Hi, I followed step by step the installation tutorial video I found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwmaR_-nxNA for formalms, but when I try to access 'localhost/formalms' after step 8 (installation completed) I get redirected to the beginning of the installation procedure and cannot access forma. Help :(

Did you remove the install folder?

yes I tried both renaming it and deleting it and it just either kept on looping or straight up gave me Error 404 (because for some reason I keep getting redirected to 'localhost:8080/formalms/install' whenever I try to access 'localhost:8080/formalms/')

Is config.php present in your root folder with db credentials compiled?

I do not know exactly what you mean by that (ignorance on my part, sorry) but I did download and put the config.php file as shown in the video i linked; is that good enough?

Provide a screenshot of the file listing of the root folder (where install folder is, as well as appLms, appCore, index.php, config.php and so on).

(My screen is not big enough to fit it all in the screenshot but folders like appCore are indeed in the root folder)
