install on windows

Seems install on windows doesn't work -- complaining about file permission on last step on permission reversal -- inc and periodic to be 755 instead of windows default 777, even change them to read only, doesn't help. And if I click skip, then the whole installation failed -- anyone can help?

Thanks,
Jack

You dont need to worry about file permissions with Windows, only Linux

but the installation failed -- I mean I got the the last step on permission reversal, and then click on skip to skip the file permission stuff, then the whole installation failed.

Hello.

I have already written in someone's blog that the default WAMP settings don't allow to use short open tags for PHP scripts, i.e. "<?"

You need to enable this possibility in php.ini and also enable "display_errors" to be able to see the errors explanations where you normally see blank screen.

So, specify the following in php.ini:
short_open_tag On
display_errors On
