    Troubleshooting

    PHP source code is displayed instead of script output

    Your web server is not configured to serve .php files as PHP scripts. Please install PHP and configure your web server as to execute the .php files via the PHP engine.

    Internal server error

    The permissions of the php files (and/or the install directory) are inappropriate. Normally the default permissions set when creating the directory or when uploading the files should work. In some odd server configurations, you may need to set the permissions of the directory and/or files to different than the default one. If you have other php files running well, inspect their permission and apply to asRep files. Try adding execute permission to the directory and files. The solution should be found by trial and error. Or ask to your hosting provider for the correct settings.

    Configuration can not be saved (can not create settings.php file error)

    asRep script must have write permission to the installation directory to save configuration and other data. In most cases, the default directory and file permissions allow creation of a file in the directory. Try giving write permission to the install directory. In some odd cases, the file permissions (for admin.php, report.php and record.php) must also be changed to give write permission. The best way is to try different directory/file permissions to allow creation of files. If you see "settings.php" file in the directory then asRep is capable of creating files in the directory.
