Solved Shlink on LAMP, APC absent?

[yusf]

Hi, I'm trying to get Shlink going on a LAMP app but it seems to crash over an APCU thing, though APCU should be included in LAMP. Can it possibly be fixed?

php -i | grep apc yields nothing.

The lamp app ships currently with yac instead of apcu and they don't seem to be compatible to be installed in parallel it seems. I am not an expert on either of them, do you or anyone know how to resolve this otherwise?

[yusf]

I've no idea yet, but I want to look into it. Btw, apcu is listed in the docs still, while yac is not.

@yusf I think it's a bug that yac got installed as default instead of acpu. This was because of an ordering issue in the package installation. I think ACPu is what we want to support as part of LAMP app (and keeps it consistent with the docs as well).

[girish]

I have pushed an update to the LAMP app. With the update, I was able to install and run shlink. To test, make a fresh LAMP installation (updates will take a while to roll out).

[yusf]

Excellent, thank you!

[yusf]

I got it to work. The external app, https://app.shlink.io, can't reach the API though I can't figure out why. It should just be http requests, right?

Also, the app now reports back to box as "Not responding" though it's running.

[girish]

I think the not responding is because the root of the app returns a 404 There is no admin panel for shlink afaict (I used the CLI tool to test).

[yusf]

Okay, I understand. It's fine by me.

The separate admin panel's latest release just renders a blank page for me (locally and on LAMP) ¯_(ツ)_/¯
