Can someone help me with installation of wordpress 2.7. I have installed it with wrong username and password so i deleted the tables and database (my private server) and wanted to install wordpress again but I get this error:
'.__('Already Installed').'
'.__('You appear to have already installed WordPress. To reinstall please clear your old database tables first.').'
What can I do now? How to tell wordpress that I have already deleted the sql database?
Thank you very much for your help.
It's still recognizing the database for some reason. Have you created a new database, with a different name, and then changed that information in the wp config.php file?

I am having the same problem. I deleted everything wordpress related from my server and reinstalled. Same error as above. I'm not sure I can use a different database name as I am filling out the wpconfig.php file as instructed by my host.
Try a different $table_prefix in wp-config.php.
Though don't know why you'd have to resort to that if you deleted the database tables.
