    I have tried several times to install the chat with no success, when I click next it goes to a blank page as shown in the image ...

    I have filled in the details here ..

    I did create a mysql database on my server.

    anyone have an idea what I have done wrong?

    I went ahead and tried a manual install, but still have the same problem with a blank page

    For info I run php7.3 on my server

      Might be the .htaccess file causing this. Rename that file (in the plus folder) and test again.
      If needed, contact me privately and we can go for a TeamViewer session together.

        Tried that, even removed them, still nothing.

        One thing I have noticed the site is saying not secure, even though I know it is.

        We are friends on FB (Les) you can dm me there if you wish.

    All fixed, it seems I had the wrong setting in the config file, many thanks to Ciprian for stepping in to fix it for me

    I am unable to install too. Tried a manual install but still gives a blank page. Changed the htaccess file too but the same thing. Lesmond, please what setting did you change in your config file?

    The settings in the config/config.lib.php file were not set right to correspond with my database settings
    make sure these 3 lines are the same has your database name/user and password

    replace cpanelname_chatdb, cpanelname_chatuser and chatuser_password with the ones in the database.

    // Database settings
    define("C_DB_NAME", 'cpanelname_chatdb');       // Logical database name on that server (most common like: cpanelusername_databasename)
    define("C_DB_USER", 'cpanelname_chatuser');     // Database username (most common like: cpanelusername_username)
    define("C_DB_PASS", 'chatuser_password');       // Database user's password

    Thanks lesmond for the response. Yes, i replaced the db name, user and password with the ones in my db. They correspond. Am i missing something else?
