 * Hi
 * I’m trying to reinstall after having to delete a site after it was hacked. I’ve
   tried installing WP using a one click install and then clearing out the db and
   uploading the old database
    but when I go to use the site it takes me to the 
   install page.
 * What am I doing wrong here?
