UPDATE: Under Database Name in install page, it's written "The name of the mysqli database your Drupal Commons data will be stored in. It must exist on your server before Drupal Commons can be installed." My database environment is MySQL. Is this causing the issue? I've been able to install standard Drupal to same environment with no issues.

-------I'm trying to install drupal commons but seem to be stuck on the database configuration page. I keep adding the proper database name, creds, etc, but the page reloads when I click continue. I receive no warning and at backend I don't see my database being populated.

Any suggestions appreciated. I tried a fresh reinstall, but kept running into same issue. :(

Have you ever installed any

Have you ever installed any Drupal installation? I would recommend checking out the Drupal installation guide here: http://drupal.org/getting-started/install

Commons is just like installing a regular Drupal installation.

I was having similar issues

I was having similar issues with The Acquia Drupal stack installer for Windows (DAMP), but increasing php memory limit in htaccess took care of it. I'm assuming having same issue on hosting environment where it's running out of memory. I haven't bothered to look into it since experimenting with DAMP for now. Btw- thanks for helping out with my questions.

Yep good call. Thee is a

Yep good call. Thee is a system requirements and install guide in the wiki section, I believe. You can increase the PHP memory in your settings.php too - it's usually done there:

ini_set('memory_limit', '128M');
