Published mercurial repos - links return 404 - mercurial

I am able to publish the list of repositories using hgwebdir.cgi on Tomcat. However none of the links on the published repository work. What should the baseurl be set to? I set it to http://host:port/folder where the cgi-bin is right under the folder. The urls dont form correctly (dont have the hgwebdir.cgi in them) and i have no url rewriting setup. Is there some Tomcat configuration needed to get the urls working?

as far as I know hgwebdir.cgi should be installed via an HTTP Web server like Apache.
It is not possible to run it under Tomcat: for this reason it is not working.
install an apache web server (try XAMPP if you are running under windows)
Install a python interpreter
Put the hgwebdir.cgi under the CGI dir of your apache web server.
Configure the hgwebdir.cgi so it can find python on PATH
You can find more information on the mercurial book http://hgbook.red-bean.com/read/

GitHub Actions checkout#v3: where is repo downloaded?

I am working with GitHub Actions to build code on Windows, Linux, and MacOS. I use actions/commit#v3 #actions/checkout#v3 to download my repo to each server. However, I do not know where the repo gets downloaded. I have to curl other files and add them to the repo folder for the build to work.
Does anyone know where repos are downloaded on each server (Windows, Linux, and MacOS) with actions/commit#v3 #actions/checkout#v3? I'm having trouble finding anything in the documentation. If the path is set in an environment variable, I would prefer to use that instead of hard coding the path for each server.
The environment variable you're looking for is GITHUB_WORKSPACE.
The default working directory on the runner for steps, and the default location of your repository when using the checkout action. For example, /home/runner/work/my-repo-name/my-repo-name.

How do I get jekyll to run without server?

In order for me to view the site, it looks like I need to run bundle exec jekyll serve and open the server address in my web browser.
How do I go about having the viewing the site without running the command. I've went into the _site and clicked on the index.html file without running the server and noticed this.
Do you have any suggestions on how to go about this? There is no styling and none of the links works.
Is it possible to just place the .md file in posts folder and be able to view it without having to run a server still styled?
Any help would be appreciated.
You can build your static files using bundle exec jekyll build, then all your files will be in _site.
Now you need a server to serve theses static files. You can install something like nginx or apache.
Once it's done you'll want to copy your static files that are inside _site under /var/www/html/ and make sure your server is started with a command like:
sudo service nginx start

PhpStorm - Configuring deployment remote server for debug

I want to debug in a remote server, which is, by the way, a Vagrant machine. Not really a remote server, but this has a peculiar setup: the shared host/vagrant machine folder isn't related to the web server files.
The server is configured with Zend Framework.
I have, locally, to deploy to the machine the following folders (as Zend Framework structure):
/home/user/webStuff/web
Inside web: config, data, module, vendor and public folders
Inside public folder I have the index.php, which handles all server requests.
Following is the server deployment configuration:
When I press "Test SFTP Connection" everything is fine. When I press "Open", the website opens.
And here, is the "Mappings" tab on the deployment configuration
Everything seems OK, here. At least from my point of view.
But when I test the settings, in Run -> WebServer Debug Validation, it gives me "Failed to collect files: Invalid relative file name". I've tried more settings, like placing /web/public in Web path, but with no success.
In Settings -> Languages & Frameworks -> PHP I have a good configuration for the server vagrantmachine.com, with XDebug version correctly displayed.
Also, I've placed the following in xdebug.ini:
xdebug.remote_connect_back = 1
xdebug.remote_enable=1
I've searched and tried a lot, but with no success.
I'm no specialist in these server configuration things, but if you need any information, just ask.
"Deployment path on server" and "Root Path" were wrong.
Like #Eugene Morozov said, I changed the root path to "/opt/webStuff" and deployment path to "/" and it worked out.

For PyCharm/WebStorm my IDE's local server is not detecting other directories

When I select a html file to open "in browser" in Webstorm it works and it opens under the localhost. The issue I'm having is that this webstorm internal server is not detecting any of the other paths in my project root like images and javascript files.
I should note that this feature has worked before on other projects I started from scratch using "new project." The difference with this project is that I opened a directory as a project.
The built-in webserver serves files from http://localhost:<built-in server port>/<project root>. Forward slashes in URLs tell the browser to resolve them relative to the web server root (localhost:63342 in your case), causing 404 errors.
If you like to change the default web path on built-in web server, you have to re-configure the server by editing your system hosts file accordingly - see http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-8988#comment=27-577559.

Subdirectories in openshift project cannot be found

I built a site using a php openshift project and accessing the root directory via http works fine. However, all the root directories give me a 404 not found, like this one: http://test.toppagedesign.com/sites/
I checked with ssh, and /app-root/repo/sites and app-deployments/current/repo/sites/ both exist.
EDIT
Added a directory called php and now I have 503 errors for everything...
EDIT 2
I deleted the php directory, now the 503 errors are gone. However, I do still get 404 errors for the subdirectory.
Here is my directory tree: http://pastebin.com/hzPCsCua
And I do use git to deploy my project.
php is one of the alternate document roots that you can use, please see the March Release blog post here about this (https://www.openshift.com/blogs/openshift-online-march-2014-release-blog)
As for the sub-directories not working, can you ssh into your server and use the "tree" command to post the directory/file structure of your project? Also are you using Git to deploy your project or editing files directly on the server?
You need to have an index.php or index.html file in any directory that you want to work like app-domain.rhcloud.com/sites , if you just have sub-directories, how would it know what to show? Also, indexing (showing a folders contents) is not enabled for security reasons, and I believe there is no way to enable it.
This sounds like it could be a problem with how you are serving your static content.
I recently created a new sample app for OpenShift that includes:
a basic static folder
an .htaccess file (for serving assets in production)
support for using php's local server to handle the static content (in your dev environments)
Composer and Silex - a great starting point for most new PHP apps
You can serve the project locally if you have PHP-5.4 (or better), available in your dev environment:
php -S localhost:8080 -t static app.php
For a more advanced project that is built on the same foundation, take a look at this PHP+MongoDB mapping example. I wrote up a blog post with some notes on my process for composing that app as well.
Hope these examples help!
