can't access login.php / config.php looks empty

[klaus]

I installed 4images1.7 . I am running w2k and iis5.
All tables were created successfully without errors.
I uploaded config.php into the 4images directory.
When I try to access "login.php" I get forwarded to "install.php" again.
Are there any parameters in php,ini that should be changed?
I set the rights accrdingly.
The config.php looks very empty though.
Can you think of any reason why the installer didn't write anything in this file?
How should I proceed?
Do  I need any extensions installed in PHP4.2.3? Right now I only have GD installed.

Thanks very much for looking into this!

it was just my own stupidity. the right for user were ok but not for the folder. changed it to write and it worked immediately.

I have the same problem and I don't know what to do next. I have CHMODed all the files and load the config.php file in but whenever I go to index.php. It will redirect me to install.php .
It says
Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home/swish/public_html/smss3n5/4images/config.php on line 25
on my config.php why????

Do I have to chmod anything else?
