Quote from: andytough at Mar 07, 2019, 12:23 PMI think it would be worth trying a newer version of PHP. Some people have had problems installing certain extras with PHP versions below 5.4.
Andy, you have rescued me from a very dark place (especially dark after the demise of Keith Flint). I was just seconds away from clicking the "Buy Now" on the Beaver Builder page, which would have meant scrapping MODX and going over to WP. No need now. The sun is shining. The birds are singing in the trees. The caterpillars have stopped eating all our cabbages.
Switched over to PHP 7, ran the install again with no problems. Sorted.
I owe you a coffee, a beer, or a whole barrel of beer.
Thanks also to you, Bob, for your earlier, tireless assistance.
