Text fields disabled on install page

Permalink
I'm having a strange issue trying to install C5.
It seems the text fields for inputting site name, database info etc are disabled.

checking the install page source I see this:
<label for="DB_SERVER">Server</label><br/> 
<input id="DB_SERVER" type="text" name="DB_SERVER" value="" disabled="1" class="ccm-input-text" />


and it's the same for the other input boxes. The host is running PHP 5.3 so I'm assuming this is the problem.

Is there a fix for this? other than switching to php5.2..

Have you checked your file permissions.
On Install C5 will check they are all correct before letting you install, hence the greyed out box.
You should see a little stop symbol towards the bottom of the list on the left hand side of the page, also a ? which when clicked will tell you what files need their permissions changing.

Hope that helps

You are totally right.. For some reason it seemed to me like all the dependency checks where OK, but they were not.

Thank you for helping me see that blatantly stupid mistake!
