1.3.8a cannot get past licence acceptance

[jmouse]

I've decided to bite the bullet and move up to 1.3.8, so I tried a fresh install first just to check it out.

When I start the install process, I accept the licence (with pleasure - top job folks!) but the screen after that fails to load - I get an 'Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage' message.

Any ideas? should I be making sure any particular directory writeable or anything? I haven't ever had any problems installing 1.3.7 but am obviously doing something dumb now!

--------- more info ------------
Just tried the install again in Opera to see if the error message was any different.

No error message this time, but on the ../zc_install/index.php?main_page=inspect page I just get a blank page.

Have you tried re-uploading the files? Perhaps there is one missing or corrupted.

yup - actually reloaded twice as I went to 1.3.8a on the second attempt.

All seemed to upload ok.
