Do you have error messages in your php error logs?

No - not a single notice (( Error reporting = E_ALL
Could it be some memory limit trouble?

Do you have one set? If so try raising it to 16 megs.

I had this problem as well. Try changing files and directories permissions to the lowest possible protection. (That's not the correct way but helps to check whether the forum works at all...) Check "GLOBALS" file, too. Also do read README after the extraction - there are some differences comparing to the docs!. Search intensively through these forums how to get to the required permissions. I guess you made some mistakes when extracting and/or transfering files like me ... Smile (e.g install.php do 'binary' , not 'ascii' tranfer). Esp, if you transfer from Windows machines to Linux. If you have access to the shell, use wget or cvs. Check if php compiled with zlib option before downloading the correct archive.
