I am trying to install a new instance, and it is the same error as described above.
I have installed WordPress about 5 or 6 times, various versions, all on Yahoo webhosting, and it wasn’t until this 2.3.1 version that this error cropped up.
You can use Yahoo’s utility (which I hate as it is on version 2.02) and it works correctly that way on this same server.
I know I have it all set up correctly…seems like a bug with WordPress version 2.3.1 on installing…
I am going to try to install a known version I got to work before and see if it works, if it does, version 2.3.1 has issues.
