Error During Passbolt Install on CentOS7

Hello,

I’m running into an issue when installing Passbolt. I get “The GnuPG config for the server is not available or incomplete. please run ./app/console/cake passbolt healthcheck for more information and help”.
When I try to run the healthcheck i get a message stating that Passbolt commands cannot be executed as root.

I’ve followed all the steps from the site however the only step that i had trouble with was step 9. I think i’m just not pasting it correctly into the terminal.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Walt

Hello @wsousa

The GnuPG config for the server is not available

The error you are getting means that your configuration file config/passbolt.php is missing or incomplete.
Check the step 11. of the installation guide : Passbolt Help | Install Passbolt CE on Debian 9 (Stretch)

When I try to run the healthcheck i get a message stating that Passbolt commands cannot be executed as root.

The healthcheck command has to be executed with the user who runs the web server (nginx or www-data).
The command given at the step 10. allows you to do that.

Cheers

Thank you for your response. I think something is off in the closing of the passbolt.php file. Does this look right?

these are the last lines:

Note: I ran through everything again and still get this message: PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting ‘]’ in /var/www/passbolt/config/passbolt.php on line 146. This happenes to be the end of the file.
I have made all necessary changes as recommended but still no go.

Thank you,
Walt

hi @cedric

I was able to run a healthcheck and it found 9 errors. Below are the results:
bash-4.2$ ./bin/cake passbolt healthcheck

Hello @wsousa,

From what I can see the configuration of your server gpg key is not passing the healtcheck.
If you are using the nginx gpg keyring only with passbolt, I would advice you to delete it (/var/lib/nginx/.gnupg) and to follow again the step 8. and 9. of the documentation (https://help.passbolt.com/hosting/install/ce/centos-7.html)

FYI: In a couple of days we are releasing scripts to easily install and configure passbolt on a bare metal server (centos/debian/ubuntu).
