Hi, I have finally installed Koha 21.11.04 on AlmaLinux 8 and I was able to start the Web Installer.
Everything seems to be working fine. However, when I get to the creation of the "Koha Administrator Patron" (in Onboarding section), after filling in all the required data, I always get this error message: "The patron has not been created! Cardnumber or Userid may already exist." and I cannot proceed with the Web Installer. Does anyone have an idea what can cause this issue? Thanks and have a nice day!
