New SuiteCRM 8 installer doesn't run - browser shows "Forbidden You don't have permission to access this resource"

[dalescott]

Hi all, I’m attempting to install SuiteCRM 8 to try out all the cool new features but instead of the installer appearing in my browser I get “Forbidden You don’t have permission to access this resource”.

I am attempting to install SuiteCRM-8.0.3.zip on FreeBSD v13 with PHP 8.0.15, Apache 2.4.52 and MariaDb 10.5.13, and using the recommended vhost definition in the installation instructions.

Reveiwing the SuiteCRM v8 php requirements list, I have all modules installed except for “cli” and “common”.

phpinfo reports my server php configure command includes ‘–disable-cli’. However “php --version” reports “PHP 8.0.15 (cli) (built: Jan 22 2022 01:15:46)”, implying cli is present.

“common” appears to be a distribution-specific collection of commonly used modules, and available on at least on REL but not on FreeBSD. My installed modules are listed below. Can anyone say if I’m missing any which would result in the “Forbidden…” error connecting to SuiteCRM 8?

Thanks in advance,
Dale
