I am moving a site from a shared hosting to VPS. I am using 8.3.7
While after copying the files and import the database, changed the settings.php, when go to the site, its always redirecting to /core/install.php. It seems to me the permission issue, i set 755 permission to /sites/default folder and all files, but still getting the same.

I checked that I can install a fresh D8 site there using the same code based, working fine. But when I import the database, its start redirecting. Not sure what is inside the database dump, which causing this.

I tried to setup locally, all working fine.

OS: Ubuntu, VestaCP, PHP 7

Could anyone help me out, what causing this problem?

thanks

I found and fixed the issue, writing for future reference. I am not sure, who is responsible Drupal or Mailchimp, But Drupal need to give some appropriate message, rather then redirecting to installation page, this is very confusing.

As mailchimp is subscription is registered for different domain, when I moved the hosting, the domain name was different, that caused some Drupal Event Subscription Exception. As a result redirecting to install.php page.
