Google Cloud Bitnami Magento 2.0.6 stack

Question

Magento 2.0.6
Bitnami stack
Google compute Instance.

So after going up and down through all support for Bitnami Magento stack on the web, I decided I am the only one with this issue.

So I had my site running flawlessly with the Stack 2.0.6 given by Bitnami through the Cloud Launcher then I added an extension to setup the outgoing emails. And now I am unable to access my website using the domain name. If I enter my Domain name on any browser or computer it takes me to "Apache2 Debian Default Page" if I add /index.php to my Domain name it takes me to a semi loaded version of my Magento store . If I attempt to go to domain/admin it tells me, basically a 503 error .

There has been an error processing your request

So then I went through all my folders on the cloud and tried finding that index.html it loads with just the domain name and deleting them. After finding and deleting them it still loads the " Apache2 Debian Default Page ". Very frustrating. So I decided to take a break then come back and thought maybe somehow the conf files are telling it to only open index.html first. So I went through all the configs and nothing is directing it that way.. so it seems everything loads correctly in the cloud instance no errors on the back end starting or restarting Bitnami script just the front end is broken somehow apache2 isn't reaching the Magento folder correctly.

Then I decided, well if all else fails I will start a new Cloud instance with the new 2.0.7 Magento Bitnami . Wrong instantly upon setup it directs the domain straight to "Apache2 Debian Default Page" except if add /admin to the fresh instance loads the backend and only loads the front end if I manually add /index.php to the domain name .

Am I missing something?

Answer 1

it has configuration in

/opt/bitnami/apps/magento/conf/

make sure to make changes in that you can change DirectoryIndex index.php in htaccess.conf

after that you can restart the apache by

service bitnami restart apache
