Feel free to move/remove if this is not appropriate.
I wonder if we could aggregate some troubleshooting steps and sticky to the top of the support thread? Searching the forum for issues that are identical to what you may be facing is often met with some variables that make the process a bit more tedious than it has to be. I think we can improve the effectiveness of the forum, and increase the satisfaction of Mautic users as well. Lots of us spend time trying to answer the posts but I think we can all agree a high percentage are lack of searching and/or repetitive.
Ill go first:
-Step One: Clear Cache via CLI using cache:clear
-Step Two: Ensure permissions are properly set (thanks @mikew for this ----> )
chown -u www-data:www-data (on the whole Mautic directory)
-Step Three: Verify php.ini has appropriate maximums set for memory, execution time, and that a time zone is set.
-Step Four: open mautic/app/config/local.php and turn debugging on (line 120 in local.php)
'debug' => true,
-Step Five: set db driver to pdo_mysql by editing line 3 of local.php like so 'db_driver' => 'pdo_mysql'
-Step Six run php -v to ensure proper PHP version. On most servers there are 2 versions of PHP and CLI PHP
