Regarding nethserver, I keep getting an error message when I try the first and second installs in the instructions. ![](https://ask.gibbonedu.org/uploads/editor/tr/0yea67qkrqb3.png) ---

If you remove config.php, then Gibbon will assume it is uninstalled, and return you to the installer on the next page load or refresh. ---

I cannot find config.php even searching the entire server using the “find” command. Is it hidden and if so what is the default location for config.php? ---

It should be in the root, e.g. /etc/var/html for you. ---

@admin thnx for the words on nethserver and the gibbon install howto.
