Description

When installing Moodle at the admin/index.php stage, I run into the following sequence of events.

GPL License - All fine, moves on to next page
Current Release Information - All fine moves on to next page
Setting Up Database - No warning, all fine, moves on to next page
Setting Up Module Tables - No warnings. The page does not fully load, there is not next button.

When I go back to admin/index.php after this problem, it presents me with a blank screen.
The only way to start again is to wipe my SQL database and start installation again from the GPL license screen, but I ran into the same problem.

The attached htm file is the output I get before it stops working. I haven't attached the picture files for the page, just the raw HTML file.

Thanks for your help.

I found that when the same Moodle package I install using XAMPP over linux (SuSE) everything is ok and my new Moodle installation working well
Why that ? I don't know. But I'm happy

Can you please add these lines to the comfig.php
$CFG->debug=2047;
$CFG->debugdisplay=1;
and retry the installation. You might get some error messages indicating source of the problem.
Thanks

The installer was significantly improved in 2.0, it should be giving more debug hints now, thanks for the report.
