Issues installing open KB

Open tobidwest opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

I cloned the repostiory https://github.com/mrvautin/openKB.git.

However, I cannot run "npm intall" and "npm start", as we're on shared hosting and I can only access Plesk and ftp. How do I continue?

(Or is there a ready release somewhere, couldn't find one on GitHub.)

Thanks!

No, you cannot install it on that kind of hosting. Get "real" virtual server somewhere and install it there.

Or, deploy it to Heroku.

Get "real" virtual server somewhere

I am trying to set up a knowledge base for our school newspaper. Unfortunately we cannot afford one.

This might not me the best place to ask then, but do you know an alternative I can get to run with only Plesk and ftp access?

Well, afaik Heroku has free tier so I think you still could afford it :)
