 * If the permissions on your server don’t allow you to automatically create a wp-
   config.php file, you can do it manually by just renaming wp-config-sample.php
   and filling in the proper information.

 * I just did so, but getting a 500 error when I run install.php. What should permissions
   be CHMODed to.

 * It’s probably not a permissions issue – i’m getting the same errors, even when
   creating the config file manually and chmoding everything to 777.
    I’m getting
   this error from step 1: SQL/DB Error: [Table ‘wordpress.wp_options’ doesn’t exist]
   SELECT option_name, option_value FROM wp_options If i ignore it and go on, it
   all blows up on step 3 with a load of bad queries and duplicate messages. The
   blog seems to work, but i gotta wonder if the db was set up properly. This is
   on OS X 10.3 (Panther), php 4.32, mysql 2.23.49, installing 1.01. I successfully
   installed 1.0 (no errors) on a different machine with the same configuration.
