Since it’s a new install, DROP or FLUSH your DB tables with the prefix wp_ and run the install again.

I’ve tried flushing the database several times but it doesn’t make any difference.
Thanks anyway

I’ve managed to deal with my problem thanks to http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/phpmyadmin/
A way to bypass the bug is this.
Replace line 390 in index-install.php before install or on a reinstall.
It will input YourPassword as the password.
$user_id = wpmu_create_user( ‘admin’, $pass, $email);
Change to:
$user_id = wpmu_create_user( ‘admin’, YOURPASSWORD, $email);
Change the code back after install for secuirty.
Note: If you got stuck on first page or it bypassed database fields setup, like mail server. Open upgrade-schema.php from your wp-admin directory and find.
add_option(‘admin_email’, ‘you@example.com’);
add_option(‘mailserver_url’, ‘mail.example.com’);
add_option(‘mailserver_login’, ‘login@example.com’);
add_option(‘mailserver_pass’, ‘password’);
and put in your information.
