If you see this "4 simple steps to get started with OrangeScrum" message, then it seems a database connection error.
Check the following steps to resolve the issue:
- Check your database connection properly & make sure you have provided the correct credentials.
- Change the collation to 'utf8' instead of 'utf8_unicode_ci' or vice versa
- Check the Path of the Orangescrum Folder & make sure you have provided the same path in the Constants.php inside the app/Config folder.
- Also check & make sure you have write permission (777 or 755) to "app/tmp" and "app/webroot" folders.
If you still face the issue, then please contact us for consultant's help.
It is either due to htaccess or file permission issue.
- Provide proper write permission to " app/tmp ", " app/webroot " and " app/Config " folders and their sub folders. Provide either 777 or 755 permission to the mentioned folders.
If still you face the same issue, then check your htaccess permission.
