JOOMLA: Install problem with configuration.php

In the pre-installation checklist, you might get configuration.php marked with a NO. Just ignore this and continue with the installation.

Once the installation is complete, copy all the text inside the file configuration.php-dist, and save it to a new file called configuration.php. Open up your new file and copy in the server and ftp information that is shown in the final screen of the joomla installation. Upload the file to the root directory of your joomla installation.
