What worked for you? I have the problem and that thread didn’t help

Well I got past this problem by installing a different webserver (Omniserve). Xitami ws a bit flakey for me anyway.
Got another problem now thouhg (in a new thread.)

I seem to have the same ‘loop’ problem when I get to running install.php.
To Laughing Lizard: the install of 1.0 now includes s cript to create the wp-config.php file for you.
The first step is to run install-config.php, this sets up wp-config.php, then you are supposed to run install.php to ste up the dtatbase, but some of us are getting stuck in loop here it seems.
Anyway, the wp-config.php file was reated properly AFAICS.
Win2k, Xitami 2.5 webserver, MySQL 3.23.52-nt, PHP 4.2.3

The URL is correct (other links on the login page work ok)
Unforutnaltey the logs don’t help that much:
“POST /wp/b2login.php HTTP/1.1” 404 0 “https://www.chrisfrench.org/wp/b2login.php” “”
is a typical entry
Looking at the php code for the page, b2login, calls itself to deal with the input to the form, quite why this means the server says it can’t find th page i don’t know.
correct info, or even no info, different browsers (Opera and IE), clearing out the databse and reinitializing – all get the same response.

Ahh, thanks, that seems to have sorted that problem – editted the php.ini file.
However, once I complete the intial login page my webserver retruns a ‘404’page not found error’
I’m not sure how to work out what url it thinks it is looking for, as i assume it is some path/url problem somewhere.

PS
I forgot to mention that I have checked the wp-setting.php file for blank lines at the end as this was mentioned as a possible source of the errors (with other files) in previous threads.
