redtruck,
I’m having a similar problem. I uploaded a test like the one above and I don’t get an error message (the root directory on my hosted account). WordPress still gives me an error message though its installed in a subdirectory. I’ve deleted the whole lot at the moment and am about to upload again. Anything else I can try if it still doesn’t work. I am considering binning the lot and using something else. I have an old b2 I could rework already installed if I have to.
