This issue is a very common for those who try to install Joomla!
locally using XAMPP and WAMP during Joomla! 3 installation process, it
hangs forever at the “Creating database tables” step:
Take following steps to solve the problem:
Go to wamp\www\your-joomla\installation\sql\mysql (if you are using Wampp) or Xampp\htdocs\Your joomla folder\installation\sql\mysql (for
Xampp)
Open Joomla.sql file find the term ENGINE=InnoDB and replace all with ENGINE=MyIsam

Windows 10 Magento 2.4 zip install on XAMPP has nowhere to agree to terms

I'm trying to get Magento 2.4 running using the production ready zip and I keep getting it to this point where I believe it's ready to start the setup process, but it's waiting for me to agree to the ToS. Unfortunately there's no agree button or instructions on if there's a file I need to edit. I just did a fresh install of XAMPP with PHP 7.4 and still have the same issue, and can't find a similar mention on google.
Is there supposed to be an agree button, do I need to edit a file?
Term & Agreement link leads here, still no agree button. Getting started link takes me to installation instructions for a Linux CLI
I saw I may still need to run the composer install command even on Windows, but I was under the impression the production ready zip already had the dependencies included. Where am I going wrong??
Update: I got composer running in windows terminal and it returns that there is nothing to install.
According to the official site docs, in a note at the top of the installation instructions for a CLI install of Magento 2.3:
"The Web Setup Wizard is being deprecated in Magento 2.3.6 and will be removed in Magento 2.4.0. After it is removed, you must use the command line to install or upgrade Magento."
So you cannot install Magento 2.4 without touching the command line.

Problem with migration Joomla 1.5.26 to 3.x with jUpgradePro

I need to migrate an old website witch is using Joomla 1.5 to Joomla 3.x.
I updated Joomla to 1.5.26 and I decided to buy and use tool jUpgradePro from https://matware.com.ar/subscriptions/jupgradepro-subscription.html .
I configured everything and I'm trying to start migration but there's one problem and I need Your help.
When I start using cmd of jupgradepro there's one error message after using command composer install.
Cannot update only a partial set of packages without a lock file present
What can I do with this problem, any Issue? I was trying to search something in web, but finally have to ask You for help.
One thing that I can say is that this example is a test so target domain is a subdomain (http://ernestdolowy.pl/projects/szpital/nowytest/) and source site has just empty test template, is that a problem? Joomla 3.x is well configured on subdomain.
Finally I need to migrate Joomla 3.x to Wordpress but right now I have to solve this problem.
Thank you in advance for your help :)
I got same problem, and found this solution on my local machine:
In Joomla site, xxx\administrator\components\com_jupgradepro I copied the composer.json file to composer.lock
I started composer install command from command line (in Windows, not in built-in jUpgradePro). It installed all dependencies, and in jUpgradePro command line window the check site command worked fine.

uwamp - What is best pratice when it comes to upgrading?

We currently run Uwamp 2.2.1.
Versiojn 3.1.0 is available. What i9s best practice when upgrading. i.e. how do do it? We are new to Uwamp, bit we successfully run an internal website based on mysql.
Thank you
I think the best practice when you do such a change of version (2.2.1->3.1.0) is :
1- Save your website (to a zip for example)
2- Save your MySQL database (in phpMyAdmin of the old UwAmp with the export option...)
3- Install the new version of UwAmp 3.1.0
4- Import your saves (database and website) in the new version of UwAmp.
Tell me if you want more detail...

getting "ERROR: AJAX Loading Error: Forbidden" error when trying to upgrade Joomla version 3.5.1 to 3.6.4

I have tried to upgrade Joomla version from 3.5.1 to 3.6.4 from Joomla control panel by click on "Update Now" button. And got "ERROR: AJAX Loading Error: Forbidden"
Please see the screenshot http://easycaptures.com/fs/uploaded/1107/5217107686.jpg
How can i fix the issue? Thanks advance for helping !
Here is what I would do, make a site backup.
Then manually updated by extracting the update patch package in the root directory. Go to the link below and find the package that is specifically intended for updating from versions prior to 3.6.X
https://downloads.joomla.org/cms/joomla3/3-6-4
Joomla! 3.6.4 Upgrade Package (.zip)
This package is for performing updates from Joomla! 2.5 and previous 3.x releases to 3.6.4
Please let me know if you have any issues with updating in this manner.

SOLVED THE PROBLEM !!!
Here is the total solution of my mentioned issue !! I tried hard to solve the issue in various way but failed.
I fixed my issue once followed this tutorials.
https://docs.joomla.org/J3.x:Upgrading_from_Joomla_3.4.x_to_3.5
Stay fine with Joomla !!!
"Forbidden" seems to indicate that there is a restriction accessing a file.
Some things to try:
temporarily revert to the default .htaccess file by backing up the current .htaccess file and copying htaccess.txt to .htaccess
reset file permissions by installing the free or paid version of Akeeba Admin Tools (if it's not already installed) and run the "Fix Permissions" tool
temporarily disable security extensions or tools that may be restricting access to the update files
In my particular case, it was the last suggestion which was relevant. I worked out how to bypass Sucuri as an administrator by adding an entry in my local hosts file to access
the website via its direct IP address. The update then worked flawlessly.

joomla: jomsocial installation problem (winxp)

i'm trying to install the jomsocial plugin on my local joomla.
joomla (v1.6) was freshly installed from scratch - i'm having the latest version of jomsocial (v2.20)
i've followed the jomsocial installation instructions but it didn't work,
during the installation process i got the same error over + over again:
Strict Standards: Only variables should be assigned by reference in ...
any ideas what could be wrong?
thanks
It would be helpful if you posted the complete error, but it looks like you need to change your php.ini error reporting log level.
