I finally got the DB migration from Elgg 2.x (MySQL) to Elgg 3.x (MariaDB) working. I must admit that it's a bit hacky approach. Below were steps I took to accomplish it: 1. Install Elgg 3.3.16 using composer and vendor/bin/elgg-cli... view reply

Robert, When I installed Elgg 3.3.16 on the same system as yours, I did not have the site secret issue. But I encountered it later when trying to migrate Elgg 2.x data to Elgg3.x database. I did not use 'vendor/elgg/elgg/elgg-cli' like... view reply

The /var/data was already owned by the www-data. But after changing the owner of /var/www/elgg-config directory to www-data, the issue still exists. I faced issues with file/directory permissions before. But after correcting the owner of the... view reply

I installed Elgg 3.3.16 via composer on CentOS 8. I made sure that permission for /path/to/data directory is set to 750 and owned by Apache. I have been set up Elgg for several versions but have not encountered this error...

  My next bet would be SELinux.
  Look at this reply. There's the links to similar issues with SELinux.
  As always you can use search ;)
