There are two main reasons why this guide has been published. I have had to limit mobile bandwidth consumption on 3G connection and to get rid of Git and Ruby issues. Mixing them up with Windows command line is a bit quirky.

Linux and other *nix users should skip it and go with your official guide. I have tested it on a local computer with Fedora 21 Server and it is really easy to reproduce. But on Windows it is not.

And you do not need to change so many firewall settings for cmd.exe, ssh.exe and similar processes. Using web-based OpenShift tools is also much easier for beginners.

We have prepared a new guide for users with rhc and git tools.

I hope it can be used by those who only installed PHP forum scripts.

XD don't worry, I concede. I'm not sure the plugin ever made it onto npm either, the plugin system was that new that you had to install it via git only.

@taste Did you start your forum up again?

Edit: I restarted it for you 😄
