    Default Cannot log in to install.php

    Hi,

    I hope someone has encountered this problem before.

    I'm doing a manual install from 2.11 to 3.2, and I get I need to enter the install password. I forget what it is, so removed the $GLOBALS['TL_CONFIG']['installPassword'] line in localconfig.php and reset the password. Now, I cannot log in, when I enter the new password, the same login page keeps reloading, asking for the password. The check tool shows no errors, and I cannot find a solution to this issue. Does anyone have any ideas?

    edit: i also checked that localconfig.php has utf-8 encoding with BOM

    Nevermind, the problem was that the websitePath was set incorrectly in localconfig.php

    if anyone has a similar issue, then you prolly just need to remove the password and enc.key line and enter typolight as password, and then enter the install.php address again after each step

    This is only true for very old TYPOlight installations. Current Contao versions don't ask for a default password in the install tool.

    PHP Code:
    $GLOBALS['TL_CONFIG']['encryptionKey'] = '360bc8673d4ae2e147a7feb53b476a07'
    encryptionKey is not in use. You can ignore it.
