Hi all,

I just updated testlink from 1.7 to 1.8, by using automatic installation.
All is ok, I have performed all steps successfully.

The problem is that now I cannot login to testlink. When I enter in browser:
http://myserver/testlink/
it redirect me to:
http://myserver/testlink/install/index.php

any ideas ??

clear cookies on browser and retest

Already done !

I think that i have tried all that is written in documentation.

This is what i have done:

- upgrade and database migration
- remove {testlink_home}/install directory on host
- restart httpd service
- clear cookies and restart browser

--> but the problem is still here.

I don't think it is a cookies related issue, because if I launch request by using curl from another linux machine i get the following answer:
$ curl http://myserver/testlink/
<html><body nload="location.href='./install/index.php'"></body></html>

Must I clean Apache cache or something else ?

OK!

A mistake during the installation was the source of the problem!

File config_db.inc.php was missing

Thanks for help !
