Installation not creating database (6 posts)

    I'm trying to do a fresh installation if last night's build. I have the database, and a fresh copy of all WPMU files in the root of the blog directory.

    The first step of the installer comes up fine, I set the form to use sub-directories, enter the database information, set the server address, enter the blog title and email, and click submit.

    I get a short page that just says: Creating Database Config File: DONE and nothing else (well, logo is there before the next). Most importantly, NO database tables, no email, no errors in any of the logs that I can find (checked Apache, and Postfix logs).

    Any Suggestions?

    You went through all the steps, even clicking the big "next" button? ad no errors after that either?

    I suspect this is because of http://trac.mu.wordpress.org/ticket/165

    BTW, does WPMU have an automated test harness?

    The changes that affect kses.php were introduced in revision 761, so try using Revision 760.

    or...

    revert kses.php back to it's pre-revision 761 state.

    Does the MySQL user you have created have permission to CREATE in MySQL? How about access to the database? I just have mine set to ALL permissions.

    I just re-ran the process with the newest nightly build, and still no-go.

    The DB user has access all privledges (no grant option) on that database. Just to be sure I logged in to the database as that user and created a junk table.
