As I had no luck updating to 1.7, and next to no support from our webspace
provider, I had a go at the latest 1.6 version.
It installed next to near flawlessly. I am deeply impressed. I just wanted
to express my respect and admiration for what this software has come to, in
improved functionality and accessability. When I take a look at some bits of
the code, I see how much has been cleaned and tightened up. What a robust
piece of work! I am at awe at this software machinery put at my disposal.
Congratulations on a work well done. It is a ride I am looking forward to
follow during the next years to come.
Best wishes,
Morten :-)

Thanks, I gratefully pick up all I can get!
I have no access to the MySQL or PHP log files - our wiki is installed on
a
remote server/webhotel.
I would love to dig around more on my own - but I am not a programmer, and
have next to little knowledge of the inner workings of MySQL or PHP - I'm
a
total noob when it comes to server configurations, even while I learn
every
bit of the way.
I'm just curious if this is normal. Wouldn't I receive a proper failure
message, if/when the install script fails?
Would installing MW 1.7 require more PHP memory than previous installments
of MW, which installed perfectly even still complaining about the PHP
memory-limit?
One thing confused me about the install-script - the bottom forms asking
for
a root user. Do I leave those fields blank, or prefilled with the "root"
and
the "-" ? I am not a root user, but the database user needed exists and
nothing more should be neccessary?
Best wishes,
Morten

I have no access to changing the memory limit of PHP - previous versions
of
MW installed smoothlessly even if this failed, still generating a
localsettings file and working fine.
Check the PHP and MySQL error logs to find out why it's stalled.
You've been presented with one clue so far...
