There was a problem hiding this comment.
I am not sure where, but as mentioned, when attempting to install on brierfoxforecast.com, the profile page would show an error.
Same was true on local installation.

However, there was a problem on the /profile page upon installation and attempted hosting on kconfs.com/brierfoxforecast.com for unknown reasons.
From @ntoufoudis
What changed:
Running ./SocialPredict without any command, or with an invalid command, will print some basic help message.
Running any valid ./SocialPredict command except install, will check if the .env file is present. If it is not, it will advise to run ./SocialPredict install to initialize the app and then exit.
Running ./SocialPredict install, will force user to perform a clean install. That means it will ask to re-create the .env file, and remove the db files. If user denies any of the above, the script will fail.
The ./SocialPredict install command now accepts some arguments:
For -e acceptable values are development, localhost, production. Running the script with the above arguments, will force re-creation of .env and db files, and is only meant to be used by the ansible deployment procedures. It is not safe for usage by end user.
There has been a lot of refactoring and clean up in the scripts regarding the installation procedure.
