Hello, I have downloaded the Opigno distribution of Drupal and I think I have everything working except that when I try to go the Home | Administration | Apps I get the error: There was the following error - Manifest: http://www.opigno.org/app/query/opigno Unable to find the socket transport "ssl" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP? I am installing on OpenSUSE 13.1 and I have verified and re-verified that the extension=php_openssl.so and extension=php_sockets.so are both enabled and my phpinfo page shows in the loaded modules that mod_ssl is loaded. Nothing helps. I have done a Google search and found lots of Windows OS users talking about a second php.ini file that was being loaded but I have validated that I have only one php.ini and it is being loaded from the default /etc/php5/apache2 directory. Do you have any possible suggestions on what else might be causing this error? Thanks Craig

Hi,

Hi,

Did you execute the following commands?

a2enmod ssl

a2enflag ssl

 

You can refer to this page for more info: https://www.suse.com/documentation/sles11/book_sle_admin/data/sec_apache2_ssl.html

Suggestion didn't resolve the problem

I ran the suggested commands below is the output: sysname:/home/craig # a2enmod ssl "ssl" already present sysname:/home/craig # a2enflag ssl sysname:/home/craig # systemctl restart apache2.service After the restart of Apache I reload the webpage http://localhost/opigno_lms-7.x-1.15 and login as my administrator user and get the same message when I click on Apps | Installed Apps Craig

That's strange. And do you have some logs in Apache log files ?

The logs location is defined

The logs location is defined in the virtual host config file.

Generally logs are in /var/logs/apache2

You should have 2 logs files for the virtual, one for errors and one for accesses. You may have a look at these 2 files just after producing the error.

I have verified the log

I have verified the log location. I have restarted Apache. Verified that access_log and error_log are created. Open my browser go to the Administration | Apps page in Opigno and I get the error: There was the following error - Manifest: http://www.opigno.org/app/query/opigno Unable to find the socket transport "ssl" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP? I check the error_log - nothing new added I check the access_log - nothing interesting there. No errors. Lots of 304 status messages because images are in the cache already... So I copy the URL out of the message http://www.opigno.org/app/query/opigno and I put that in a new Firefox tab on my Linux server that is generating this error and I get a response (all be it, kind of hard to read) The first bit looks like: {"distro":{"core":"7.x"},"featured app":"opigno_calendar_app","manifest version":1,"apps":[{"name":"Class Quota","description":"\u003Cp\u003EThis application makes possible to manage and control the maximum number of students who can subscribe to a class.\u003C\/p\u003E","machine_name":"opigno_class_quota_app","version":"1.1","downloadable":"opigno_class_quota_app 1.1","author":"Opigno","author_url":"http:\/\/www.opigno.org","dependencies":{"opigno":"opigno 1.0-rc15","opigno_class_app":"opigno_class_app 1.1"},"downloadables":{"opigno_class_quota_app 1.1":"http:\/\/ftp.drupal.org\/files\/projects\/opigno_class_quota_app-7.x-1.1.tar.gz","opigno 1.0-rc15":"http:\/\/ftp.drupal.org\/files\/projects\/opigno-7.x-1.0-rc15.tar.gz","opigno_class_app 1.1":"http:\/ I will admit that I am unable to access my local Opigno site or any other page on my server with https, so for example if I type https://localhost I will get an error. Is this a pre-requisite? Do I need to be able to access my //localhost/opigno/?q=admin/apps/opigno address as https? If so, is there an option in Opigno to allow http access on test machines? Craig

I have now validated and

I have now validated and proven that https is working on my system. Took a lot but finally I can now go to https://mycomputername/opigno/ and successfully load the Opigno page. I can login as Administrator and go to Apps | Opigno Apps | Installed Apps and I still get the socket transport error. Craig
