A small Vagrant box to try out the most recent TYPO3 release

TYPOTry

A smallish (193 MB) Vagrant box to try out the most recent TYPO3 release.

Just run vagrant up and visit:

Flattr this git repo

Requirements

Installation

without git

  • Download the latest TYPOTry zip file
  • Extract the zip file
  • Open a command shell
  • Go into the new directory
  • Run vagrant up

with git

  • Open a command shell
  • Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/Tuurlijk/TYPOTry.git
  • Go into the new directory: cd TYPOTry
  • Start the machine: vagrant up

Now you can visit:

You can login as user admin with the password supersecret.

How do I get onto the box?

You can login by doing a vagrant ssh. That user has full sudo privileges. Or you can ssh vagrant@local.typo3.org using password vagrant.

To add your public ssh key to the authorized_keys file of the vagrant user, you can execute the following command:

 cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh vagrant@local.typo3.org 'cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys'

Now you will be able to get into the box as user vagrant without supplying a password.

MailHog

MailHog runs a super simple SMTP server which catches any message sent to it to display in a web interface. This makes it easy to test forms without actually sending mail to the 'real' mail address. Set your favourite app to deliver to smtp://127.0.0.1:1025 instead of your default SMTP server, then check out http://mail.local.typo3.org to see the mail that's arrived so far.

Can't connect after the vagrant up?

This box needs internet connectivity to resolve the local.typo3.org domain name to the IP of the box. If you are not connected to the Internet you will need to add the following entries to your hosts file:

  • 192.168.144.120 9.1.0.local.typo3.org

Known Problems

  • On Windows machines you may need to enable VT-X in the bios of your machine. vt-x is disabled in the BIOS, you can disable this in the image settings under system tab processor, PAE/NX disable or you can enable this setting in your BIOS. Check: http://www.sysprobs.com/disable-enable-virtualization-technology-bios and check your windows version ( minimal a Pro-edition) or Enable without BIOS.
  • Vagrant may complain about a 'space' character in your path. Ruby can't handle this. You will need to move the Vagrant box to a path without spaces and try again.
