Installer Fails on Step 3 (Create Admin) - No Error, No Log
Chris Darden ( User )
Hello,
I have been trying to install the latest version of Akaunting from Git on a Raspberry Pi running Debian 12 (Bookworm). My server stack is Nginx with PHP 8.2-FPM and MariaDB.
After extensive troubleshooting, the server is fully configured. I can start the web installer, select my language, and successfully connect to the database in Step 2.
However, on Step 3 (Admin User setup), when I fill out the form and click Finish, the page simply redirects back to Step 1 (Language selection) without any error message on the screen.
The application log file at storage/logs/laravel.log remains completely empty, even with 775 permissions on the entire storage directory, which is owned by www-data. This indicates a silent failure in the final step of the web installer. The command-line installer (php artisan install) also fails with a generic "Not able to create a new user" error.
This appears to be a bug in the installer script. Can anyone advise?
