Install to server subdirectory path not working with PW 2.7?

[nixsofar]

I want to run processwire at example.com/subdir.

If I install PW 2.6.1 - no problem at all.

If I repeat exactly the same few super simple steps with PW 2.7.0, example.com/subdir/processwire gives me a 404 not found error already from the "Login to admin" button at install.php.

Tried several times.

What can I possibly be missing?

That's hard to say. I'd have a look in your browser's developer console if there's a redirect of some kind going on (or not) that causes the problem, then look into the server logs to see if something jumps your eyes.

@nixsofar: Do you speak from the exact same server in regard of the 2.6 and 2.7 installs?

And what's about to install the 2.6, and after checking and seeing it's running, just upload the complete wire folder and subfolders from 2.7 to, e.g. wire-27. After upload is complete, rename wire to wire-26 and wire-27 to wire. Besides the complete wire folder you also have to switch the index.php. That's all. (the htaccess hasn't any changes between this two versions and can stay as is).

Does this work?

Was not able to solve this issue with 2.7.0

As of 2.7.1 no more problem.

Thanks for your ideas.
