Installation error

Tried re-installing several times using different db details but still getting the same problem…

There are 2 other wordpress blogs installed in the same domain but I don’t had any problem installing them several months ago..

Tried re-downloading wordpress script 5 times and re-installing but still getting the same problem..

Some kind of weird problem with latest version..

Anyone, help me pls..

Thanks

I am getting the following set of errors when trying to install on Windows 2003/MySQL 5.0/PHP 5.2/FastCGI. I have never had problems setting up WP however there seems to be some issue with the latest build. It just will not bring up the install screen just keeps reporting that it can’t query a table that doesn’t exist yet, becuase it hasn’t set it up.

Anybody else see the catch-22

I found that if I rolled back to 2.3.1 everything installs correctly. I have also opened up a ticket on this. 5613

I am running into the same problem.
System specs:
-Windows 2008 Server (standard), complete installation
-PHP 5.2.5 non-threat-safe
-FastCGI to run PHP
-MySQL 5.0.45

I haven’t solved it yet. But what does work a little bit, is:

– to install WP somewhere where the installation doesn’t endup in missery.
– Then backup the database (keep it as clean as possible)
– Restore the tables into the database you wish to use
– Now open the index.php in you browser and it should work.

This is not perfect, some friends were complaining about errors they receives (couldn’t open pages etc.)

I think this indicates that the install process of WordPress 2.3.2 is not able to create tables in the database.

Hope any one has a sollution for this matter??!!

I was to quick with posting …

I found the sollution that worked for me here

People are questioning why CGI (FastCGI) is used. I don’t know, but Joomla and Invision Power Board are running fine this way. So why not with WordPress?!
