Installing concrete5 on wamp server

Permalink
It stops on "Installing dashboard".

When i open a new tab and try to reopen link there is a message "There are already 166 tables in this database. concrete5 must be installed in an empty database."

I tried deleting the database and installation but the same thing happens every time.

Something is not right, obviously!

I have over two dozen sites running with MAMP.

I could give you a step by step guide if you want.

You read this how-to first and see if it helps.

This sounds like a timeout issue - the install script never finish.

It might be a very low max_execution_time in php.ini or you are on a very slow connection to your server (or the server itself is really slow).

I have noticed this issue with several forum members, I have not confirmed it but it seems like almost all are using wamp 2.2 32 bit, is this true for you as well?

Aside from changing your max_execution_time to 180 in php.ini,
you can also trying resetting your default store in my.ini.

1. Click on the WAMP console and navigate to open my.ini in MYSQL.
2. Scroll down to [mysqlid]
