    Hey,

    I tried to install slickstack for more then 3 times and all the times i get a 403 on WordPress.

    What can be wrong? We don’t use cloudflare

    This happens when the WordPress database doesn’t populate correctly. For security reasons SlickStack blocks requests to /wp-admin/install.php … this means you have to install WordPress via SlickStack commands instead of via your browser.

    Simply running ss-install again should fix this common problem. Or to be more specific you could also run ss-install-wordpress-core instead which is more narrow script.

    sh: 1: /usr/sbin/sendmail: not found
    ERROR 1046 (3D000) at line 1: No database selected

    This is not important.

    sudo bash /var/www/ss-install-wordpress-core

    or

    ss install wp core

    This is the snippet that is not running correctly:

    https://github.com/littlebizzy/slickstack/blob/master/bash/ss-install-wordpress-core.txt#L209

    H. SS-Install-WordPress-Core: Populate Production Database Options (Conditional)

    it’s a known problem.

    you can try to manually run that snippet if nothing else works.

    What about WP-CLI instead

    Yes WP-CLI can populate the WordPress database instead but SlickStack has always tried to default to using our own scripts that are dependency-free.

    If any emergency you can use WP-CLI, because it’s included in SlickStack.

    the script filename has changed, now it’s:

    sudo bash /var/www/ss-install-wordpress-packages

    or ss install wp packages

    or ss install wp core still works!
