I just got it running on a droplet. I chose lamp 14.04 (ubuntu) so that I didn't have to mess with setting up apache and all by hand. After droplet creation, I logged into the console with the browser based vnc and used wget to grab the 64bit version of lc server 7.0.4 then.. apt-get install unzip so that I could unzip the file
unzip <lc server filename> to expand the contents. chmod 755 livecode-community-server to make it executable then mv livecode-community-server /usr/lib/cgi-bin mv externals /usr/lib/cgi-bin mv drivers /usr/lib/cgi-bin to move the files to the correct location (I could hvae unzipped them there) Then.. a2enmod actions a2enmod cgi to enabled the actions and cgi mods Then the following.. cd /etc/apache2/sites-enabled nano 000-default.conf in the editor I added the 2 required lines as follows right before the end </virtualhost> line Action lc-script /cgi-bin/livecode-community-server AddHandler lc-script .lc I did NOT uncomment the line that says to include the serve-cgi-bin.conf ctrl-x yes to save, enter to keep the file name (make sure you don't change it) then service apache2 restart You may get a message on restart about not being able to reliably determine the servers domain name, depending on how things are currently set up. After restart, I created a simple file /var/www/html/test.lc and put in it <?lc put random(542545) ?> Then I went to the droplets ip.. http://104.236.131.29/test.lc and voila' it works.
