Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: install.php hangingHmmm. So, I….
– dropped all tables from the database
– cleared the website of all files
– downloaded wordpress 3.0.1 again from wordpress.org
– extracted files into website folder
– modified new wp-config.php as needed
– ran page localhost/testsite/wp-admin/install.phpThis time, I entered a new username and password. Same result. After about 10 minutes, processing seems to have stopped, and the browser window is showing the WP logo, with the url still showing
“http://localhost/testsite/wp-admin/install.php?step=2” And, as before, the home page appears to be working.Any thoughts? Suggestions?

In reply to: install.php hangingReinstalling…..
Please clarify for me: when running install.php, am I supposed to enter the username/password I already created for the database, or should I enter a new username/password? Who is this user I’m creating?

In reply to: install.php hangingAny reason to re-install (delete tables, get fresh WP download, change config, etc) if it’s showing a functioning site? Do you still think the install didn’t complete?

In reply to: install.php hangingI guess it worked. The sample site is running.
So, would install.php have created the user if I had not already created it? It would have been helpful to know that in advance, if it’s true. (I spent quite a while trying to learn enough mysql to get the database and user in place.)
