Install fails after config screen
Hello
Installed Piwigo 14.5.0 on Ubuntu 24.04 with PHP 8.3.6.
The install page is displayed and if db params are filled in incorrectly I get proper error message.
If filled in correctly, I get an error from Apace or no response at all.
The Apache2 error.log has this message:
[Thu Oct 10 18:33:02.615002 2024] [proxy_fcgi:error] [pid 1476:tid 134003447301824] [client 192.168.10.86:59515] AH01071: Got error 'PHP message: PHP Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: fputs(): Argument #1 ($stream) must be of type resource, false given in /var/www/html/piwigo/install.php:334\nStack trace:\n#0 /var/www/html/piwigo/install.php(334): fputs()\n#1 {main}\n thrown in /var/www/html/piwigo/install.php on line 334', referer: http://192.168.10.65/piwigo/install.php

Directory or file permissions problem. Searching the forum for the error message reveals among others [Forum, topic 32323] Install Error and specifically [Forum, post 184745 by erAck in topic 32323] Install Error.
