The instructions for entering the address of your Pi are assuming that you go to some other device on your network and configure from there. For example, using a laptop or tablet connected to your local network, open up a browser and enter the address. You'll automatically be taken to RaspberryPints.
If you want to access RaspberryPints directly from the browser on your Pi, type "localhost" into your address bar and you should be directed to 'Pints.
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf
When your post said, "when I enter it into the Raspberry Pi browser" I figured you were trying to do it on the Pi itself.
Yep, with the new version of Apache, it defaults to /var/www/html. The 'Pints install instructions should be updated to reflect that stuff should go to /var/www/html instead of just /var/www. But no one is active from the developer side, so the instructions remain unchanged.
You have two options. Delete the files you imported to /var/www, redo the import and point everything to /var/www/html instead. Or, assuming that your path is this one, run this command and replace /var/www/html with /var/www:
Code:sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf
If your path is different, you'll need to poke around for the default file and point the command there.
I would probably take the first choice and import everything into /var/www/html and make a note somewhere that you changed the path from the instructions. This will make for easier future reinstalls or if you decide to install BrewPi or some other function later on, all will be consistent. But either will work.
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to get past this point of the setup?
chmod 777 setup
chmod 777 jessie-setup
sudo bash ./setup
sudo bash ./jessie-setup
Where the original instructions say to put the display and kiosk commands into /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart, more recent versions of LXDE provide personalized setups, hence you need to use /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart now.
That, of course, assumes the default user is named 'pi'...
Cheers!

Try this location:
/home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart
3) In reading through the strings, it talks about several versions of the Raspberry Pints. I like the additions CaptnDelta added, but I want to make sure I understand how to do the install with those updates. Is the RaspberryPints (2.0.1) at raspberrypints.com the most current?
First I download and start installing the RaspberryPints (2.0.1) and work through all the steps until Step 7. String #1387 on page 139 indicates for step 7:
“instead of downloading from the RPints repository, you use this link: https://github.com/HentschelT/Raspbe.../tree/Version2 and click on "Download Zip". Proceed as usual; just substitute the file name of the downloaded .zip file accordingly in the remaining procedure. Just before you go to Step 8, lets install the pyWebSocket library. This link has the details: https://github.com/google/pywebsocket/wiki”
Then it goes through the rest of the commands.
Day_Tripper, can I plug the 2A into the Alamode and switch the jumper so the Alamode powers the pi2?
There is a Pi2B with heatsinks and a Pi2B desktop. Does it matter which one I get. I returned my Pi B+ so I could get the Pi2B
You basically substitute the regular 2.0.1 version with the file you download from my repository. Don't forget to install the pyWebSocket library at the indicated step. One thing you don't need to do is to install the xdotools stuff (it's no longer used in my version), and you can use any decent browser - remote or local (Chromium is not a requirement). Once installed, you can use Safari on an iPad, or Firefox on Windows etc., just need to use the IP of your Pi as the url.
One thing to remember: If you install Raspbian Jessie, there are a few minor changes (since the original version was created for the older Raspbian Wheezy) - i.e. change the apache web root etc. There is info in this thread how to do that.
Cheers,
