Hi, I'm trying to figure out what can go in ./inc/settings.php
Does anybody have a full list?
(I am aware I probably shouldn't edit the file directly but I'm stuck with an ephermal filesystem...
)
Hi RedGuy13, i can't give you setting.php cuz i have private info on it private key etc..
you can find it in mybb install folder
https://mybb.com/download/
AFAIK settings.php is a cached version of your mybb_settings table. It will regenerate if missing - and update whenever you change your config. So depends on what you have for plugins etc I guess.
Curious about a "ephermal (ephemeral?) filesystem" though. Do you mean cached - like Cloudflare for example?
cheers...

Yes, I meant ephemeral. Basically I can write to files but the changes are reset when nobody has the site open. I do have access to a postgres SQL database that will not reset, however.
I had to write to ./inc/config.php manually, then add the ./install/lock file manually, and now my site is throwing a 500 response code. I assumed it was because of the lack of a settings.php, but maybe not?
I don't think it'll error if it doesn't exist, it'll detect that and load the settings from the database and then try and re-create the file. Sounds like there's something else wrong with the server if files are being reset.

It was errorring because I made a mistake in ./inc/config.php
The server is built to reset the files. It has a ephemeral filesystem, as I explained above.
