I just installed the e107 system into my website, but for some reason, the install.php function won't begin. I was wondering if there was anything i might have done wrong. Here are the steps i did.

I downloaded the most recent e107.zip and unzipped it into a seperate folder on my desktop.

Then i used flashfxp to upload all the files onto the htdoc folder in my website.

Afterwards i changed the chmod settings for the install.php and e107_config.php to 777.

Finally i went to <my domain>/install.php. I understand that it is suppose to bring me to the install page but i just get a blank page. Is there something i did wrong, or is there something i can do to possibly change a file to make this system work?

Thanks for any advice in advance.

Do not chmod the files. See if that works. Even if your host requires you to chmod the files (which they should change!) you only have to chmod e107_config.php to 666.
777 and 755 are meant for folders. 666 and 644 are meant for files.

Just adding ; you are sure there are no corrupted uploaded files?

As Moc already explains only config needs a change for chmod when installing ( re-chmod back to 644 when done)

done? : your files into the a) www (open doubleclick) than : b) htdocs directory BUT : theres also this : [-link-]

so ait uses different settings (maybe different for linux vs windows?
