auto install not possible

[id47]

Good evening,

I just try to install the portal for second time this afternoon but I'm blocked always at the same step :

There is a PHP install file that needs to be run in order to complete the installation.
To run it point your browser to, for example, domain.tld/phpBB3/install/index.php

When I point my browser to the install folder, I obtain an error 404 :

Not Found

The requested URL /phpbb1/install/install/index.php was not found on this server.

I don't understand why I'm automaticaly redirected to "install/install/index.php" whereas I request "install/index.php".

I confirm i have copy all portal files and modify all files as discribed in installation instructions.
Also I confirm file install/index.php is the FTP.

Do you know what could be origin of error ?

Thanks a lot for your help.
Kind regards.

I think your going too far with the folders...

it should be ( if Im right )

Code: Select all

/domain.com/phpBB3/install/install.php

not

Code: Select all

/domain.com/phpBB3/install/install/install.php

or in your case...

Code: Select all

/phpbb1/install/index.php 

not

Code: Select all

/phpbb1/install/install/index.php

Im wondering if you have added the install folder to another folder first?

I do understand what your saying, but just check exactly where you have dropped the install folder too. It should be in your root.

Hello,

thanks ixl for your reply,

I tried the same installation on my local root (on my computer) and it is working.
So I think that the problem is coming from the root configuration online, perhaps because I'm using domain name and not the full url.

I will do some tests and I come back to you.

Best regards.
