_user_password_dynamic_validation() error while installing Drupal 6.15

I have faced a big problem while installing Drupal. I am receiving following error message

[Sun Feb 28 10:00:20 2010] [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

To resolve above issue we need to manually update the table values

From shell run following commands.
root@theperfectarts.com[~]#mysql -u USER -p
Enter your  mysql user password password
Or you can also

root@theperfectarts.com[~]#mysql
root@theperfectarts.com[~]#use drupal_databasename

Then run following sql statement

root@theperfectarts.com[~]#UPDATE system SET status = 1 WHERE name = ‘block’ OR name = ‘user’ OR name = ‘node’ OR name = ‘filter’;

Now try to install drupal 🙂
