 * I just installed WordPress with Simple Scripts on Fatcow.com. It was working 
   fine until I tried to move my site teacupsandcouture.wordpress.com to the new
   site by importing the .xml in batches of 1MB (I have 10 MB to upload). Then I
   get the Five minute installation page that gives me the following error below
   when I fill out the info. The bottom of the page says Success.. but I try to 
   log in and it directs me to the same Five minute installation page.
    Please help!

 * I am sure what you did:
    -did you try to change the site URL?
 * -or did you try to move to a new server?
 * -or did you try to give the wordpress its own directory?
 * -or did you try to move the wordpress within your own site…

 * I am trying to move my old blog teacupsandcouture.wordpress.com to my new site
   teacupsandcouture.com … I followed the necessary steps to have the domain point
   to a folder at my server. I also already installed WordPress with Simple Scripts-
   so I am already installed, but I still get the Five minute installation Page 
   every now and then while I’m trying to move the .xml files to my new WordPress
   by importing under ‘Tools’.
 * I didn’t change the URL
    I am moving it to a new server, but I’m going through
   my already installed WordPress site. I did give WordPress its own directory on
   my new server I am going from the mydomain.wordpress.com to a self-hosted mydomain.
   com site.
