please help how tofix this i try to create wordpress command
sudo ee site create site --type=wp
The error message is your clue here.
Cannot create/start proxy container. Please make sure port 80 and 443 are free
You have some other service running on port 80 and/or 443, most probably Apache or Nginx. If you’re not too comfortable finding and killing those services, then I suggest you start with a fresh VM.
i dont know what to do what is the perfect combination of code to fix this problem please help
when i to try to back to v3,8 and create again a wordpress it say unable to create symbollic link
There is no perfect combination of code to fix this as we don’t know what you did. You can start here - https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/106561/finding-the-pid-of-the-process-using-a-specific-port
But mind you, if you want to go down this rabbit hole, you’ll have to do a lot of google search and then a lot of trial and error.
If you’re not comfortable doing that, I’ll suggest you start with a fresh OS install.
Hey there,
You first have to figure out what’s using port 80 and 443. Run the following command to check:
lsof -i :80 | grep LISTEN
Replace :80
with :443
as well. You’ll see what process is using those ports. More than likely its Apache.
Is EE being installed on a fresh server?
Do not install nginx before running EasyEngine.
- Here is the roadmap:
- Create your VPS instance (Lightsail, Digital Ocean, etc.)
- Connect SSH to instance
- Update: sudo apt-get update (do not: sudo apt-get install nginx because this will use port 80)
- Running EasyEngine
Fix it and drink a coffee
