Open include/common.php
goto line 56 and change

error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);
to
error_reporting(E_ALL);

then try install again

If your people come crazy, you will not need to your mind any more.

Ok.. then what? I made the change, same result, no additional information. mysql is running and I can use mysql administrator to get to it. Apache is of course running as well as php.
