Our tutorial is tested and working without a problem. Have you made sure that you’ve followed the instructions correctly?
You can try doing all of the described steps again and be more careful or check the log files for more information about the problem.

I had the same problem with
”startup.js?_dc=3744:764 Uncaught TypeError: pimcore.registerNS is not a function”

the error is in

location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$args;
}

you can change it to

location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;
}

or have a look to the official configuration for nginx/pimcore
https://www.pimcore.org/docs/latest/Installation_and_Upgrade/System_Setup_and_Hosting/Nginx_Configuration.html

GET params where not passed correctly to PHP

Please check the Pimcore log file for more information about the problem.

Visit the official wiki at https://www.pimcore.org/wiki/display/PIMCORE/Logging about Pimcore’s logging.

Thanks.

Hi, thanks for your reply, I managed to install pimcore but right after logging in I get a white screen. Is that a permission issue? the console window shows a javascript error : ”startup.js?_dc=3744:764 Uncaught TypeError: pimcore.registerNS is not a function”

1. Nginx doesn’t support .htaccess files. Use your rules inside Nginx configuration.
2. Use the same reference as defined in /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/your_user.conf

Hi, thanks for your reply. I have one more question if I may, what about the /nginx/conf.d directory, should there be a .htaccess file as well? and does the reference to the php5-fpm socket file have to be “php5-fpm.sock” or “php-fpm.sock” ?

Thanks!

server_name is the domain you’ll be using for your site.
