Hi All

I just thought I would install 5.7 now it is a couple of releases in but got this on install.

Has anyone come across this error before? Is it my hosting settings?

Any help appreciated

looks to me like the process the installer is running under doesn't have the correct rights.
Is this shared hosting or a server/VPS you've set up yourself?

Hi Andy

It´s a managed VPS, I can get it set anyway I like, it´s just a case of figuring out what I need.

Cheers

Well I came back to this again this morning.

When I went to my site URL the errors did not show any more errors but re-offered me the installation screen again, so I ran it again.

This time it told me there were already tables in the database so could not install.
I dropped all the database tables so I had an empty db and installed again.
The second attempt seems to have worked fine (untested yet) and I now have an install.

No changes were made to my hosting environment so I really have no idea what caused this issue.

Maybe I should have waited until 5.7 gets more stable.
I am going to push on and see what 5.7 is like.
If anyone has any suggestions as to what the problem might have been or still is I would be grateful as I don´t really want to have to go through this each time I set up a site.
