Here is my setting on the server

PHP Version 5.4.3 and MySQL5.5.24 and nginx/1.2.0

I got "page not found" error in the middle of install of D7.17. First time I didn't have below @drupal setting. I can only only see drupal logo at homepage. Other pages are 404 error. Second try, I inserted below setting to nginx, which is recommended from this link http://drupal.org/node/976392 in the INSTALL.txt file in the package.

 server {
     listen       80;
     server_name  example.org;

     location / {
         root   /path/to/drupal;
         index  index.php;
         error_page 404 = @drupal;
     }

     location @drupal {
         rewrite ^(.*)$ /index.php?q=$1 last;
     }
}

I started the intall and selected 'choose profile' -> 'choose language' -> 'verify requirement' -> 'setup database' then when I 'save and continue', it jumped out and showed me

Page not found The requested page "/" could not be found.

Same as when I had no @drupal setting on nginx.

But, this time, when I tried to enter

http://xxxxx.com/user

I can open it.

http://xxxxx.com/?q=user/password

I can open it too.

http://xxxxx.com/?q=user/register

Blank page.

The database tables only got created with 31 tables, same as when I didn't have new setting. It should contain 49 tables in this Drupal 7.17 installation. Obviously something stopped in the middle accidentally.

Anyone knows what's going on?

This is a notorious problem in the Drupal community with a name "31 tables" that you can search out quite a few threads. I still cannot solve this problem. But I succeeded in using drush to have installed D7. But then I ran into another problem. I cannot log in with the admin password I set during drush-install now. – Jusfeel Mar 7 at 6:52
