 * Please can someone help me out here!
 * When I run the install.php file to install WordPress on my local Apache server
   the file simply does not run. I have tested everything by changing the install.
   php file with a simple php test code to bring up my phpinfo(). This runs just
   fine except when I replace the original WordPress install.php file and I go back
   to having the same problem.
 * WordPress 3.0 has had over 4 mil downloads so personally I can’t believe that
   there will be a problem with this file… but everything else is running smoothly
   and I have now run out of ideas as to why the wp-admin/install.php file won’t
   run!!
 * Please can someone help me with this… I’m loosing my hair here…!

 * Try uploading a freshly downloaded copy of WordPress.
