Under what user does the web server run on OS X SERVER Lion (10.7.5) - webserver

Trying to install OwnCloud on my hosted OS X Server 10.7.5.
When running the "web Installer", I can't get past the first step, because "Can't write to the current directory. Please fix this by giving the webserver user write access to the directory"
The problem is, I don't know what the webserver user is. Can you help me find out? I somehow screwed up the web directory permissions, and would like to fix it once and for all.
Thanks for any help you can provide, cheers

Thanks for the responses, and sorry for the newbie question. To close the loop:
#arkascha - Yep. MacMiniColo.net. Why not? Got a mini laying around, just sent it in
#nyarlathotep - Yes. Going through the install now. It turns out the documentation of Owncloud has been updated to address my specific problem, down to the specific CHOWN I need to use.
PROBLEM SOLVED
#nyarlathotep #2 - Running the standard Apache that comes with Lion, Apache 2

What is the best operating system for home server?

Sorry for repeating this question, but wanted to get the latest/updated news in this issue. I am planning on running my own home server so that I can access my files and webpages over the internet. Then I got stuck on the basic problem, which operating system to use. The options that I have in mind are FreeBSD and Ubuntu Server. Both look the same to me as a beginner, but can you guys give me a deep view on what I should choose to run my server on (I am open to other suggestions as well)?
Thank you!
I will suggest you to go with the CentOS, You can easily install/upgrade any packages which you want on your server.

Testlink Test cases location with Wamp server

I had a problem with my WAMP server not being online so after some hours changing values on Httpd.conf i was finally able to make it go online after all, with all of it's services too. But when i try to access localhost it only says "It's working!" and i can't access the testlink webpage. I had already done about 350 test cases manually into testlink so I REALLY want to get that back. I made a backup before the server went down of the entire WAMP directory but i have no idea where the test cases are located. They are not saved as they were named in TestLink. Anyone can show me the way?
thanks!
If when you run localhost and it say "It's working!" then you have another version of Apache installed on this machine, and that is the one that is running and NOT the WAMPServer version of Apache.
As you are obviously learning, stick to one Apache per machine. So uninstall the other Apache completely. It would also be a good idea to look for another MYSQL as well. They travel in groups normally.

Deploying Meteor App to own server

I have a completed meteor project and is currently deployed on the meteor website. I would like to move it to my own website, which is currently hosted by GoDaddy.
How do I install Node and Mongo on my server (linux) and then run my meteor project? I received ssh access to my server, so I assume I can do this, but I'm just not sure how.
So how exactly do I proceed?
Additional Info:
I'm not exactly sure what of linux it is. On GoDaddy, it simply says linux.
When I ssh, it shows me:
-bash-3.2$:
Also, I having my website simply show the myapp.meteor.com webpage would work too. An explanation on how to do this would work.
Discover Meteor has a chapter on deployment which helps to answer this question. For ubuntu-based servers they recommend meteor-up. I haven't used it, but it's probably worth checking out. Previous versions of the book recommended meteoric.
I wrote my own set of bash scripts using a few ideas from meteoric, but I already had a lot of experience doing deployment scripting. Frankly there's nothing quite like figuring it all out yourself, but doing sysadmin tasks doesn't appeal to everyone and it can be hard to pick up in a hurry.

Apache won't start in MAMP Pro

I’ve tried several ways to get MAMP PRO to work for me. The main issue is that Apache keeps conking out, not sure why.
Apache starts when i don’t have any servers other than local. But when i start to create new servers Apache won’t run.
Here is my setup per screen shots:
shot 1: http://kualitydesign.com/css-tricks/mamp-1.png
shot 2: http://kualitydesign.com/css-tricks/mamp-2.png
I’ve googled, but all i’ve been able to find is how to start a new server, which i know how to do when MP starts normally.
What i don’t know how to do is troubleshoot MP when it Apache doesn’t start. Really need to work locally for a new WP build and would love to get this up and running.
If anyone has had this same issue, can spot my error, or has other ways to fix the issue and cares to share, that would rule!
My hunch, and it’s a very noob hunch, is that Apache on MAC is running and it’s conflicting with MP’s apache, if that’s even possible. I just re-call reading that somewhere.
Thank you.

Run CodeSys V2.3 in batch mode

I'm afraid I'm not making much progress on the 3S forums. So you lot are going to get pestered now!
I'm using 3S Codesys v2.3
I'm trying to create a boot project and do sourcecode download on my build server and I'd like to avoid having any hardware plugged into it. I'm using the following command line to run Codesys:
Build.bat:
"C:\Program Files\3S Software\CoDeSys V2.3\Codesys.exe" OptimusPlcFirmware.pro /cmd Build.cmd /batch
Build.cmd:
echo on
online sim off
project rebuild
online bootproject
online sim
online login
online sourcecodedownload
online logout
online sim off
When I do this I get the windows "has encountered a problem and needs to close, with accompanying Send Error Report / Don't Send buttons"
The boot project has been created succesfully and the sourcecode all seems correct. Can anyone explain what's happening?
Thanks
Matt
I run Twincat 2.11 here which is based on CoDeSys 2.3 but may be my idea can be useful. You cannot go Online (Login) until target (your local runtime as well) is in Running mode. Probably your local runtime is in Config mode and thus doesn't accept login and program download. Switch it to Running and try to run your script again.

I've tested with CoDeSys 2.3.9.13 and I have a similar issue. It seems that the problem comes from the online sourcecodedownload command.
I didn't know if it is valid to download the source code in the PLC in simulation mode. It looks strange to me. In any case, even if it's not possible it shouldn't crash.
I hope it helps
