Hello, I am experiencing the exact same problem when installing using cPanel.

Please let me know what you need. Debug is turned on and I am not seeing any errors, in the web or on the server.

For anyone wondering the answer..

After trial and error, it turns out setting the permissions to 775 on the public_html/admin directory for all directories and files resolves the issue.

I'm not sure if this is recommended during the setup or not; I don't remember seeing it if it was.

Hi,

775 is not the best option, please try 755.

Does it still work?

I tried both permissions 775 and 755, but without success.
