WebtroPie

Okay … the dev version only installs libgd3 libxpm4 php-common php7.0-common, but exits with the same error in line 15 that I got before. It still needs php-fpm and php installed manually.

BUT after that, Webtropie Dev works! – At least apparently, I see the frontend and can browse my systems and games. So I can finally test it now.

Thanks for thinking with me. 😎

Hi. I followed the steps of installation and I can not go online. I'm connected to the same network. I do not know what is happening. Could someone put a quick guide and what do I have to do after installing it?

@morenr1 solve my problem, thanks!

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -t stretch php7.0

and the system starts to work.

So I guess WebtroPie is dead? Still haven't seen 1.0 nor any updates at all for awhile.

I myself am getting a permission denied "cannot create regular file"

@KimaRo Welcome to this forum.

The people reading here need more information to help you.

What hardware and operation system are you trying to run WebtroPie on?
Did you follow the installation instructions in Webtropie's Wiki?
At what point did the error occur?

@Clyde I actually fixed it, and for future reference for those maybe getting the same, make sure you delete the apps folder as that is what was creating the issue since I already had another issue I was reinstalling but never got it to work again.

Another issue I was getting was that whole libraries were disappearing on WebtroPie, this was happening within the gamelist text file and you had to delete some extra <game/> ends that were being created.

@KimaRo Thanks for sharing your solution.

You mean libraries of games? (i.e. not software libraries) And "was" means that you fixed this, too, by deleting the </game> tags?

If you suspect faulty code in WebtroPie, you could open an issue on Github even though it seems that the development has stopped. Sometimes, "dead" projects come to life again. 🌅
