Hey Gluse,
You should not ever run into the default WordPress installer. Mostly likely a setting in your database didn’t get set correctly. The WordPress fucntions.php file makes use of a function called is_blog_installed() For some reason on your system the checks are not passing. Here are few things you can try:
1. Repair your database. Both before and after trying to create and install a package.
2. Disable all cache plugins as as they may make reference to function calls such as wp_cache_set which can be both persistent and non-persistent see:

3. Open the wp_options table and look for a value in the option_name column that says ‘siteurl’. This value should be the new url you are trying to install to.
Hope this helps…

It helped: the reason why it’s not passing that checks it’s that the new databse is empty. This was a big surprise cause i got a positive feedback from the install.php script.
Hey Gluse,
Interesting! Never seen that before! I’ll add that as a validation task. Have you tried to running the script again? If you want to send me your package and install script I can find out what the issue might be…
