    Ok I just started with a new host today. I uploaded everything fine the first time but wordpress would only show as… //mywebsite.net/wordpress
    I don’t want it to be under /wordpress, I would like it to show up when someone goes to the main page.
    So I tried re installing wordpress without the main folder and only using the files and subfolders included.
    Install went fine but now nothing shows up on the main page even though the setup ran. Any suggestions? Thanks.

  • Having the same problem, it appears, but from a reinstall.

    I was able to get into the install panel, do that, then get into admin. I tried creating an initial test post, but nothing is showing up on the main page. I’m still able to access admin, but I note that it is missing the nav bar for different admin features too.

    Still same problem. The site is http://www.eblips.net. I upgraded from 2.0.1 to 2.0.4. I can access the admin panel, I have 2 posts that carried over from the earlier version. Neither of the posts are visible, and when I do ViewSource, there is nothing on either page.

    Anyone out there?

    Possibly related question — is .htaccess file required? It doesn’t seem to be generated by my host (laughingsquid.net). That’s the only thing I can think of right now that could be causing the problem.

    Not resolved! Not for me anyway!

    In case anyone is still listening, I tried creating a .htaccess file on the server. That threw WP even more out of whack. I got a 505 error on trying to access the main page. Also couldn’t get into admin.

    The LaughingSquid error log said .htaccess is not supported, or something to that effect. But laughingsquid says they’re perfectly set up for WP.

    When I deleted .htacess, I was able to get back into admin fine.

    Here’s the readout from the Error Log:

    The “functions” file is in wp-includes, so that can’t be the problem. Load_template seems to be a problem tho…

    see, I think I’d reupload a fresh copy of 2.0.4. It looks like you have some garbled files. Make sure your FTP utility (if you’re using FTP) is smart enough to upload the .php files in text mode, not binary mode (the good ones do autodetect just fine).

    I’m having the same issue with GoDaddy host. I am able to access the admin panel fine, however the index page is entirely blank. I’ve reuploaded the entire 2.0.4 and having the same issue.

    Anyone figure this out? I’m going crazy trying to figure this out.
