Troubleshooting installation

Make sure your environment match the requirements and no necessary steps described in this help were skipped or misconfigured.

Check app and environment config files and error logs:

• Apache httpd.conf - C:\Apache24\conf\httpd.conf
• Apache error logs - C:\Apache24\logs\error.log - documentation
• PHP ini - C:\php\php.ini
• Edjet LMS config - "/var/www/html/config/cfg.ini.php" | C:\Apache24\htdocs\config\cfg.ini.php
  • Variable "platform" must match your platform (1 = Linux, 2 = Windows)

Alternative to error log inspection is to turn PHP error messages on in php.ini using "display_errors = On" directive. Please do not use this in production when application is live, as the output will show to the users and can even break the app to the users.

If installation fails and you want to try again, drop the database schema and all installation files from installation folder.

If installation is not able to write/update on whole folder and all installation files, the installation will fail. See how to change permissions for Linux above.
