My engineer has tried a fresh installation and the result is as follows.
1. After unzip, we get the configuration page.
After entering the new database details, we get the screen shown below:
The Webserver log is here
Note :- Even though it is a NEW installation, still it is referring as an "upgrade". Is there a clue in this?
The Database does not show any tables, as can be seen from the following:
mysql -uprojeqtor727 -pprojeqtor727 projeqtor727

My engineer tried to install a "pure vanilla" version of the V7.3.1 RC, but he gets the same result.
