Thread:Project:Support desk/running Mediawiki installation; on Connect To Database page I get an Apache server restart

Microsoft Windows XP Apache HTTP Server 2.0.64 PHP 5.2.17 MediaWiki 1.19.2 MySQL 5.1

I run the installation script. It reaches the "Connect To Database" page where I enter host "localhost" (also tried 127.0.0.1), Database name: wikidb (already created), username: wkikuser (already created), and password. When I select the "Continue" button, I get an error message "Apache HTTP Server has encountered a problem and needs to close". The installation script has a "Problem Loading Page" error and I cannot continue. Cannot find any log file that contains useful information.
