Hi Stefan,

Maybe try to create the DB first and install Xibo by entering the existing DB information.
It worked for me as I had the same bug.

Cheers from Switzerland,
Alex

Try to check your server's error log to see if there's some information about your issue.

Hi alex,

first - thanks for your help. Suddenly it works and I dont know why exactly. But now I have another problem. The installer has finished as it should and told me to to follow the link to login. But if I try to open the page, it still tries to open the install.php which was deleted at end of the install process i think

I had the same problem.
I installed Xamp 1.71 (indicated in the Xibo's wiki)... it worked!
