Alright, here’s a shot in the dark. I tried for another clean install and found that the wordpress directory from the previous attempt (likely the first) can’t be deleted. Every time I try to delete it I get the following: “550 /webspace/httpdocs/wordpress/: Directory not empty”. Every deletion attempt for any subdirectories results in the same despite the fact that they are all empty.
Could this be affecting/corrupting the installation of files from these clean installation attempts?
why are you trying to delete files that we are trying to make show up?
This is fast becoming another wasted thread — if you want help from ppl, everyone has to be on the same page.
its like the case of the hand not talking to the arm.
Ive asked several questions that havent gotten answers. Im off to play poker.

FYI
I have had this problem in the past upgrading and it has always been because of folder and file permissions. some servers prohibit the running of php scripts if they are wide open. I fixed my install by setting the three “wp-” folders to 755. (they were 777)
