nuinstall.php missing

I downloaded nuBuilder from GitHub and it seemed to install OK until I tried to login then there was a page of PHP type errors - session already active, etc.

After digging around a bit I think this is because I hadn't run nuinstall.php as you did with nuBuilder Pro.
However, this file is not part of the Forte download on GitHub.

Is this no longer required?
What is the step after copying the files to my server, setting up the DB and editing the config file?

Any help greatly appreciated.
I'm really intreaged to see what nuBuilder is capable of.

Thanks,
Gordon

Hi Gordon,

All you need to do is import nubuilder4.sql into the new database. (e.g. with the phpmyadmin import function)

Yes I did that and the tables seemed to be set up as I'd seen on YouTube demos.

I am running this on my Windows 10 PC under XAMPP 3.2.2 and with PHP 7.2.0.
I think that is a common setup and I saw that Forte was developed on PHP7.

Don't waste much time on this. I am just a hobbyist mainly, possibly with an opening to start replacing Excell "Databases" at work with MySQL and nuBuilder front end.

It looks great on the demos and if I can't get it working now I'll come back to it later.

All the best,
Gordon

Yes I saw that but a reply from Admin said "I would have downloaded a version with PHP version 7. (That's what we used to make nuBuilder Forte.)" So based on that I had assumed that PHP 7.2.0 was OK.

From what I can see of his screen and errors it looks very similar to what I am seeing.

I have installed XAMPP with PHP 5.6.32 and tried install again.
Worked first time.

Thanks very much for all your help.
