Logs
OpenEMR has already been installed. If you wish to force re-installation, then edit /var/www/html/openemr/library/classes/…/…/sites/default/sqlconf.php (change the ‘config’ variable to 0), and re-run this script.

how to find the full path.

Full path is listed in the message you posted…

/var/www/html/openemr/library/classes/…/…/sites/default/sqlconf.php

Unix naming convention applies - go up the directory for every “…”. So that would be -

/var/www/html/openemr/sites/default/sqlconf.php

Not sure if at any point you had a fully functional install. Regardless -

  1. When setup script returns error you should also check OS, DB and PHP logs for more details.
  2. When you edited sqlconf.php, be sure to drop/rename emr database.
  3. If you are OK with loosing data from prior installation, perform a clean installation.
  4. If you wish to retain prior data, rename current DB, perform a clean install, drop installed DB and rename prior DB.

Best luck.
