Installation fails to create admin was created by bragamiguel
Dear Xerte Support,

I've just installed your latest and greatest in my webserver. The installation runs smoothly, throws no errors, but somehow doesn't creates de admin user or it sets the authentication method from Guest to DB, as selected.

Whenever I try to login it just "loops" the homepage, again no errors.

Am I missing something?

Best regards

@bragamiguel:

When selecting Db, you need to create users to be able to login. Also, the admin login is a special login that only works on the management.php page. So, please login on the management.php page with the admin account and create some users in the Users section. You can use any of those users to login in Xerte.

The admin login does NOT work on the normal login page.

Hi Tom, I see now! Just tested and works. I'm still within a Drupal user logic, this is my first contact with Xerte.
Thank you very much, have a great holiday season and may 2022 bring us all we wish!
