You should check the apache error log. It may have some information why you got that white screen.

No, it ain't the same.

We noticed that Apache cancelled the installation because it exceeded the timelimit.
We tried to change it, and we installed it, but not without errors. The Kunena installation tried to create some MySQL entries which didn't exist, and that resulted in several errors, and the installation was useless.

Unfortunately this is a very common issue on Joomla 1.5. The installer is very slow and packages as small as 300k can easily time out.

The work around for this is to set the php timeout variable from default 30s to something like 120s. (etc/php.ini)

The very same effect can be accomplished by adding the following line into the index.php file of your backend:

/administrator/index.php

right after:
Code:
define( '_JEXEC', 1 );

add:
Code:
set_time_limit(120); // or higher - if timeout still occurs increase to 300s

Hope this helps!

As i said before, we already tried that, and we did manage to install Kunena, but with alot of errors because Kunena tried to create a lot of MySQL tables which didn't exist.

So the Kunena installation was useless :(
