[SOLVED] Logon hangs after installation

Hi, Babynus. I've solved the problem, by combining two things that weren't working separately. Leading from your comments about the error potential for the Softaculous installation script, I attempted to install ProjeQtOr directly. That didn't work because I couldn't get the database instance to work with the manual ProjeQtOr build. The installation menu appeared to work, but the DB wouldn't permit logon.

BUT. Since the Softaculous script automatically creates a unique DB, and sets up a lot of other useful functions (like regular backup, and ability to reset the master password for the app), I did the Softaculous install for ProjeQtOr, then moved all the manually installed ProjeQtOr files in place of the Softaculous-created directory, still using the parameters.php from the Softaculous install.

And that worked. At first logon, ProjeQtOr updated itself to 7.0.1 and logon was fine. I'd like to be more literate in a LAMP environment, and the correct answer would be for me to understand DB permissioning a bit better. But while the approach I took was very brute-force, it was effective and we're now experimenting with ProjeQtOr.

Merci beaucoup!
