    Ok heres my environment:

    windows server 2000
    apache
    php5
    MySQL 5.1
    using MySQL Administrator

    Created the wordpress database and wordpress user giving them all the permissions.

    I moved the wordpress files to a directory in my htdocs folder called wordpress.

    I went to http://localhost.localdomain/wordpress/index.php

    I get the normal page I filled in the database information and then i click submit and I get a page not found error.

    No clue why it won't work.

    Thanks,
    Ben

    Could be a lot, really. Best way I foudn to track it down is to hack the install file and insert a bunch of echo commands right before each step, so they are displayed on the screen.
    Then at least it will tell you where it dies.

    Also, are you using virtual subdomains? Did you set it up for that?

    They are all there. It was a fresh install from the zip file.

    The error isn't page can not be found it is page can not be displayed. It's an error 500

    Did you do what I suggested above?

    How about a fresh zip from trac?

    Other people have been able to install just fine, so you have to narrow down what's happening on your box.

    So its a 500 error - anything in the Apache Server logs?
