Drupal 8.x

Drupal 8 on VPS. Nginx and php 7.2. Install went smoothly. Came back to it today and it then forced me to install again. Now I'm getting warnings during the install saying the directory files doesn't exist (it does), that default_settings doesn't exist (it does) and settings doesn't (it does). Not entirely sure what has gone wrong but no matter what I do I can't get past the requirements screen - and I'm not actually sure if I want to seeing as the site was working fine on Friday.

Anyone any ideas? TIA

Good morning,

with a website running on 8.3.7 i have the problem that, when we change the path of an hyperlink, the browser of the users still point to the old path. In order to solve this, i have to clear the cache of the browser; is there a way to avoid this "manual fix" ?

i have installed the module gutenberg and i don't have the option to convert block in reutilisable block why ?

i have last module version and last drupal version.

thanks

[...]

So basically the whole process seems to work.

Now I need to update the profile picture (=user_picture) via REST:

My question was can this be done through the hook_form_alter?

I have now figured out a way to do this and thought I would share in case others are struggling with the same thing.

in my hook_form_alter I used the following:
