GameNews on localhost

hi there

I am trying to install gamenews on localhost.

I am using mac. Installed xamp successfully and also installes joomla on my localhost successfully.

I downloaded the gk_gamenews_quickstart_J!30.zip package. Unzipped it and copied the folder to /xampp/htdocs/gamenews

when I type in localhost/gamenews I am prompted to go through the installation process. I follow the steps but when I go to the last page I click on Install then the database gets created but then nothing happens.

When I revisit localhost/gamenews/ I am again prompted to go through the installation process.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Diyan

Please try to re-download package and clean database and start again. I've tested this packages on MAMP server and there are no problems. Please only make sure that your server configuration pass all Joomla! installer requirements.

Can you please elaborate on this?

I downloaded the package yesterday - 01/04. Is there an update to it?

Also this happens if I try to install it directly on my website not localhost.

Could you upload package to server and then send me all details necessary in installation process ? I'll try to install template for you. Did you try to run clean Joomla! form joomla.org ?
