I provide a copy of my logs and healthcheck

I describe the steps on how to reproduce the issue
New mac, new chrome extension installation, it keeps redirect me to the same page…
Hi @webdev,
Welcome to the Forum.
Have you installed the passbolt extension?
if you do not have the extension, installing the extension would solve this issue.

Bond
I’m having the same problem as the OP, and I have the extension installed. For some reason, Passbolt just isn’t detecting the extension. Ubuntu 22.10, Firefox 106.0.2 installed from the Mozilla website, not from Ubuntu’s Snap. Further information available on request.
Hi
yes I have uninstalled, reinstalled, cleaned cache go through ONYX, etc.
I have the same issue with Chrome and Firefox.

Hi @DaddyWarlock,
Can you run the health check for passbolt. I would like to see the result and the version that is being used.
su - www-data -s /bin/bash -c "/usr/share/php/passbolt/bin/cake passbolt healthcheck"
Could you try brave browser and see if you get that error. I am messing around with the code so I can see if I can reproduce this and have a look at the log files to check for any errors.
If i find anything that is a concern, will pass the message to the actual Passbolt devs.
Regards,
Bond

So I think this might be the issue
You might have the latest version of the plugin and you are using passbolt v3.7.1
Can you update Passbolt to the latest version (3.7.3) and see if it works. If it still does not work let me know and we can dig into your log files to see what is going on.

Okay, I purged my existing Passbolt installation and started fresh. I got to the web-based configuration, but it’s not letting me establish a connection to the database, whether I enter the url passbolt.mydomain.com, mydomain.com, 127.0.0.1, or even the IP address of the server. Now what?
PS: the newly-installed version is 3.7.3-1, just so you know.
@DaddyWarlock The app tends to have messages at each step if there are errors. Just to clarify, can you provide the message it says and what step you are on in the guide?
The web configuration is client side access to the backend configuration so it should be 127.0.0.1 unless your db is located on a machine different than the one that is serving passbolt.
Is your db installed and running? Can you log into it manually via the command line?
Active and running. At least, according to systemctl status mysql.service.
Here’s the error message: “A connection could not be established with the credentials provided. Please verify the settings.” I’m sure of the admin username, password, and dbname.
Step 2: Database
2022-10-30 02:24:35 warning: Warning (2): file_get_contents(/etc/passbolt/gpg/serverkey.asc): Failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [/usr/share/php/passbolt/src/Utility/Healthchecks/GpgHealthchecks.php, line 456]
2022-10-30 02:24:35 warning: Warning (2): file_get_contents(/etc/passbolt/gpg/serverkey_private.asc): Failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [/usr/share/php/passbolt/src/Utility/Healthchecks/GpgHealthchecks.php, line 458]
I hope this helps!
You could test from the command line with a forced host and port parameter like this:
mysql -u <username> -p -h127.0.0.1 -P3306
If you are able to access the database in this way, it should work from the web configuration. If it doesn’t, it is not clear why. I would generally recommend starting over as the quickest way forward.
Drop the database and the user you created if you know how, or create a new database and new user. Either way, you can start again with: sudo dpkg-reconfigure passbolt-ce-server
I tried dpkg-reconfigure and got the same error, so I went into mysql and manually created the database and user. It seems to be working now. Huzzah!
