Setup Bol.com Integration in Magento 2 via FTP

On this page, you will learn how to install and configure the Bol.com Integration extension for Magento 2 using FTP and SSH. This guide will provide you with detailed steps to ensure that your installation is successful and that the extension functions as intended.

We will cover the prerequisites for installation, the necessary commands for FTP and SSH, and how to verify that the extension is correctly set up.

By the end of this guide, you will have the capability to seamlessly connect your Magento store to Bol.com, enabling automated product synchronization, real-time inventory updates, and efficient order management, ensuring accurate data flow between both platforms and improving overall marketplace performance.

Preparation Installing Extension via FTP

If possible, we advise installing the module via Composer, as this is the most efficient and reliable method. Composer makes updates significantly easier to manage and ensures your store always uses the correct, versioned dependencies.

Before making changes to your store, please ensure the following:

  • Ensure you have a full backup (files + database).
  • Run the installation in a development or staging environment first.
  • (Production only) Enable maintenance mode to prevent visitors from seeing errors:
php bin/magento maintenance:enable

Upload Extension Files

Download the Bol.com Integration extension package (.zip) file from your Magmodules dashboard under "My Downloads" and follow the installation steps outlined below.

The ZIP file contains the necessary files that must be placed inside the Magmodules/Bol folder. Note: The directory structure is case-sensitive and must be created manually. Follow the steps below to extract and upload the files correctly.

1. Extract the Extension Files

Unzip the extension package using a tool like WinZip, WinRAR, or a similar extraction program.

2. Upload the Unzipped Extension Files

Since the extracted files contain only the extension content, you must manually create the Magmodules/Bol folder inside app/code/ on your server and place all extracted files into this final Magmodules/Bol folder.

The final directory path for the uploaded content will be:

app/code/Magmodules/Bol

If you are updating an existing installation of one of our extensions, ensure that you overwrite the existing extension files.

Run Setup Commands in the Terminal

Open the terminal and run the following command, then enter the user password. (Skip this step if you're installing the expansion on a local machine):

ssh username@domain.com

Locate The Root
Navigate to the Magento 2 web root directory by executing this command:

cd /full_path_to_magento2

Examples of typical Magento roots:

  • /var/www/html
  • /home/username/public_html
  • /var/www/magento2

Start Setup
Once the extension has been successfully downloaded, initiate the setup of the Bol.com Integration extension using the following commands:

php bin/magento module:enable Magmodules_Bol
php bin/magento setup:upgrade

This registers the module and processes database changes.

If Magento is in production mode, you’ll need to recompile and deploy static content by running:

php bin/magento setup:di:compile
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f

After executing these commands, the extension is installed and ready for configuration. To configure it, go to **Stores > Configuration > Magmodules > Bol.com Integration **.

If you have used the maintenance mode, make sure to disable this; otherwise, Magento frontend returns a 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable error:

php bin/magento maintenance:disable

Start Using the Extension

Once the installation is complete, the extension is successfully installed in your Magento® 2 store and ready to use.

Navigate to **Stores > Configuration > Magmodules > Bol.com Integration ** to configure and start using the extension.

Troubleshooting FTP/SSH installation

Module files not visible after upload

Cause: Incorrect folder structure or wrong upload location.

Solution:

  1. Verify that the files have been uploaded to the correct directory.
  2. Check that the folder structure is correct (use ls -la app/code/Magmodules/ to verify).
  3. Ensure that the registration.php and module.xml files are present in the module directory.

Permission Denied errors

Cause: Incorrect file permissions after FTP upload.

Solution:

Set the correct owner and permissions:

chown -R www-data:www-data app/code/Magmodules/
find app/code/Magmodules/ -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
find app/code/Magmodules/ -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;

Replace www-data with the user your web server runs as (could also be apache, nginx, or another user).


SSH connection failed

Cause: Incorrect credentials, blocked port, or SSH not enabled.

Solution:

  1. Check your username and domain name.
  2. Try the default SSH port (22) or a custom port:
ssh -p 2222 username@domain.com
  1. Contact your hosting provider to verify that SSH access is enabled.

503 Service Temporarily Unavailable after installation

Cause: Maintenance mode still active.

Solution:

Disable maintenance mode:

php bin/magento maintenance:disable

Or manually remove the maintenance file:

rm var/.maintenance.flag

Memory Limit errors during compilation

Cause: PHP memory limit set too low.

Solution:

Temporarily increase memory limit:

php -d memory_limit=2G bin/magento setup:di:compile

Or permanently update php.ini:

memory_limit = 2G

Still having issues?

If you continue to experience problems:

  1. Check the Magento error logs: var/log/system.log and var/log/exception.log.
  2. Verify that all prerequisites are met (PHP version, required extensions, file permissions).
  3. Check that all module files have been uploaded correctly (compare with the original zip file).
  4. Contact Magmodules Support and provide:
    • Your Magento version
    • PHP version
    • Installation method (FTP/SSH)
    • Complete error messages
    • Steps you've already tried

To evaluate a provider, it is not enough to consider only the product offered, but also its after-sales service, such as support and troubleshooting. Magmodules has been extremely satisfactory at all levels on multiple occasions and sets the bar at the top when comparing the competition.

Magmodules biedt plugins aan die van hoge kwaliteit zijn tegen een goede prijs, waar dit bedrijf in uitblinkt is de bereidheid om de zeldzame feedback & problemen met de plugins te willen onderzoeken, mee te willen denken in het debuggen van problemen en goede oplossingen toe te passen. In mijn decennium ervaring met Magento & 3th parties is Magmodules absoluut een uniqum binnen de markt.

Uitstekende support! Wij gebruiken o.a. de Rich Snippets Suite extensie voor onze Magento 2 webshop (Hyvä) en hadden een specifieke vraag over structured data op PLP-pagina’s. Binnen no-time kregen we een inhoudelijk en duidelijk antwoord. Zeer prettig contact en goed onderbouwde uitleg. Absoluut een betrouwbare partner voor Magento-extensies!
