Attemping to setup database...
Checking to see if the database is already in place. If you see a database query error here, ignore it... Done
Creating default database setup... Done
Table 'serendipity.serendipity_config' doesn't exist Done creating database
Attemping to write .htaccess file...Done

Anyone can tell me what i should do. Thank you.

Did you use a tool like phpMyAdmin and see if the serendipity_config table was created? Which database (MySQL or PostgreSQL) are you using and which version of it?

I had tried mysql-4.0.18-win and mysql-3.23.56-win. Both had the same situation. I used phpmyadmin to see the db. Table serendipity.serendipity_config wasn't be created exactly.

But other tables were created just fine?

If yes, there may be an error in the SQL statements for creating the table. I could then show you where to edit the s9y-file to output the code we are sending to MySQL so that you could try it manually and see what errors you get

I can't see any table in my serendipity db. I think it just a sql statement error. I tried to install another version 0.5-pll yesterday. It worked fine. Could you tell me where to fix the sql statement error at 0.6-pll version? Thank you, garvinhicking!!

Thanks garvinhicking. I had resolved this problem. I tried to use s9y_200405191337.tar and it was ok.
