Simon, maybe it was the user name?

But seriously, please download the latest version (work in progress) from GitHub:
https://github.com/XOOPS/XoopsCore25

and run the test again.

I'll be also testing here on my local Ubuntu 16.04, and I am sure, Richard will look into it too...

Probably getting a connection error that isn't reported correctly. That issue was already reported on GitHub, fixed, and will be in the next release.https://github.com/XOOPS/XoopsCore25/pull/145

Mamba's advice is spot on. The master branch athttps://github.com/XOOPS/XoopsCore25/ contains fixes for all issues discovered so far. Sourceforge archives won't get updated until the next release.

A few other observations on your video,
- GitHub issues, in text, are much more efficient for tracking and communication.
- When we announce core release candidates, we plan on releasing the code unless issues are reported. If you want advance notice, that is it.
- The installer will show "mysql" as it is using MySQL. There is no distinction required for the extension used, as we only use the one that is still supported.
