Hi,
Setting up a fresh installation of XIBO on locally hosted IIS server with PHP 8.5.12.
Everything has installed correctly (it would seem) and I can log in.
When I try to create a layout I get a generic Xibo branded Error, Unexpected Error please contact support.
Looking in the database it looks like it has created the entry in the layout table but for whatever reason it can’t load the editor to work on this layout.
Any ideas??
Thanks in advance!

check the verbs “GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS”

Thanks - this did play a part in things. I ended up starting from scratch with Xibo 4.5 and using your feedback and CoPilot got things working.
