BUT…..
PLEASE REMEMBER TO COMPLETELY
REMOVE THE INSTALLATION DIRECTORY.
You will not be able to proceed beyond this point until the installation directory has been removed. This is a security feature of Joomla!.
and
Your configuration file or directory is not writable or there was a problem creating the configuration file. You will have to upload the following code by hand. Click in the text area to highlight all of the code and then paste into a new text file. Name this file ‘configuration.php’ and upload it to your site root folder.
you need to delete Installation directory! i suggest u not to delete but rename, since delete sometimes takes some time, but rename is very fast,
just rename installation folder to installationX.



and Click in the text area to highlight all of the code and then paste into a new text file. Name this file ‘configuration.php’ and upload it to your site root folder.



ok its done.now you can enter your control panel thru http://y0urname.net63.net/administrator/
