The website is up! It's still a very rough and near featureless version of our project's web portal, but for now it will do.
- Place the faceTracker folder into your '/var/www/html/' directory.
- Open a terminal and enter
sudo touch /etc/apache2/sites-available/faceTracker.conf
- Open the file in an editor with
sudo gedit /etc/apache2/sites-available/faceTracker.conf
- Add this text to the file and save:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName faceTracker
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/faceTracker
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
- Now let Apache know that the site exists:
sudo a2ensite /etc/apache2/sites-available/faceTracker.conf
- Restart the Apache service:
sudo service apache2 restart
- Now add the project to your hosts file: go to
sudo gedit /etc/hosts
and add the line127.0.0.1 faceTracker
- Go to http://faceTracker or localhost/faceTracker and you should see the landing page!
- Go to https://app.box.com/s/4t01n742w1afxne2ywk2gmo1t3etgarl
- Pick the right folder for your operating system
- Copy the bin folder to you where your other folders in var/www/html/faceTracker (This is temporary I believe there is a designated place on servers for executables)
