aprilr,
Have you tried my suggestion above yor post, increasing the amount of RAM php is limited to.

First time trying WordPress and I get the same problem using Apache on Linux. It’s not that the page isn’t found it’s just that no response is sent when you try adn view the page. IE makes this looks like the page isn’t found.
Anyway looking at teh apache logs seems to reveal the problem.
This error message appears:
Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 92160 bytes) in /home/surfing_monkey/public_html
/wordpress/wp-admin/upgrade-schema.php on line 322
So it seems that WordPress is a real memory hog and wants more than a default apache/php install allows (or atleast mine).
So if you edit the php.ini file found on linux in the /etc directory and chane the memory limit.
Mine said:
memory_limit = 8M
and
I change it to:
memory_limit = 10M
Now it seems to atleast make somthing appear when I go to the install.php page.
Hope that helps someone.
Dan
