Manual install ( PERSISTENT_TOKENS_KEY)

[Alvin0908]

Hello, could you please tell me where to set PERSISTENT_TOKENS_KEY during manual installation?

[error311]

I’ve updated the Install & Setup wiki page with instructions on where to set PERSISTENT_TOKENS_KEY for manual installations.

You can see the updated documentation here:
https://github.com/error311/FileRise/wiki/install-setup#set-persistent_tokens_key-for-manual-installs-required

Appreciate you pointing this out so I could clarify it in the docs.

You need to install php-mbstring

When installing via docker compose, Apache in the container doesn't start and I have to enter the container and start it manually.
