Hi,

I have a problem when installing Serendipity 0.7.1. After I have uploaded it to my webserver, I got the first screen which says "Serendipity is not yet installed. Please install it now." Afterwhich, I click on install, it goes to a second page (in purple, blue and white) which shows "Serendipity Administration Suite" and "Serendipity installation" and nothing appears beneath that.

Any idea what I did not upload or do? Please help. Thanks in advance.

Look at the HTML source of that page - does it stop in the middle of somewhat, without the </html> closing tage? If so, that is an indicator of a PHP Fatal Error which doesn't get displayed because display_errors are set to Off in your PHP Configuration.

Did you extract the full paths of Serendipity to your host, with all subdirectories?

Do you have an URL to look at it?

Garvin.
