I am looking to set up a Bedrock site in local by Flywheel. My client’s old site was built in Bedrock and they would like me to host it for them again and make changes using the files their old developer has sent me. I have no idea how to do this, I have tried to follow guides but keep getting stu…

Hey Chedercon, welcome to the forums! Although I haven’t setup a bedrock site personally, I can assist you with some of the steps in this guide. The current step you are hung up on looks to be the section titled “Install Bedrock” shown below: [Screen Shot 2020-01-16 at 1.24.52 AM] The step readi…

UPDATE!!: I have found the location in terminal i just formated it the wrong way. When i type the next command it says command not found. [Screenshot 2020-01-16_10-42-40-602] composer create-project roots/bedrock

Awesome! And thank you for the screenshot. Based on the screenshot it looks like you will need to change directory into the /app location, you can do that by running: cd Local\ Sites/jellyactrics/app cd = change directory Once this is done the Customerpluss-iMac:~ customerplus$ will update to…

[image] chedercon: composer create-project roots/bedrock Thanks again! So I seem to be able to change the location but when I type the composer create-project roots/bedrock command it says command not found. So I looked up ‘Compose’ and installed it via their instruction. [Screenshot 2020…

In order for composer to be accessible at any time, you’ll need to install it globally. See https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md#globally You’re 95% of the way there, you just need to move the composer.phar file to /usr/local/bin/composer :smiley:

I think I have installed it globally as per the guide given. I then located to the folder (cd Local\ Sites/jellyactrics/app) and then tried the command as requested above (composer create-project roots/bedrock) and still said ‘command not found’. Although I can not find a folder as described ‘/usr…

I am happy to keep trying your suggestions but i am conscious i am wasting your time. If you/anyone can help get this site up a running just so i can take a normal wordpress backup of the site so i can host it with my normal flywheel account i would be very grateful as i can not find any other supp…

[image] chedercon: I am happy to keep trying your suggestions but i am conscious i am wasting your time. Not a problem at all! There may also be other readers who find value from this as well :slight_smile: Based on your screenshot above, I don’t see the mv command to move the Composer.phar…

When you say [image] clay: run the first two commands Do you mean these to steps? (see attached) [Screenshot 2020-01-17_15-58-52-278] Because when I try the second step: php composer-setup.php --install-dir=bin this does nothing. I fully appreciate your support but i am really losing pat…

Just an FYI. It’s really much simpler to install many of these commands via Homebrew, https://brew.sh Then brew install composer
