I am installing 6.8 on mysql 5.0 hosted on godaddy.com with linux.

I enter the database information including the remote server that godaddy uses and press continue.
The database tables get created and I get the install screen showing set up database with a green check mark.
The pointer goes to Install Site and hangs.
I have verified that the tables did get created.

Any ideas?

Thanks Jeff

open settings.php try setting $db_url manually. If the tables are created this may work.

It appears that the install processed did update the settings.php file, so it got that far.

the above is a link to a search here on drupal.org looks like there are a few things to sort through based on the amount of threads listed.

Thanks for the info. It turns out that my company's firewall was blocking web info coming back from the install program. Everything is working as it is supposed to.

I met the same problem on my machine. I fix it by adding the site address http://127.0.0.1 and http://glserver(my site name) to Internet Setting => Safe => Local Intranet. I works. Hope it helps for others also.
