May I ask how to set it up? Is it to directly edit the conf.php file? All the edit boxes in the browser are currently uneditable @GhanshyamParmar ---

Yes you can directly edit the cong.php **Ghanshyam Parmar** Mob No. +91-78200 20079 Email: [ghanshyamparmar@mail.com](mailto:ghanshyamparmar@mail.com) Vadodara, Gujarat India ---

It still can’t be used. Directly modifying the conf.php file won’t install the program properly ---

I hope this will help you, the easy way is to remove the file /var/www/dolibarr/htdocs/install/install.forced.php if you don’t need it of course. ---

You can also rename the file install.forced.php to install.forced.sample.php like it was in the previous version The variable responsible of this issue is : $force\_install\_noedit=2 As described in the file : 2 = lock all set variables ---
