Does anyone has solution for this issue? I encounter the same fatal error when trying to install the 4.5 version

I spun up a brand-new VM running Debian 11.5 and the release version of ChurchCRM 4.5.0. I can confirm this appears to be a bug in our code and is repeatable on new setups:

[26-Sep-2022 13:17:02 Australia/Sydney] PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Propel\Runtime\Exception\RuntimeException: No connection defined for database "default". Did you forget to define a connection or is it wrong written? in /var/www/html/vendor/propel/propel/src/Propel/Runtime/ServiceContainer/StandardServiceContainer.php:303
Stack trace:
#0 /var/www/html/vendor/propel/propel/src/Propel/Runtime/ServiceContainer/StandardServiceContainer.php(396): Propel\Runtime\ServiceContainer\StandardServiceContainer->getConnectionManager()

#3 /var/www/html/ChurchCRM/dto/SystemConfig.php(65): ChurchCRM\ListOptionQuery->getFamilyRoles()
#4 /var/www/html/ChurchCRM/dto/SystemConfig.php(79): ChurchCRM\dto\SystemConfig::getFamilyRoleChoices()
#5 /var/www/html/ChurchCRM/dto/SystemConfig.php(289): ChurchCRM\ in /var/www/html/vendor/propel/propel/src/Propel/Runtime/ServiceContainer/StandardServiceContainer.php on line 303

However, this can be worked around by:

Copy Include/Config.php.example to Include/Config.php
Edit Include/Config.php as follows:
- Enter the correct DB server address, port, and credentials.
- Edit the $srootPath='...'; per the instructions in the config file.
- Edit the $URL[0] = '...'; per the instructions in the file.
SAVE THE FILE and close it.
Go back to your web browser and reload the page (without the .../setup/ on the end)
You should see the login screen. Login with “admin/changeme”

On the first load of the page (step 4 above) there will be a short delay as the database schema is installed:
