Trying to install TastyIgniter, haven't been able to make much progress for two days. I downloaded the .zip for the version hosted on Git, re-uploaded it to a GoDaddy hosted server with cPanel installed. I used the Database Wizard to create OrderDB, with ClayDB as the user with all permissions attached. I first uploaded the .zip to a directory a few folders deep within the structure and extracted it. 

I wasn't getting anywhere, this is where the redirect error first showed. I deleted the extracted folder and its modified contents, then moved the .zip to my root folder on the hosted server. Extracted the files, immediately tried had the same error. Edited the contents of some files, i.e. ../TastyIgniter-master/system/tastyigniter/config/routes.php, to no avail. Every time I try to access index.php, it redirects me to the page I was at previously with seemingly nothing new happening.

Following the directions, it doesn't seem like I missed a step. 

Details Installation Step 1: Download and extract TastyIgniter Step 2: Create the database and a database user Step 3: Set up system's config/database.php Step 4: Uploading TastyIgniter's files Step 5: Run the setup script Step 6: Finishing installatio

Here's the code from the database config file:

************************************************

<?php  if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct access allowed');

$active_group = 'default'; $query_builder = TRUE;

$db['default']['dsn'] = ''; $db['default']['hostname'] = 'localhost'; $db['default']['username'] = 'ClayDB'; $db['default']['password'] = '*******'; $db['default']['database'] = 'OrderDB'; $db['default']['dbdriver'] = 'mysqli'; $db['default']['dbprefix'] = 'ti_'; $db['default']['pconnect'] = TRUE; $db['default']['db_debug'] = (ENVIRONMENT !== 'production'); $db['default']['cache_on'] = FALSE; $db['default']['cachedir'] = ''; $db['default']['char_set'] = 'utf8'; $db['default']['dbcollat'] = 'utf8_general_ci'; $db['default']['swap_pre'] = ''; $db['default']['autoinit'] = TRUE; $db['default']['encrypt']  = FALSE; $db['default']['compress'] = FALSE; $db['default']['stricton'] = FALSE; $db['default']['failover'] = array(); $db['default']['save_queries'] = (ENVIRONMENT !== 'production');

/* End of file database.php */ /* Location: ./system/tastyigniter/config/database.php */

***************************************************

It could be the  data source name that's throwing me off, but I'm not sure what that string needs.

Help is appreciated, thanks.

    I'm having the same issue. I got it to work one time by switching PHP Versions. Don't ask me how. But now i does this same thing. I get through the install process, am asked to select admin dashboard or the frontend site and once i click one of them I'm back to the license text.

    By the way: Checked the .htaccess files, they seem to be correct. Also folder and file permissions seem to be okay, too.

      TastyIngnighter, your install process a gimmick and ploy to try and force people to buy your support subscriptions? Installation should be straight forward. Why is this issue not resolved? I am getting the exact same issue!? Read several things on this forum and non have them works. The response from the "support" team is vague. Please respond to the install proccess.

      1. Why is setup looking for the "requirement" folder in setup that is not obviously there? 2. Why when the httpaccess files are edited, there are still issues there?

      I downloaded the latest version and the issues discussed on this post and other relevant posts still seem to have an issue.

        I am also having this issue. It is looking for missing 'requirements' page
