I cannot reproduce this on Linux (Chrome, IE9 and Firefox 20).<br>
<br>
The only thing I noticed and didn't realize before and is different
then other installations I've seen on Linux web packages is
page2.php.<br>
<br>
'MySQL Database Account Set up page'<br>
<br>
You HAVE to fill in a valid mysql user, and the user HAS to have
rights for the db created on page1.php. NO user account is created
for you.<br>
<br>
Is someone prepared to send me a sequence of screenshots displaying
the issue by PM?<br>
<br>
The database.php should have been created after pressing 'Next' on
page2.php<br>
<br>
There were issues with previous install packages if you didn't
finish the install and restarted it. That almost never worked
correctly. But that is fixed in the installer you report as being
used. (this particular problem was fixed in SVN rev874)<br>
<br>
If you still have the setup folder, check the contents of
database.txt. It should NOT have been modified. It has to be the
same as the original one from the .zip.<br>
