Hello,

I'm trying to install the quickstart package of the template on localhost (wamp) and the installation process keeps returning 1 step back...
I never had any problems installing Joomla on wamp (ver. 2.4, php 5.4) including 3.2.

I saw your documentation for this issue, all configuration in my php.ini are correct:

- display_errors is off
- all magic_quotes are off
- didn't quite get the configuration.php method, tried that and got an error (also couldn't find "prefix_users" table).

Tried using Firefox and Chrome (there are no adblock extensions) - same thing.

I'll appreciate your help.

The last step - installing database tables ,etc., returns eventually to prev, step/screen.

That's the whole screen display.
It appears that all the data & settings are missing.

You need to check the logs - it looks like incompatibility issue with WAMP

Never had any problems with Joomla installations and wamp is well configured (I've been using it for years).
I see in the logs (apache_error.log) lots of errors from the 'installation' & 'libraries' folders...

Please past them here, but not all...
1. Load first step and fill all necessary data.
2. Clear logs
3. Go to step 2 and to step 3, wait as it goes back to step 2
4. Paste here all php errors that shows.

Yes absolutely, never have or had any problems before.
I've been working with wamp for years and it's configured correctly.
I've checked the 2.5.16 quickstart package and it's installed perfectly (all recommended settings are optimized) , so I"m guessing it has something to do with 3.2 quickstart packages...

Thanks

Please do the test. Download Joomla3.2 from Joomla site:
http://www.joomla.org/download.html
And try to install it, even if you are 100% sure it will work.
Also please check if it gives same php errors in logs.

@Robi76 - I have downloaded and installed quickstart without any problems.
The only idea I have left is to increase sql run timelimit and script run timelimit in your WAMP configuration.
Also it can be realted with max_allowed_packet in mySQL configuration, for more details please look here >> http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/ ... large.html
Php upload_max_filesize might also be an issue.
Our template uploads big chunk of informations and on some systems limits just prevent it from happening.

@feastus - it doesn't seem like related problem. In your case it seems like you are uploading files to wrong folder, or some strange server configuration redirects you somewhere else.
I also can't access:
http://www.spaansevlieg.net/administrator
and that means there are no Joomla installation files in that directory.
