If the installation fails due to server issues, fix them and:
Delete all the tables in the existing database or make a new database.
Delete the storage/installed file of the app in the sever
Replace the .env file on the server with the .env file from the downloaded script.
Finally, start the installation again by visiting yourdomain.com/install.
Important Things to Remember
QwikTest CAN only be installed on your main domain or subdomain. For example, yourdomain.com or app.yourdomain.com. It CANNOT be installed in the subdirectory path of your domain, for example, www.yourdomain.com/my-app.
You should set the domain root directory to the app's /public directory, not the root directory. If you set it to the root directory, it won't work and will also expose the application's sensitive data.
