Installation issue on Windows XAMMP PHP 7.2: Empty /application/config/doctrine/proxies directory

Permalink June 01, 2019 at 10:41 AM

I tried installing 8.4.3 and 8.4.4 using XAMPP PHP7.2 on Windows. After installation, when I tried to go to the dashboard, I got this error:

require(C:/xampp-7.2.18/htdocs/concrete5-8.4.3/application/config/doctrine/proxies\__CG__ConcreteCoreEntitySiteType.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

I tried re-installing it again. I noticed the "/application/config/doctrine/proxies" directory had files in it but once I went to the site, all the files were automatically removed. I used CLI to re-generate the files:

concrete\bin\concrete5 orm:generate-proxies

but everytime I went to the site, the proxies directory was emptied.

I had no issue installing the same versions in PHP 7.1. How can I get this resolved?

I use WAMP on my windows machine, if you take a look at the WAMP downloads page in the PHP section you will see a warning about PHP 7.2.

I am running PHP 7.3.6 on my WAMP Box with no issues..
