempts, I can’t manage to install the extension and get the following error:
```auto
Do not run Composer as root/super user! See https://getcomposer.org/root for details
./composer.json has been updated
Loading composer repositories with package information
Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.
Problem 1
- The requested package tituspijean/flarum-ext-auth-ssowat could not be found in any version, there may be a typo in the package name.
Potential causes:
- A typo in the package name
- The package is not available in a stable-enough version according to your minimum-stability setting
see for more details.
Read for further common problems.
Installation failed, reverting ./composer.json to its original content.

Hi, thanks for trying !
What is the command you have used ?
- composer complains about that you ran it as root
- the error log doesn’t mention the “dev” option
Can you try to run `sudo -u www-data composer require --dev "tituspijean/flarum-ext-auth-ssowat:*@dev"` ?
