 * dear BLog,
    I’m really new to word press and programming, i have seen some great
   websites created with wordpress, so i’m trying to make my website again using
   word press. i have buyed a mySQL for my website, i have downloaded and unzipped
   the wordpress, i have changed the config with the databse information i’ve got,
   and then i have uploaded every single file onto my site, (there are also the 
   old files uploaded) but when i go to /wp-admin/install.php and i fill the 2 text
   area with my admin and password, when cliking the CONTINUE TO SECOND STEP button
   nothing happens, i stay on the same window. i’m using safari and mac os x panther
   by the way.
 * Any help will be really apreciated. it really urges me to change the website 
   asap.
    (www.noname-magazine.com kind of old looking amateur platform) Looking
   forward to be hearing from you guys, cheers, Johann velit —- milan -italy

 * Sometimes even though you don’t see anything after clicking on the proceed to
   step 2 the blog does get installed. Check your database using something like 
   [phpMyAdmin](http://codex.wordpress.org/phpMyAdmin) to see if the [database tables](http://codex.wordpress.org/Database_Description)
   got created and populated.
 * In that past, I’ve seen people hang up because of problems with their mailer…
 * Also look at some of these threads:

 * I am a bit confused by the mention of admin and password _before_ the install.
