BE User Settings - Admin Funktions - Create Install Tool Enable File, no file is created
100%
Description
Running Typo3 V 4.5.3 on Windows 2003 R2 with IIS 6.0 and PHP 5.2.1
Up to Typo3 Version 4.4.6, the install tool enable file was created without any problems.
I updated to 4.5.3 recently and since then, the file is not created when the button "Create Install Tool Enable File" is pressed.
If the file exists, it is recognized and the button says "Delete Install Tool Enable File". Clicking the button will not remove the file ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL (no file extension!).
No success, failure or error message is displayed, no php error in the php log file, no deprecation message in the deprecation log.
It is not possible for me to provide debug information as I did not find out how to produce debugging messages in Typo3 4.5.3 in the BE... and I did not find any help googling on how to produce debug messages. cc_devlog is obsolete, I installed it anyways and it does not write anything into the database table or on the page.
I migrated the Typo3 System to Windows Server 2008 R2 with IIS 7 and PHP 5.3.2, currently running Typo3 4.4.6. Everything is working fine in this environment. I could update to Typo3 4.5.3 to see if the issue would be resolved, but I am also having an issue with the new Extension Manager and this is the productive system.

Hi Andreas,
has the user, which runs the web server, write-access to the typo3conf directory?
Updated by Andreas Mohr over 13 years ago
The user has all necessary rights assigned, the permissions on the directories are good. Using the install tool - all configuration to update localconf works perfectly. And - by the way - everything else in the BE works fine. The system was running with Typo3 4.4.6 for a couple of days and the "Enable Install Tool" button worked fine in axactly this environment, I only deleted / replaced the Typo3 core files in root, typo3lib and typo3 dirs.

- % Done changed from 0 to 90
The issue is the following:
In the Admin Functions Tab - Create Install Tool Enable File, per default no User is selected in the "Simulate Backend User" Box (refer to screen capture). In the context of the Backend, it is not obvious that the selection of a value in "Simulate Backend User" is required in order for the successful execution of the "Create Install Tool Enable File" or "Delete Install Tool Enable File".
Fur the upcoming version I would suggest that the selection of a user under "Simulate Backend User" is
a) marked as required or
b) an error message is given when no User is selected or
c) use the current users context to preset the value
In my example my user has admin priviledge, I guess it should be possible to preset admin() as default for the selection as my Username is not contained in the list.
I am setting the status to 90% done as the issue is identified. I do not know who I can assign the issue to.

Sorry, it's wrong. You don't have to select a backend user to hit the Create Install Tool Enable File. If it is in you case, sth. is really wrong. Could you then please have a look at the POST request, which is sent to the server (with and without having a user selected).
Thanks

!!! ? Now it is working ? !!!
During the last couple of days I have installed the System Extensions that have been outsourced in Typo3 4.5.2. I have been doing some "debugging" - one issue was that the filelist was "suddenly not displayed anymore"... note: after we updated from 4.4. to 4.5. I was not conscious of this, but it would make sence that the fileadmin extension might be required for the "Create/Delete Install tool" to function properly (?). There were a couple of "problems" solved after I installed the filelist extension... Its only a guess, though...
