 * When I run the installation WP asks me for admin user name and the password for
   the user. When installation is finished the screen goes light gray with a small
   white box in the middle of the screen and nothing more happens.
 * When I try to login as admin it doesn’t work (I remembered the UID and PWD, be
   sure ;-)) Looking up the tables in PHPMyAdmin I noticed the user-table ist still
   empty. Shouldn’t there at least exist the admin user the sytem asked me for?
 * THX in advance!
 * Regards,
    Stefan

 * Hello Stefan – you might need to check with your hosting company to see if they
   can get access for you… or you can access your Cpanel and find out what the issue
   may be there.
 * WordPress also has a wp-config.php file that is pretty important in these issues.
   Check out [http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php](http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php)
 * Hope that helps you –
 * Cheers!

 * Well, there is no hosting company, because I tried to install it on an XAMPP-
   installation under Windows 7 (64bit).
 * I downloaded an older version of WP (namely 3.1) with which the installation 
   worked and updated it afterwards. So it’s a problem of release 3.91. and also
   3.7 (tried it too).
 * Regards,
    Stefan
