So after frustrations with the Windows installation I tried to upload all files to a Linux host and start the installation process. Reading the installation manual I followed the steps in order - first step is going to the viart directory using web browser. After I did that I got the default redirect me to install.php (so my URL would now show
http://mydomain.com/install.php) - but it was just a blank screen! So I looked at the next step which was to set the chmod to 666 on file /includes/var_definition.php - oh,maybe that should have been step 1... So I looked in includes and found no such file - how can I set permissions on a file that does not exist (who writes these instructions ;[) - so I created a new file - installer will write into it what needs to be written anyway - set permissions to 666, and then reloaded the previous URL - I got the redirect to install.php again, but also got a blank screen back! Any ideas what went wrong with that scenario?
