 You're sure there are no errors/exceptions at all in the 6000+ lines of logging which setup generates? Not *all* of that logging
remains visible in the wizard scrollbox, but it *is* stored in a file called setup.log.

I'm assuming you downloaded the full binairy distribution of 6b1 from the opencms website?
(I ask because another way to get this behaviour is to install the small war file resulting from an 'ant war' which has no
examples included)

Could be that something is stuck in your database, or you left the war file in the webapps dir.

Greetings,

Frans
