Pages missing, app store link failing, No PRO app (all are paid, some free) : WTF ?
Hey,
I'm new with UNA. The installation was not so easy on Debian as the doc is missing few things, but I succeeded in installing UNA CMS on my AWS Lightsail VPS.
But now, first steps and ... WTF ? Lot of pages are missing (about, profile, ..) , I get 400 errors or I'm redirected to una site. I don't know how to find the "Pro apps", in the App Store when I click on any of the categories in the sidebar I get an error "the redirect URI provided is missing or does not match" and i'm redirected to UNA web site :
So.. how to start effectively ? I can't even create a new profile, I get a 404 error page when trying to create new profile (account-profile-switcher page does not exist !..). Here after some screenshots :
Not sure hat to do with that, honestly.

Even the signout page does not exist ... :D :D :D

Hello @Christophe HAMERLIK !
Welcome to aboard!
Both mentioned problems are known:
1) "the redirect URI provided is missing or does not match" problem means that you missed this step around the installation process (described in this doc https://unacms.com/wiki/installation-overview):
- UNA Key and Secret
- These are required for updates and app installations
- Obtain them from your UNA account
- If you don't have them, click the "Get UNA Key and Secret" link
2) the 404 error (page not found) means the existence of 2 possible problems:
a) your installed UNA package doesn't have the default .htaccess file in the root (can be taken from here https://github.com/unacms/una/blob/master/.htaccess)
b) your hosting doesn't have the enabled or working modrewrite Apache module. So if the point a is fine then your need to ask your hosting support about it.
BTW - could you please specify which points are missing here:

Hello @LeonidS ,
I strictly followed the install procedure for Ubuntu / Debian.. The .htaccess thing is not described, you could add a note in case it's the issue.
I didn't missed the step for the keys.
The main problem of the install procedure is probably that the wget command to get the UNA zip is not working, the url doesn't work. I had to download it on my pc, setup filezilla to send it to my vps, the unzip and so on.
So yes, I think a quick update of the install procedure would worth it for users installing UNA on Linux vps.
Also : how to access the Pro apps? I didn't see any shortcut for this app. And as said, in the app store, I can't select a apps category as I get an error.
I bought a 3 domains licence, but I've refunded 2 of them and keep one for trying again. TBH, a demo instance would be useful to have an idea of what we will really get. UNA is probably powerful but the first steps are not always user friendly (for me), we fell a bit lost everywhere.
Thank you,
Christophe HK

Yes, we have the following lines about .htaccess, but in the Standard installation section on the same page https://unacms.com/wiki/installation-overview :
Important Notes:
- Ensure the
.htaccessfile is included in the upload (it may be hidden on some systems)
About other issues (wget and Pro apps deals) please PM me with your UNA Studio access via Messenger.

Thank you Leonid.
I have installed the .htaccess file, from github, with chmod 755. And now indeed, much better. I also can see and install all Pro Apps, so I believe the issue with App Store and Pro Apps was also linked to this missing htaccess file.
To be transparent, I didn't read all install documentation when I noticed there was a dedicated install procedure for Ubuntu/Debian. So this is my entire fault, even if I think you could add few words or a link to the htaccess file for others like me who don't read the entire doc 😏
I'll send you the error message about the retrieval of UNA.zip using wget. If I remember well I get a "file not found" error.
If I may, there's a new search filter that could help a bit about Pro Apps. For me, Pro Apps were all apps from the App Store, but now I understand that they are available via the App Store, with other paid or free community apps. That's fine, but a "UNA apps" filter would help to list only your Pro Apps (the Pro apps and module made by UNA team).
All the best,
Chris

Glad to hear that you resovled this problem :-) but the chmod for the file is better set as 644. About doc - we'll think how to place back link better. About Pro Apps - well, the author of the mod is easy noticable in any apps lists so guess it isn't such necessary feature.
Thnx, waiting for your message about wget.

Hello @LeonidS ,
Thanks for your feedback (good point setting 644 for .htaccess, right!) and sorry for the delay providing details on the wget error. Here it is :
# Doc :
# Exec :
The path for the latest version of the UNA archive can't be resolved. That's why I had to retrieve the archive from the github repository.
Should I need to provide any other information and run any other command, please let me know,
Chris
