If your server currently runs MySQL 4.x when you run INSTALL.txt you will get the following error:

```
Fatal error: Uncaught exception Exception with message Query error: Access denied for user 'typ0dev'@'localhost' to database 'INFORMATION_SCHEMA' (SELECT COLLATION_NAME AS name FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLLATIONS WHERE CHARACTER_SET_NAME='UTF8' ORDER BY COLLATION_NAME) thrown in /var/www/cms-2.doublespark.eu/system/libraries/Database.php on line 599

#0 domain/system/libraries/Database.php(546): Database_Statement->query()
#1 domain/typolight/install.php(505): Database_Statement->execute('UTF8')
#2 domain/typolight/install.php(1033): InstallTool->run()
#3 {main}
```

You need to upgrade from MySQL 4.x to 5.x as 4.x does not use the INFORMATION_SCHEMA method.

on another note:

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL THE Typlolight TEAM
