install.php?step2 doesn’t execute

    I upgraded my mysql version and checked to make sure I’m running the correct php version (i am) – created an empty database and user with full privileges – unzipped and uploaded all the files and edited the config file.

    After I enter the blog name and my email address and click install word press, I get a “page can’t be displayed” error message. If I try to refresh the page I then get the ERROR: you must provide an e-mail address message.

    Any ideas? I’ve tried just about everything I know to do. I was really hoping I could get this up and running. I tried b2evolution but have been having to many problems with it.

    Thanks for the response. I’m not sure that the database is the problem. The database is there but there is nothing in it yet. No tables at all. Something is going awry when the code is trying to create the tables and initiate the install process. I think I’ll try removing all of the WP files and download it again and try from scratch.

    Tried the fresh install but that didn’t work so I installed on one of our other servers and it worked fine. I’m guessing the upgrade to mysql4 didn’t go off as smoothly as it first appeared on the other box. I have a cron job that checks the database periodically and repairs any problems so hopefully when that runs it will fix it.
