i followed the the insturctions and double checked my paths and searched this site but i still get this error on the 2nd install screen
Fatal error: Failed opening required 'system/databases/mysql.class.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /pub/home/semtsi90/htdocs/system/lib-database.php on line 90
this is my entry in the config file
$_CONF['path'] = '/pub/home/semtsi90/htdocs';
$_CONF['path_system'] = $_CONF['/pub/home/htdocs/'] . 'system/';
$_CONF['path_html'] = $_CONF['/pub/home/semtsi90/htdocs/'] . 'htdocs/';
$_CONF['path_log'] = $_CONF['/pub/home/semtsi90/htdocs/logs/'] . 'logs/';
$_CONF['path_language'] = $_CONF['/pub/home/semtsi90/htdocs/language/'] . 'language/';
and on the first install page
Hint: The complete path to this file is /pub/home/semtsi90/htdocs/admin/install/install.php

This is wrong: $_CONF['/pub/home/htdocs/'] - that's the name of a variable, you should not change it.
Just leave all the $_CONF[something] alone. You only need to edit the line that (orignally) said
$_CONF['path'] = '/path/to/geeklog/';
(as you did). The other paths will then be picked up automatically.
This seems to confuse quite a lot of people, so we tried to make it more clear in the config.php for 1.3.6rc1 ...
bye, Dirk
