Hello,

Try to re-upload all files (Except images) in ascii mode, If you've cPanel compress the uploads folder and upload it then extract it from the file manager, after uploading make sure that the file owner is the same user, this PHP warning (PHP Warning: include(): Failed opening) means the file not exists or wrong file owner / permission

Like I said, all permissions are correct. Files are uploaded in ASCII mode.

Hello,

I'm trying to install vBulletin, but the installation is stuck on the following screen in my latest attempt:

http://prntscr.com/j3l66b

I have tried it several times, each time with re-creating database and re-uploading files to eliminate issues with old files. The screenshot above was taken without the last database dump, just to show on which step it always fails. This happens both on version 4.2.4 and 4.2.5 as well.

My server information is:

OS: CentOS 7, fully updated, very fresh install.
Apache version: Apache/2.4.29
PHP version: 5.6.30
SQL version: 10.1.32-MariaDB
I don't have .htaccess file at all, nor any other rewrite rules. Apache installation is default. vBulletin files are the only files in the dir.

I've also set the following PHP variable from default value of 60: max_execution_time = 7200
I've also tried running upgrade.php after waiting for over 30 minutes on the stuck step. It does not help. It will error out as well.


I have this in Apache logs:

What does that tell you? Could you please let me know how to troubleshoot this further?
