Several plugins do not work within VCCW

[cyrialize]

Operating System: Xubuntu 16.04

Several plugins that I am trying to use within VCCW do not work - so far I've found two:
NextGEN Gallery
Huge IT Gallery

For NextGEN it seems like some pages just aren't loading at all. For Huge IT gallery nothing works. I'm not sure this is an issue with VCCW - I suspect I'm possibly missing a configuration that I should have for VCCW, like maybe some directories should have write access. Any suggestions?

I have the same issue, for me with the NextGen Gallery plugin. I get an ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE error (in Google Chrome) on several pages, for example pages with NextGen Gallery albums or even in the admin pages when accessing the settings of the plugin.

I suspect this is a hard crash of PHP but I was not able to debug this yet. I got nothing in the error logs at all. I tried:

• updating to latest vagrant and virtualbox
• using Windows instead of Mac as host
• different browser
• apt-get update && apt-get upgrade inside the guest box
• changing the php.ini settings for debugging and more memory and execution time

no luck so far.

Can you share the error log?

Hi!

steps to reproduce:

• clone vccw repo
• Copy provision/default.yml to site.yml
• vagrant up
• login with admin/admin
• install plugin: NextGEN Gallery
• activate the plugin
• skip the ad notice
• on the top menu bar, go to gallery, gallery settings
• => empty page with ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE

I was able to go generate a stack trace from the crash report. Apparently xdebug is to blame. I got
around the problem by disabling xdebug:

• ssh into the vbox: ssh vagrant@vccw.text
• disable xdebug: sudo phpdismod xdebug
• restart apache sudo service apache2 restart
