Clean installation, after successful installation, deleting install directory redirect to login page shows error message: "Cannot connect to database". Database and all tables are created - phpMyAdmin shows it and it looks like at create phase all was really successful.

I checked SVN and at last revision 447 the same error.

Clean install version 0.803 goes without any errors and problems.

madlyr:Upgrade from 0.803 to 0.8094 rev 447 goes well

4 years ago (2. update 4 years ago)

As in the title - upgrade (at least to last SVN revision) goes without any problems.

pixtur:Very good report...

Is the db_settings-file been created?


madlyr:I'll check in 1-3 following days

I'm not shure - I don't remeber. I think it was that file... I'll check RC1 and try RC2 on clean install.

Can you try the following:
  1. Clear Browser-cache and reload
  2. Did this occur after install or upgrade?
