[Koha] "Internal Server Error" after installing Koha -- Database has no tables

[Ryan W]

Yes, it’s resolved. I accidentally replied only to Ketan and not to the

I was missing this line in ports.conf:

Listen 8080

After restarting Apache I can now access the web installer, and it is
working properly.

Thank you.
