Hello, I see this is quite a common eror, but I'm sorry, I have to ask you how to resolve it, as I'm clueless why the installation script returns just an empty page.
This is the result after starting setup on my webserver (to which I have e-mail access only =) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MediaWiki 1.3.8 PHP 4.3.3: ok
* Warning: PHP's register_globals http://php.net/register_globals option is enabled. MediaWiki will work correctly, but this setting increases your exposure to potential security vulnerabilities in PHP-based software running on your server. You should disable it if you are able. * PHP server API is isapi; unknown; using pretty URLs (index.php/Page_Title), if you have trouble change this in LocalSettings.php * Have XML / Latin1-UTF-8 conversion support. * PHP is configured with no memory_limit. * Have zlib support; enabling output compression. * Found GD graphics library built-in, image thumbnailing will be enabled if you enable uploads. * Installation directory: D:\www\company\sitename.com\www\bazaznanja

Notice: Undefined index: SERVER_ADMIN in D:\www\company\sitename.com\www\bazaznanja\config\index.php on line 312
------------------------------------------------------------------------ I can fix those two warnings by substituting the values in config/index.php but it doesn't matter... After I press "Install!" I get just an empty page.
Any ideas what to try out? Server is w2k3, IIS6
As a start try the trivial patch in http://bugzilla.wikipedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736

I've added 'flush();' but there were no changes. You mention on the patch page "HEAD (1.4) does not have this issue." Could I try this version out ? BTW, you also mention it occurs if dbname is 'wikidb' and if it does not exist. My database cannot be named 'wikidb' as I have only one database, named 'racunovodja'.

Even with the flush issue, the installation succeeded for me on Windows 2000 Advanced Server despite nothing being displayed, i.e. a LocalSettings.php was created in the config folder, and a database was set up.
If you're prepared to try Apache instead of IIS (as Apache has had much more testing for mediawiki), have a look at the relatively easy procedure in http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_on_a_stick The resulting LocalSettings.php file and database should be usable in IIS or Apache.
The database name is irrelevant to the issue.
A pre-beta 1.4 is available via anonymous CVS from sourceforge. If that sentence made no sense at all, and all else has failed, email me and I'll send you a snapshot.
