Issue found!!!! While installation is running:
rename the filename
from
C:\Bitnami\wampstack-7.4.25-0\apache2\htdocs\UVDesk\helpdesk-project\src\kernel.php
to
C:\Bitnami\wampstack-7.4.25-0\apache2\htdocs\UVDesk\helpdesk-project\src\Kernel.php
installation is failing because of this!!!!!
Seems like the DB must be created (where is it?, is the installation/configuration process creating it?), I am not sure if I am missing a step, or something is going wrong with the installation.
Are you installing project using command or web installer?
If using command then please try web installer as well if you are facing the same issue or not.
Normally if you access public folder it will directly hit index.php file automatically.
But in your case most probably your .htaccess file is not working so that you are required to add index.php in URL to run project.
Open your .htaccess file under public folder of your project and add some random text at the top and save your file.
Now try to access your project.
Case 1:
If you are getting 500 Internal server error after adding a random text in .htaccess file.
It means it is working.
Case 2:
If you are still able to access public path of project which means .htaccess it is not working yet.
so you need to enable it in case of linux.
Open your apache2.conf file and Allow overwrite All.
<Directory /home/users/www>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
here.
Now also you need to run two below commands for enabling mod rewrite rule.
a2enmod rewrite
service apache2 restart
For windows you need to make changes for apache config file as same we have done above for linux.
@sanjeev, Thanks again for helping me out with this, once I change .htaccess file adding random text I get 500 internal server error. I will check apache configuration and htaccess file as well and will share with you my findings.
