Thanks for the tutorial! However, when installation folder is removed and I go to Site or Administrator the results are only a blank page. I was looking forward to something more :-). Any help is appreciated! -Henrik

Same here... Some errors occurred while populating the database: Table 'Gabriel1.jos_extensions' doesn't exist SQL=INSERT INTO `jos_extensions` (`extension_id`, `name`, `type`, `element`, `folder`, `client_id`, `enabled`, `access`, `protected`, `manifest_cache`, `params`, `custom_data`, `system_data`, `checked_out`, `checked_out_time`, `ordering`, `state`) VALUES (600, 'English (United Kingdom)', 'language', 'en-GB', '', 0, 1, 1, 1, '', '', '', '', 0, '0000-00-00 00:00:0 etc... etc...

I get to step 4 :Database when installing Joomla, but get this in red:

message Some errors occurred while populating the database: Table 'mynewwebsite.jos_extensions' doesn't exist SQL=INSERT INTO `jos_extensions` (`extension_id`, `name`, `type`, `element`, `folder`, `client_id`, `enabled`, `access`, `protected`, `manifest_cache`, `params`, `custom_data`, `system_data`, `checked_out`, `checked_out_time`, `ordering`, `state`)

What can I do, to fix this issue?
