Templates & Phrases not importing

I'm installing 2.0 and the installer works fine when editing my database. The installer itself calls a textfile (install_vbarticles_text.php) that contains all of the phrases and templates to import. Unfortunately, this is where my install hangs - or rather, does absolutely nothing.

I'm not sure if it's a file permissions issue. The rest of my forum works fine, and I've even gone as far as chmod-ing the installer files to 777 to see if I can get the read to work. Nothing seems to do it, so I'm rather at a loss as to what to try next. Any insight would really be appreciated. Thanks!

I posted similar at the vbarticles.com forum, but it doesn't seem to be all that busy.
