Installion resets itself on IIS
Increasing max_execution_time did not work for me. Continues to loop, no errors, no indication what could possibly be the problem.

Re: Installion resets itself
Maybe other php settings you haven't considered?
- upload_max_filesize (try at least 20M)
- post_max_size (try at least 20M)
- memory_limit (try at least 128M).

Re: Installion resets itself
Nope, I've considered and increased them all. I have all green status on third step and it still loops with multiple browsers.

It could be a 'Ownership' issue depending on the stack you use.

Re: Installion resets itself
Care to elaborate. Are you referring to a permissions issue, as in file ownership?
I'm not sure what FPA has to do with my post, as I don't have a working site yet. Did you make a mistake on your link?
Again my stack is:
Server 2016, SQL Express 2016, PHP7
All green on install, no errors reported by php. I think Joomla is not compatible with this stack. Perhaps the upcoming release will be.

Are you using MS SQL Server and not MySQL?
You are in the wrong forum for installing joomla on an IIS Web Server.

Re: Installion resets itself
If you dont understand the explantion in the fpa thread then I doubt I could explain it in a way that you understand. Perhaps ask your parents or a teacher what it means bymckinnonk wrote:Care to elaborate. ...
The Forum Post Assistant (FPA) script has been developed to assist forum posters to be able to post relevant system, instance, PHP and troubleshooting information directly in to a pre-formatted forum post. This will save a few hours of posting back and forth, asking for, and explaining how to acquire useful information in order for other forum users to help troubleshoot a problem.
This process also means that consistent information is gathered and presented in every case, enabling helpers to quickly target information relevant to the specific problem observed by the user.

Re: Installion resets itself
I'm an IT founder with 30 years of experience, I know what FPA is and it has no bearing on my situation. Your very insulting to assume that I need ask a teacher, as I've been mentoring IT Experts for longer than you've been alive, most likely.
Although my experience with PHP is somewhat limited as I'm mostly in IT Management and don't dig in much.

Yes, I should have posted there. However, it's not an IIS problem.Per Yngve Berg wrote:Are you using MS SQL Server and not MySQL?

Re: Installion resets itself
If you knew what the problem was then you wouldn't need to post on here for help. Without you running the fpa and posting the results on here then those who are trying to help you will not be able to know if it shows a configuration error.mckinnonk wrote:I'm an IT founder with 30 years of experience, I know what FPA is and it has no bearing on my situation. ...
The fpa often shows the php errors which in turn helps locate the source of the problemmckinnonk wrote:Although my experience with PHP is somewhat limited as I'm mostly in IT Management and don't dig in much
Joomla installs successfully on many server configurations therefore it is reasonable to conclude that the problem is with the server not being configured in a way that suits the installation.mckinnonk wrote:Yes, I should have posted there. However, it's not an IIS problem.

Re: Installion resets itself
It's reasonable, but not always the case. Most people using php use mysql and apache. I'm using the newest Windows server, with the newest Microsoft SQL, and almost the newest PHP. It's reasonable that Joomla is buggy in this environment, since few people use this configuation.Joomla installs successfully on many server configurations therefore it is reasonable to conclude that the problem is with the server not being configured in a way that suits the installation.
I have attached my FPA results, which will not help in my situation.

Did you have difficulty understanding the instructions on how to generate the fpa output in a format for the forum ?
Anyway from the html of the fpa page you attached
looks like the problem. If it is then get ready for a big 'told you so 8 posts ago'Doc Root: E:/Joomla
Server Temp: C:\Windows\TEMP
Server Temp Writable: No

It could be a 'Ownership' issue depending on the stack you use.
Addendum
might also cause problems.Session Path Writable: No

Do you have difficulty providing support without being insulting? Your passive aggressiveness can cause many people to stop posting or not post at all. It's really turning me off of trying Joomla.
No, I chose to attach it. I hate long posts of code; attaching makes more sense. Also, I remote into my work computer and save the output in dropbox.Did you have difficulty understanding the instructions on how to generate the fpa output in a format for the forum ?

Re: Installion resets itself
It is easier to read the output in the forum ... if you cant be bothered to copy/paste the (fpa) generated output then I cant be bothered to download and unpack attached files.mckinnonk wrote:...

No. I just choose to highlight your arrogance and your inability to help yourself. It took numerous posts to get you to run the fpa and even then you choose to be stubborn and refuse to post the results in a format which is readable directly in the thread. All those extra posts to discover a simple mistake in your server setup. Your uncooperative nature makes it difficult for others to help you. I wish you luck finding someone prepared to give their time helping you find other problems with your server setup.mckinnonk wrote:...
