 * Hi everyone,
    My installation isn’t completeted. I traced the process by putting
   logs, and as I got the install.php script executes and creates the tables in 
   the database and after that sends an email containing my username and password,
   but then after that when it calls “upgarde_all” function and the consequent function
   calls it stops at the following block in “add_option” function which is at \wp-
   includes\functions.php The block is:
 * if( !$wpdb->get_var(“SELECT option_name FROM $wpdb->options WHERE option_name
   = ‘$name'”) ) {
    $name = $wpdb->escape($name); $value = $wpdb->escape($value);
   $description = $wpdb->escape($description); $wpdb->query(“INSERT INTO $wpdb->
   options (option_name, option_value, option_description, autoload) VALUES (‘$name’,‘
   $value’, ‘$description’, ‘$autoload’)”);
 * Can anyone please help me figure out what possibly coud have made this problem.
   
   Thanks, Nima Dezhkam.

 * To make it more clear, in “install.php” after the email being sent, the function
   call of “upgrade_all” (this function is defined in “upgrade-function.php”) leads
   to call of “populate_options” (this function is defined in “upgrade-schema.php”),
   and then it leads to call of “add_option” (this function is defined in “functions.
   php”), and it leads to call of “get-var” (this function is defined in “wp-db.
   php”).
 * This is where it stops. In this line if “get-var” function:
 * if ( $query )
    $this->query($query);
 * Any help is very much appreciated.

 * Problem Solved. I followed the execution of the installer to find the problem.
   To resolve the problem (avoiding a reference to NULL) I changed a line of code
   in function “query” of “wp-db.php” file as follows:
 * [old code=]
    $this->col_info[$i] = @mysql_fetch_field($this->result);
 * [new code=]
    if($this->col_info){ $this->col_info[$i] = @mysql_fetch_field($this-
   >result); }
 * The version of MySQL I’m using is 4.0.24
    and the version of my PHP is 5.0.4 
   and the version of my WordPress is 1.5.2
 * Regards,
    Nima Dezhkam.
