This happens alot with my clients, Only when they are using PHP5 though oddly enough, have them switch over to PHP 4.4.3 and install works, then they switch back over the 5 if they need to. Also happens when the dont enable write permissions to that file.

Check 'read b4u post' below - we need the info so we are not guessing your versions.
