Bug Description

I'm installing Xibo server on Ubuntu Server. Everything works fine until it comes time to set the xibo_admin password. After I submit the password, the next page says "Xibo Installer" and nothing else. Looking at the page source reveals the expected HTML up to the line "<h1>Xibo Installer</h1>", but then it abruptly ends there.

The original bug description was what I wrote before I knew what was causing the error. Since then I dug into the code and figured it out (my database password contained an apostrophe).
