After investigation I noticed that on my hosting web server the default handler 
is set to PHP4, not PHP5. I have set the proper handler in .httaccess and the 
installation succeeded.

Anyway, it would be nice if the installation script checked at least the basic 
system requirements, because non-technical person may get totally lost.

Normaly the php version will be tested. I will check this for PHP4 
installations!
