Espocrm Bad Server Response

[rabii]

Hey Guys,

I have installed espocrm on my local mac, i have used a web server called Valet (created for Laravel Dev but works with any php application). The installation has been completed however when i visit the application url i get bad server response, please see attached screenshot.

Anyone can help please, what env you have set up for mac to allow espocrm installation ?

Many thanks
Rabii

Hello, in your root folder go to data/logs and look for the log file. There might be some more information, that you could post here.
As I read about Valet, it needs drivers to run php script. Maybe you will have to write your own driver for espoCRM: https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/valet#custom-valet-drivers

Or you use this local server: https://www.mamp.info/de/mac/

i have tried valet custom driver but i couldn't do it, i am not evening sure how espocrm get bootstrapped, there is no public folder. i tried the code for a custom driver as below :

<?php

class BasicPHPValetDriver extends ValetDriver
{
/**
* Determine if the driver serves the request.
*
* @param string $sitePath
* @param string $siteName
* @param string $uri
* @return bool
*/
public function serves($sitePath, $siteName, $uri)
{
return true;
}

/**
* Determine if the incoming request is for a static file.
*
* @param string $sitePath
* @param string $siteName
* @param string $uri
* @return string|false
*/
public function isStaticFile($sitePath, $siteName, $uri)
{
if (file_exists($staticFilePath = $sitePath.'/'.$uri) && is_file($staticFilePath)) {
return $staticFilePath;
}

return false;
}

/**
* Get the fully resolved path to the application's front controller.
*
* @param string $sitePath
* @param string $siteName
* @param string $uri
* @return string
*/
public function frontControllerPath($sitePath, $siteName, $uri)
{
// Shortcut for getting the "local" hostname as the HTTP_HOST
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_ORIGINAL_HOST'], $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST'])) {
$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST'];
}

$_GET['url'] = $uri;

return $sitePath.'/index.php';
}
}

also tried MAMP but didn't work, any tips.

Help please
Thanks

I've never heard of needing to write a driver for a web server to host content. Why not use a different, more popular and robust web server software instead of the one you're using? Platforms such as Apache or Nginx are tried & true for good reason, especially a good idea since EspoCRM is recommended on these and that's what you're trying to deploy.

We personally use a LAMP stack; Ubuntu v20, Apache, MySQL, PHP. Plenty of guides out there showing you out to deploy an Apache local server on a Mac OS system too. And as always when building a web server, logs are your best friend!!
