Can't Get Wordpress Working

I've installed v5.3.3, and put WP v3.0.1 in www. I've created a database and edited wp-config.php. I've gone to localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php, but it never loads.

What's wrong?

When I try, access.log says:

127.0.0.1 - - [13/Aug/2010:22:40:02 -0700] "GET /wordpress/wp-admin/install.php HTTP/1.1" 200 -

There's nothing in the error.log about it. The browser just tries to load for a long time, then stops with a blank page.

Can you try to change MySQL host from "localhost" to "127.0.0.1" ?

Hello,
I'm having the same problem. Can you tell me what file the setting needs to be changed in?

Thanks,
Phil
