blopa: I got this: “Running initial setup… Success Success Successfully added: http://connect20.magentocommerce.com/community” And then nothing more happen. I tried to acess the site and it give an error =/

At this point the magento installer is executing the mysql queries to configure your DB. This is the longest running portion of the installer and is the reason the magento web based installer constantly fails when installing on DH. I've seen this take as much as 10-15 minutes so I normally just walk away and grab something to drink until I see an error or a success message.

an update… I investigated creating a custom ini file as suggested here. …
http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/1_-_installation_and_configuration/url-not-accessible-for-dreamhost-and-others-using-custom-php.ini

however when I checked the default php.ini the parameter in question was already set to =On. so I don’t think that is the problem

1, 2, 3 and it’s installed! I can’t believe how easy it was! (it’s like those TV commercials from the 80s)

Thank’s a lot for sharing this solution!

Thanks for the install guide. I ran into a few hiccups but its up and running now. Now I just have to get some plugins running.

I'm glad it worked out for you! Any chance you could share the problems you came across? What it an issue with the script?

I spent 5 hours trying various shell scripts out there yesterday and had to give up… all failed at some point.

This worked first time! Many thanks mate
