Hello from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
I have just tried to install silverstripe, and I´m getting the following error:

Building database...
Warning: file_get_contents(http://test.3d-arg.com/db/build?from_installer=1&flush=1) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! in /www/silver/install.php on line 246

Loading initial content...

I have installed SilverStripe CMS successfully!

--
database user is root, so it shouldn´t be a problem when creating database.
all files belog to www-data... so that shouldn´t be a problem either.

Any suggestions?

Best regards,
AiZ

Chances are, the web-server was unable to visit test.3d-arg.com itself for some reason.

To finish the install:
* Visit http://test.3d-arg.com/db/build?flush=1
* Then visit http://test.3d-arg.com/db/populate

That should fix everything.

The latest installer isn't affected by this sort of issue. We put a fair bit it of work into making it more reliable.
