Summary18363: install process generates "buggy" config file
Description

the limesurvey installer generates a config.php file in which the 'session' part is as follows:
'session' => array (
'sessionName'=>'LS-CDAGLJWFNFAVEZJU'
// Uncomment the following lines if you need table-based sessions.
// Note: Table-based sessions are currently not supported on MSSQL server.
// 'class' => 'application.core.web.DbHttpSession',
// 'connectionID' => 'db',
// 'sessionTableName' => '{{sessions}}',
),

If you just uncomment the lines as stated, you get wrong positioning for commas, like this:
'session' => array (
'sessionName'=>'LS-CDAGLJWFNFAVEZJU' <----- missing comma
// Uncomment the following lines if you need table-based sessions.
// Note: Table-based sessions are currently not supported on MSSQL server.
'class' => 'application.core.web.DbHttpSession',
'connectionID' => 'db',
'sessionTableName' => '{{sessions}}',
),

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce

run installer on a fresh limesurvey ce installation

Expected result

config.php files should have a line like this
// , 'class' => 'application.core.web.DbHttpSession',

Actual result

limesurvey won't work

TagsNo tags attached.

This seems to be resolved in 5.x and up by adding a trailing comma to the sessionName line
Therefore, I am closing this issue. If you still can reproduce the issue using the latest version, please feel free to re-open the issue.
Thank you!
