Magento – Can’t install Magento

configurationerrorinstallation

I'm a beginner in Magento. Have tried to install it. At first, make a Database "magentotest" with username-> "root" and no password.

The problem I got is when I press continue button it starts loading and reload the current page. Does not go to the next page. Please help.

For my other PHP project I have used alias, at the very beginning I have tried the same, but also that case suffers from the same problem.

Kindly help. My recently Magento unzip file location is "C:\wamp\www\magento\" kindly help. Here is the screenshot.

Magento needs to be accessed through a domain name to behave correctly. In your screenshot it looks like you are using localhost, so I'm guessing this may be the cause of your issue. Try adding the following entry to your hosts file and then visit magento.local in your browser instead of localhost:

127.0.0.1 magento.local

In Windows the hosts file is located at: c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts You don't have to use magento.local either. You can choose whatever domain name you like. localhost.com, magento.dev, etc...
