Im trying to use R Pi 2 as web server for a simple system created using CodeIgniter. I was able to install LAMP, php7, mysql, phpmyadmin. Localhost shows the installation was successful. I tried to copy the CI app to /var/www/html through Filezilla but the nothing is transferred after a long series of error messages. I also tried to manually create a folder inside /var/www/html through Filezilla but the mkdir operation is denied. How should I go about this? Should I copy the entire CI app to /var/www/html or should it be somewhere else. I've been searching for videos/tutorials regarding installation of CI app in R Pi but still unlucky to find one. Is it really possible to use R Pi to host an app created using Codeigniter? I hope someone who has done this before can offer help. Thanks in advance.
You may have additional problems, but first in line seems to be that you need to use sudo to write into directories under /var/www unless you've made modifications to the permission or to the groups that your user is in. So, for example, sudo mkdir /var/www/test/.
