 Priority:  normal           |   Milestone:  Awaiting Review
Component:  Upgrade/Install  |     Version:  3.0.1          
 Severity:  normal           |    Keywords:

 Steps to reproduce:

 1. Download and extract to Windows Server 2003 with IIS6 (fast-cgi, PHP
 5.3.3)[[BR]]
 2. Create a wp-config.php file pointing to an empty database or any
 database with no tables matching the selected prefix.[[BR]]
 3. Create a new virtual directory on IIS site example.com named myblog,
 pointing to the newly created wordpress directory, hence accessible as URL
 http://example.com/myblog/[[BR]]
 4. Point your browser to this (root) URL (you will '''not''' be
 redirected), and the WordPress install page (step 1) will appear[[BR]]
 5. Fill out the form and hit Install WordPress[[BR]]
 6. Tthe browser will show URL http://example.com/myblog/install.php?step=2
 and status 404 Not found is shown.


 I think that the error is in step 4. You should be redirected to
 http://example.com/myblog/wp-admin/install.php


 If you in step 4 direct yout browser to http://example.com/myblog/wp-
 admin/ the installation will go on without this error.

 Tested with Firefox and Chrome. Works fine on IIS7.
