port issues

[jume-dev]

hey there,
wanted to try this on a virtualbox with port forwarding.
So, the url for accessing ximdex on my host system is:
http://localhost:8080/ximdex

But i can't give the port to the install script. if i type it at the appropriate place, i get an error saying the url is incorrect.
But if i specify it without url, it breaks completely

Any ideas?

Hello, and thank you for try ximdex CMS.

We've tried to install ximdex in the url: http://localhost:8080/ximdexTest and it was succesful.

After you type the url, the installation process try to gets the README.md file under that url. if it doesn't exist the process will return the error message.
Are you trying to install ximdex in a remote server from your host?

Well, as i said the url is valid for my host system, but i excecute the install process on my guest system. thats why it can't find the url there.

Try changing the line 112 in install/script/ximparams.sh: https://github.com/XIMDEX/ximdex/blob/master/install/scripts/ximparams.sh#L112
This line must be:

if [ -n "$XIMDEX_PARAMS_HOST" ]

You can also copy the file from my fork: https://github.com/abarrachina/ximdex/blob/master/install/scripts/ximparams.sh

I did that and the installation process succeded. However, i still couldn't access the site. it trys to load every asset from a strange path like http://localhost/ximdex:8080/ximdex, although i entered the correct one.
Maybe this bug was caused from my installation over and over again. will try it with fresh files again
