At first, server details:
Server OS: Linux (yes, I know a bit generic but I know at least they run a x86_64 of it)
Server Version: Apache (again, no idea what version, I'd say it _might_ be 2.2x)
PHP Version: 5.2.10
MySQL Version: 5.0.58
Is pdo_mysql installed: Yes
Browser: Mozilla Firefox 3.5.2
The server is a shared hosting enviroment which has at least Mod_Security and Suhosin enabled. Tho they claim they have suPHP enabled, I doubt it as I still need to change the file permissions and the site won’t go into a HTTP 500 if a php_flag is set in .htaccess-file.
On to the problem itself:
When I try to install with correct database details, the installation will display an empty summary page (Basic package of 2.0.0-Beta-3) or just stay on the database connection information page.
When trying to install with wrong/incomplete database details the following summary page gives the following results (this is from the advanced package):
* Checking PHP for zlib dependency: OK!
