Installation Error J4 Azure
Hey There,
I am currently attempting to install Joomla 4 in Azure App Service leveraging an Azure for MySQL database. As some background information, the setup is behind a virtual network, and I have confirmed that the app instance can reach the database. Also, the app instance is running Linux. After extracting the files in the app instance I attempted to install Joomla 4 through the web. During the process I either get two errors:
* The security token did not match
* The installation process failed
All credentials are correct for the database and other fields. I have also tried modifying the php.ini file, configuring-dist.php, and also nginx. I am not sure what else can be the issue.I have also tried extracting Joomla using Filezilla with no luck. After doing research, I came across it possibly being either a db issue or cookie. As mentioned, I have confirmed that the instance can access and write to the database. Anu thoughts?

Hey there,
So I have done the steps in the Joomla Installation and NGINX config as well. I attempted to use the FPA file however I run into some issues. I either get a 404 error or when it does work, it states that the file has been there for too long and will be deleted. Im not sure what else I can do to make it work.

The following topic shows what to do if the file fpa-en.php deletes itself automatically:

Re: Installation Error J4 Azure
Hello,
So I still encounter the error "Not Found" and it appears that I have my file structure setup correctly. I also ensured file permissions are correct. I created a PHP info page to test and I was able to access that document.

Re: Installation Error J4 Azure
So php info works but the fpa says file not found. Have you something in the network that would redirect when trying to access certain paths?

Re: Installation Error J4 Azure
Not at all which is why I am quite confused. I even went as far as to build another environment that consists of the Azure App Service and Azure MySQL db but without the vnet. The issue persists and it will not get passed the db part of the installation. I also made sure that the creds are correct. I can even access the db when I ssh into the app instance. When this occurs, I use the browser's console and it states "Error in DB check endpoint"
