Hello All,

I am in the process of installing 2.3.1 on my host. I entered the MySQL host address and the username and password continue. The installation does not go beyond this point. I thought there might be a problem with the connection and the database username and address. I went back and did a 2.0.18.2 installation which connected and installed correctly.

I am not sure why the installation stalles at this point. My host is running php4 and php5 and I had change the version and ran the installation each time with the same results.

I would like to see a sample of a mainfile which is I can just add the hostname and username and password into to see if version 2.3.1 can connect.

Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jas.
Thanks,

Did you run the checksum? It's possible your download got corrupted.

How do you do the checksum? I thought that might be the case and have done the download for 2.3 and 2.3.1 and ran the install and each stalls at the same place.

Thanks,

Stalles? Is it a blank page?
Did you change anything in the language files?

I have tryed this issue to, but that was my error.
I tranlated the installer and for some reason i made a space after "?>"

Then I got a blank page and could't install

Instructions for the checksum files are in the News Article. Look at the Files Integrity Check.
Optimism is the mother of disappointment.

In the installation file there is a mention of this

define('_CHARSET', 'UTF-8'); in the global.php for specific language settings. Can this stall the install, where the step five window just refreshes once the database information is entered. I have wipe the site and re down loaded 2.3.1 and will check the file structure once the upload is completed.
Thanks,

Checksum completed with no files missing. Re-ran the installation, and stalls at step five with no errors to indicate what is going on.
