Unable to progress past editadvanced.php (setup)

Hi,

I have become stuck during the initial setup of moodle and can not progress past the editadvanced.php form. upon clicking the link to set a password for the admin user (click to enter text) nothing happens. There is nothing in the HTTP error files to give me a hint either.


See attached screengrab.

I noticed the formatting has disappeared on this form. prior to that it looked normal. DB setup went well.

I am using moodle39 and php74 on FreeBSD 12.1 running HTTPS on nginx-1.18

Either:

  1. The protocol part of the URL in the browser – HTTP or HTTPS – does not match that in $CFG->wwwroot in config.php. E.g. if $CFG->wwwroot is 'http://moodle.example.com' but the site is being accessed at https://moodle.example.com then the browser will block the JavaScript and CSS files Moodle uses.
  2. Nginx isn't correctly configured possibly resulting in slash arguments not working.
