As told on a post before the advise of the support is totally WRONG. If 
you install TYPO3 it detects if the database is set. If NOT it starts 
the install mode. There you provide username, url, password, database 
etc. So hacking the install code manually is definetly the wrong advise!

So copy a clean version of class.tx_install.php to your server and check 
  typo3conf/localconf.php!

Peter.
