_user_password_dynamic_validation() while installing Drupal

I faced a problem while installing Drupal in my Fedora 9 box with apache 2.2. I see the following error in my apache error logs [Sun Mar 29 20:04:32 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function _user_password_dynamic_validation() in /usr/share/drupal/install.php on line 710, referer: http://localhost/drupal/install.php? profile=default&localize=true Fix for this issue is, manually update the table values If you are using mysql mysql -u USER -p Enter your password mysql> use Issue the sql statement UPDATE system SET status = 1 WHERE name = 'block' OR name = 'user' OR name = 'node' OR name = 'filter'; Hit Drupal again. Voila the error gone and the page displays.
