Does the server have all the requirements?
http://ww.wp.xz.cn/about/requirements/
yes. before, i was getting a “not connecting to database” error… and then, the install page simply disappeared, and I can’t get it back (it is uploaded to the server)
Delete everything and try a new install?
tried that! created a new database… deleted old files, and started from scratch. I’m at a loss. *shrug*
Hm, anything in the server’s error log?
error log? where can this be accessed?
Well, it depends on your host. I’d suggest starting by checking your FTP server for any log directories, and if none are found, then move on to any control panel your host provides you with. If neither are accessible or provide said logs, then e-mail them requesting the server’s error logs for your account.
hmm… the issue appeared to be two ‘ quote marks ‘ in one spot
now i am getting this: Error establishing a database connection
a step forward?
Probably, yes.
That means one or more of the 4 pieces of info entered in the config file is not correct. That simple 🙂
done! a long time ago. a simple version of the site is now set up.
