Can we have info:
wp version
server specs
and as much other stuff you think we should know.
I’ve the same problem.
I used Version 1.0.1
PHP 4.3.3
MySQL 4.0.15 – Standard
and I added PHP4 extention in the control pannel of my site.
same problem here:
xp pro IIS 5.1
WP 1.2
PHP 5.0.3
MySql 4.1.9 (standard install)
it’s stuck somewhere in upgrade_all()
Ditto with installing 1.2.2 on TextDrive.
I checked the database and noticed the the user table was created successfully, so I hacked the intall.php to get the admin password, etc.
Something definitely failed, though, as I cannot make changes to certain settings in the admin including:
Options\General\Times in the weblog should differ by
Options\Permalinks\Category prefix
Plugins — Can’t activate Search Hilite

Ah, your search-foo is better than mine, macmanx. 😉
So, for the record, I changed line 705 in /wp-admin/upgrade-functions.php that reads:
if ($res[0]['Type'] != 'varchar(32)') {
to
if ($res[0]->Type != 'varchar(32)') {
Then I ran upgrade.php.
Now it’s all working fine.
i had the same problems everyone was having. i was about to throw my computer out the window in frustration and curse until the cows came home. then i figured it was probably not meant to run on IIS. i emailed them right away to switch me over to Unix, and surely, it is five minutes!
