Indeed this works …

I am running:
-Windows 2008 Standard edition (full)
-PHP 5.2.5 with FastCGI
-MySQL 5.0.45
-WP 2.3.2

I don’t see why WordPress has difficulties installing. I have installed Joomla and Invision Power Board without any problems.

Thanks for the code!

I was to quick with posting …

I found the sollution that worked for me here
.

People are questioning why CGI (FastCGI) is used. I don’t know, but Joomla and Invision Power Board are running fine this way. So why not with WordPress?!

I am running into the same problem.
System specs:
-Windows 2008 Server (standard), complete installation
-PHP 5.2.5 non-threat-safe
-FastCGI to run PHP
-MySQL 5.0.45

I haven’t solved it yet. But what does work a little bit, is:

– to install WP somewhere where the installation doesn’t endup in missery.
– Then backup the database (keep it as clean as possible)
– Restore the tables into the database you wish to use
– Now open the index.php in you browser and it should work.

This is not perfect, some friends were complaining about errors they receives (couldn’t open pages etc.)

I think this indicates that the install process of WordPress 2.3.2 is not able to create tables in the database.

Hope any one has a sollution for this matter??!!
