Mac OS X local installation
-
I’ve installed PHP, MySQL all running fine.
I’ve created a database named ‘wordpress’
This is the wp-config.php file setttings that I use:
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress'); // The name of the database
define('DB_USER', 'root'); // Your MySQL username
define('DB_PASSWORD', ''); // ...and password
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); // 99% chance you won't need to change this value
I ran the /wp-admin/install.php and it runs fine till step 2 where I’m hesitant. It gives me http://localhost as recommended installation web address. I don’t know if this is correct. I also tried http://localhost/~myusername/wordpress
Whatever web address I try the installer gets stuck at Step 3. It displays the WordPress logo and the title Step 3 and nothing else. Where could the problem be? Is it the web address or is it something else in my settings in the config file?
Thanks! Ivan
