Below is the error:

The installation can not be completed:

- You chose to install in the main directory of the domain liarsinvitational.com, but there are conflicting filenames, therefore we can not proceed. Following filenames already exist in the main directory of the domain liarsinvitational.com (path="/home/liarsi5/public_html/").You must manually remove these files before proceeding with auto-installation:
robots.txt

Hello mquiaoit,

That means there is a file names robots.txt in your public_html folder and the program does not want to overwrite anything you may want to keep. I have renamed the file to robots.txt.old so you may now install the Joomla. It should go without incident.

Best Regards,
Scott M
