[OJS 3.1.2.1] "freezing" during installation

[Velizariy]

OJS Version 3.1.2.1
PHP 7.1.11
The installation is freezing at the stage of entering the user and server data. When you click the “Install” button, nothing happens. I’m staying on the same window.

Hi @Velizariy, i’m having the same issue right now, did you find a solution? thanks in advance.

In truth, I asked for help and others installed the system for me. I still did not understand what it was, after all.

Is this a case of the submit button on the installation page not doing anything, or is the submit button simply refreshing the installation page to the same state over again without an error message? For the second case, there is a similar resolved report here:

Thanks for help and your support. I was trying to install before both with mySQL and mySQLi but neither try succeeded. However, while I change into mySQLi and changed username according to your remarks, to one using lowercase latin alphabet letters only, the installation script worked correctly. So the problem to my mind was connected with lack of error message in validator of username field.
