I have a server at one.com and i just can't get elgg working. It just dont install. I have tried the "auto" install thing, inserting my own values in settings.php, fixing .htaccess, but nothing works.
They fill all the requirements.
When i try to reload the page/save my database settings i just comes back to my root-index and cant use either install.php or index.php or anything.
(This is my tree: root/sites/elgg/.... )

For reference, Installation and Troubleshooting
I don't know what the auto install thing is.
There should be two pages for install. The first is the database page. After you fill in those values you click save or whatever that button says. It should take you to the settings page. At the top of the settings page should be a green box that says your database creation was successful. You should check that your database creation was successful by using phpMyAdmin or whatever your host provides. Then fill out those values and click save.
1. Did the database creation happen successfully?
2. Did you have any permission problems with the creation of settings.php or .htaccess?
3. What happened when you clicked save (or whatever the button says) on the second install page?
The first two pages should not require a .htaccess or a work mod_rewrite as far as I know. If one of them isn't configured correctly at the end of the first two pages, you'll just get a page not found after you click save.

Hi
I have just installed on one.com
You need to do some changes to .htaccess, try have a look at mine below.
I use the rewriteBase because my Elgg installation is in a subdirectory, comment it out if you installed in the web root, or change it to match your subdirectory.
Have fun...
