  1. This was such a great write up! Thanks. I get to launching it in my browser but then this error appears and setup does not continue. Any thoughts as to what the cause may be?

    “Unable to load parameters.php – please run setup to generate a parameters.php file.”

  2. Hello, Thank you for the post. I have followed it and could setup successfully using php 7.0. But on the setup complete tab, where it says partkeepr will be opened after you click submit button, nothing happens.
