Hi,

I'm trying to install Drupal 6.3. After renaming default.settings.php to settings.php and setting CHMOD properly the installer allows me to type the database name / user / password.

However, after providing these correctly and clicking save the page reloads with empty fields and the install process won't continue without producing any warning.

Why is this happening? I tried on two separate Linux installations.

Don't rename default.settings.php to settings.php, copy default.settings.php to settings.php, then change the permissions on settings.php. The installer requires access to default.settings.php for the installation to complete successfully, and will fail if it's missing.

I'm trying to install Drupal 6.3.
I created a copy settings.p from default.settings.p
And when I try to install drupal 6.3 I recive the message:

Deprecated: Function ereg() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\ccy11\includes\file.inc on line 893

Can you tell me what I do wrong?
Because I installed version 6.2 and 6.x-dev without problems.
I'm from Peru (sorry my english) and begineer using Drupal.
Thx
