Error while installing Mysql on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on updated project that was working on Ubuntu 16 LTS

This project had the old version of Trellis that was working with with Ubuntu 16 LTS. In order to work with the new server Ubuntu 18 LTS, I’ve copied all updates files from the new version of Trellis and Bedrock and replaced, skipping the configuration files such as wordpress_sites.yml, vault.yml and hosts folder. Also skipped app folder in “site/web/app” folder.

Any ideas?

I tried to run the command (apt-get install mariadb-client) while logged in the server and it is showing this:

Weird. Any chance you could try on a completely new Trellis install to make sure all the right files are there?

Which VPS provider are you trying this on?

I’m using Digital Ocean. I tried to create a new project and change the configuration file such as wordpress_sites.yml, vault.yml and hosts folder and now I’m getting a new error :grimacing::

ERROR! the role 'swapfile' was not found in /Users/alysonsm/Documents/Projects/test/trellis/roles:/Users/alysonsm/Documents/Projects/test/trellis/vendor/roles:/Users/alysonsm/Documents/Projects/test/trellis

The error appears to have been in '/Users/alysonsm/Documents/Projects/test/trellis/server.yml': line 24, column 7, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.

The offending line appears to be:

    - { role: common, tags: [common] }
    - { role: swapfile, swapfile_size: 1GB, swapfile_file: /swapfile, tags: [swapfile] }
      ^ here

Additional Information:
I noticed that the vendor folder is not in trellis folder.

Hey Man, Thanks for your response.

I figured what was the problem. The droplet created has a LAMP stack on it. I solved the problem destroying the droplet and creating a new one with nothing installed. I’m getting a letsencrypt error but I guess there is another thread that talks about that.

I am seeing a similar issue when deploying FROM a ubuntu docker (running 18.04) to make the deployment. If I deploy FROM my MacOS box it works fine… some more context.

The docker I am using is statenweb/trellis-deploy and the tag is 3.0.0 – i just rebuilt the docker to run 18.04 thinking that may fix it but it did not. Dockerhub link: https://hub.docker.com/r/statenweb/trellis-deploy/tags

Run composer install is a custom ta

This one may be on me, hang tight.

safely ignore, my docker image didn’t have composer on it. this theme required running composer on the theme itself because of libraries. latest docker straightened it out (3.0.1) – hopefully will have a tutorial on using a docker to deploy for CI/CD :slight_smile:
