    funny thing. my web host provides a web tool that installs automatically wp 2.0 which works great. when i try to install or upgrade to wp 2.2 I can’t get through.

    i run the install.php and I’m being taken to a html page with a bunch of errors, incomplete GET functions and it says ‘You appear to have already installed WordPress. To reinstall please clear your old database tables first’, even after I uninstalled the old wp 2.0, deleted the old mySQL database and created a new one.

    thoughts?

  • Hi,
    I installed WP awhile back but on another host and this time, I’m getting the following errors when I try to open wp-config.php

    Warning: main(): Unable to access ../../wordpress/wp-config.php in /www/business/5382/wp-admin/install.php on line 8

    Warning: main(../../wordpress/wp-config.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /www/business/5382/wp-admin/install.php on line 8

    Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required ‘../../wordpress/wp-config.php’ (include_path=’.:’) in /www/business/5382/wp-admin/install.php on line 8

    Now I followed the installation instructions about uploading the contents of the directory into my root folder (inserted the correct names in the config file first), as WP sits on its own domain, but as you can see, it keeps trying to find WP in ../../wordpress/wp-config.php in /www/business/5382/wp-admin/install.php when there is no wordpress directory.

    creaplus – you should have received an email from me. Also sent a followup email.

    not yet. I ALWAYS have problems installing software! I look forward to your illumination.

    Okay creaplus install completed. Followed directions as stated at Installing WordPress. I use FileZilla to upload files.

    thanks much. you guys are the bomb! you didn’t get any errors at all? I also used filezilla to upload…damn

    creaplus–I didn’t use your files, I created new database and uploaded new set of files.

    Please mark this as resolved.
