Instalation on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

The current installer is designed to work with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS however with a few minor updates this also works with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS too, simply run the standard installation script (see above), until I’ve had a chance to upgrade the installer please ensure you carry out the following in after to running the standard installer:

1. Create Mycrpt module aliases for PHP:

ln -s /etc/php5/mods-available/mcrypt.ini /etc/php5/cli/conf.d/mcrypt.ini
ln -s /etc/php5/mods-available/mcrypt.ini /etc/php5/fpm/conf.d/mcrypt.ini

2. Update php5-fpm socket location:

nano /etc/turbine/configs/common/laravel4_shared.conf

Then update the fastcgi_pass line to match:

fastcgi_pass                    unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;

3. Lastly restart both Nginx and the PHP-FPM daemons like so:

service nginx restart
service php5-fpm restart

4. All done! - You should then be able to nativate to the Turbine control panel as per normal!
