hi...

i m new to XOOPS and trying to install XOOPS 2.0.13 on my system running php 5, MySQL 4.1, apache 2, Windows XP. While proceeding with the installation steps, i get a blank screen after page 7 where it says Confirm Database Settings. i m providing the follwoing details here:
Database Hostname: localhost
Database Username: root
Database Name: XOOPS (already created in mysql)
Table Prefix: XOOPS


I've read numerous faqs on this site to get it resolved but to no avail. I even have re-installed apache, MySQL and php many times but tht doesn't worked even. Can anyone help me out?

PHP 5 may be the problem:
for 2.0.13 the requirements are:
#
HTTP Server (Apache or IIS) “Note, XOOPS only officially supports Apache”
#
PHP 4.1.0 and higher (4.1.x recommended) Note: PHP 5 may cause a problem until the next release. If you have PHP5 please check the Troubleshooting note.
*
MySQL Database 3.23.XX or 4.xx (XOOPS will have compatability with MySQL 5 in the next release.)


Perhaps since you are working on localhost you should try 2.0.14 RC1 which is PHP 5 compatible.

Also check out the XOOPS documentation site linked on the left - that is where the above info came from
