Hello everyone !
The configuration of a CMS like WordPress can sometimes present a challenge on certain systems.
On OmniOSCE, the communication between Apache and PHP differs from OpenIndiana.
While OpenIndiana has an apache-php8X package, things need to be done manually on OmniOS.
This can pose a challenge for administrators who are not accustomed to handling php-fpm.
Here is how to do.
And it's not so hard !
The following procedure is designed to be fully copied/pasted directly into a terminal (via SSH for example) for the purpose of quickly testing WordPress on OmniOS.
Naturally, much more work will be needed for a production deployment !
You need to be root all the time for this tutorial
First, update your system

# 0) PREPARE YOUR SYSTEM

# Update
#---------------------------------------------------#
pkg update
# If you are french, then you need to set time !
# pkg install ntpsec && /usr/bin/ntpdate 0.fr.pool.ntp.org && date && svcadm enable svc:/network/ntp:default
# Reboot if necessary
#---------------------------------------------------#
reboot
Then we start :

From another computer on the same network, you can now access the wordpress site.
Don't forget to add a mapping between your server's IP and the site name we just created (wordpress.lan) in your hosts file on your client computer before attempting to access the site via your web browser (http : / / wordpress . lan).
A few other commands to know :
Check is Apache is running :
svcs svc:/network/http:apache24
Restart Apache :
(I suggest you not to you use svcadm restart option.. it sometimes restart badly with apache whereas the configuration is perfect.. I don't know why).
svcadm disable svc:/network/http:apache24 && sleep 5 && svcadm enable svc:/network/http:apache24
Get the apache service log location :
svcs -xv
Look into the log
cat /var/svc/log/network-http:apache24.log
Check the log of our wordpress site :
cat /opt/ooce/apache-2.4/logs/wordpress-error_log
Find the complete name of each service
svcs -a | grep php
svcs -a | grep apache
Check the syntax of your apache configuration
/opt/ooce/apache-2.4/bin/apachectl configtest
Good Luck Everyone !
