Promblems installing a second instance of concrete

Permalink
Hello,

I recently just finished developing a site on concrete (installed locally on wamp).

I wanted to start a second project for a friend so i put a clean version of concrete in a different folder. the installation starts up, but after having entered my credentials and my SQL links and logins, it just hangs when i click on start. Nothing happens and it just stays there.

It worked perfectly for the first install. and the wamp settings are the same as when i installed it the first time.

Tried it with 5.5.21 (same as for the first project) and with 5.6.0 as well but to no avail.

can anyone offer any suggestions?

thanks a bunch

Looks like you have a clean install folder, but do you have a fresh new db to go along with it?

Yes I created a fresh one for this.

when I enter the logins it goes to:
http://localhost/concrete5.6.0/index.php/install/-/configure/...

and just hangs. nothing happens

The first thing that comes to mind is "file permissions".

Second is clear all your windows temp files as a "borked" session temp file may be getting in the way.

I also saw this:
http://www.concrete5.org/community/forums/installation/concrete-5.5...

After that I would investigate why PHP's session_start() function is hanging. I have not looked to deeply into that topic, but may if none of the above resolves your issue.

I took a hint about the temp files..etc and I went a more roundabout way.

I installed it on a different PC and then copied the main folder and exported the DB.

Came to my PC and copied it over, created the usernames and then imported the SQL and it works like a charm!

Thanks a lot for this! was a great help!
