    Ok so it is installed properly as far as the config being generated and it does say it is installed.
    However seems rather short.

    Please give me a link . Also post the htaccess file.

    The htaccess is:

    # Original
# If you modify this file then change the above line to: # Modified
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   # Certain hosts may require the following line.
   # If vanilla is in a subfolder then you need to specify it after the /. 
   # (ex. You put Vanilla in /forum so change the next line to: RewriteBase /forum)
   RewriteBase /dev
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php\?p=$1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

    The please try again message is generally because the transient key was outdated. A second attempt should fix this issue.

    You should enable debugging by adding $Configuration['Debug'] = TRUE; to your /conf/config.php file. Then visit /utility/update in your browser and report back the result.
