[Typo3-debian] typo3 v3.5 - Interesting access problem over webfrontend

Hello Stefan,

What was the error? Why didn't you just try to solve this problem?

Yes the removal should be clean this way.

The 1-2-3 interface appears if you open www.mysite.com/ while no database is
specified in localconf.php.

The advanced install tool shows up if you open www.mysite.com/typo3/install/
directly...

Sure? Please check this again.

<hint>
To make sure that the permissions of your webserver are right, you can use
the "su" command while working as root (needed because only then no
password is expected):

# su - www-data
</hint>

> Thanks for any idea and I hope my description was understandable!

I think it misses a lot of details. Please do more research (check log
files, post the output, try to connect to MySQL with the commandline
client, etc.) next time.
