Unable to install

Below is what shows up on Step 2/8
Step 2: System Check
Server information
Server software : : Apache

Certain files does not have adequate permission
config.php
I clicked next and got to Step 4/8 I see this
Can't connect to DB, please check inserted data
The DB is indeed in working order as in the root of the domain resides a wordpress website;
LMS is hosted on a dedicated server that we own.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Where is this config file?
I can't find it in the root folder (there's a "config.dist.php" but not a "config.php")

Reading the 'readme.txt' file there is about this
---

Figured out the above, it was indeed the 'config.dist.php' that was 'config.php', needed to be renamed and it was all good
Got to step 6/8 and it's been "Importing Database" for about 15 minutes now.

There are tables & some data in MySQL but its still just sitting on Importing Database, any ideas?

Hi SolutionsIT, did you manage to finish the install procedure?
The config file is usually generated at the end of the install procedure, while if it stuck during db import try to restart the procedure

Nope, locks up exact same spot every time
I know there is zero issues with the server as we've had more then enough installs of other CMS's installed on it.
Something with Forma just isn't jiving with the server... what no clue
