Installation failed

Trying to install fails with an error that //install_base_.php could not be found, regarding to owa_lib.php line 411

I changed owa_lib.p at line 401 from:

//$class_dir = strtolower($class_dir).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;^M

$class_dir = $class_dir.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;^M

to:
//$class_dir = strtolower($class_dir).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;^M

$class_dir = $class_dir;^M

and the installation finishes without any further problems

Not sure thats the true fix. sounds like OWA doesn't know what kind of database you are running.
Where you running OWA standalone or embedded (under wordpress, etc.)? If standalone can you check to see if the db type is set in the config file?

This was a standalone installation.

I edited the config file and put mysql in it, but with or without that in the config file the error was always the same. Even without the config file the error was the same.

I tried to copy the install_base_mysql.php to install_base_.php but then I recognised that the path to the file had two directory separators "//" instead of "/" before the install_base_.php.

So I changed the owa_lib.php as mentioned above, copied the config file, entered the values in the config file and had no problems at all installing it.
