    Hi ChristiNi,

    This is really getting frustrating! I decided to start again from scratch – I dropped all the tables from the MySQL database, in fact I created a NEW database, deleted all the existing wordpress files from the ‘blog’ folder on my website, edited a brand new wp-config.php with all the new database values, uploaded the wordpress folder after renaming it ‘wordpressblog’, ran install.php successfully and then tried to log in. Guess what? Exactly the same issue! Now I get a directory listing titled ‘Index of /wordpressblog/wp-admin’ and the page URL is ‘http://www.synergies.co.za/wordpressblog/wp-admin/’
    There is an .htaccess file in the root of my webserver, the contents of which look something like this:

    # -FrontPage-
    IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*
    <Limit GET POST>
    order deny,allow
    deny from all
    allow from all
    </Limit>
    <Limit PUT DELETE>
    order deny,allow
    deny from all
    </Limit>
    AuthName synergies.co.za
    AuthUserFile /usr/www/users/synergv/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
    AuthGroupFile /usr/www/users/synergv/_vti_pvt/service.grp
    DirectoryIndex index.html

    I have a feeling this could be causing the problem, but I have no idea how to change it.

    Any ideas?

    Also, when I use PHPMyAdmin the site URL is listed as http://www.synergies.co.za/blog which is the correct location.

    Additionally, there is no .htaccess file within the wp-admin directory.

    I have tried to remedy the issue by the use of the define(‘RELOCATE’,true); statement in the wp-login.php file. However I still just get a page with a directory listing after login. The page title is Index of /blog/wp-admin and the URL is http://www.synergies.co.za/blog/wp-admin/ -the WordPress files ARE located at this location. It is almost like instead of loading the correct page, it just gives a directory listing.

    I have noticed that if I click on the ‘Back to blog’ link on the login page, it takes me to http://blog.synergies.co.za/blog/, a different URL – Where is WordPress getting this URL from?

    This is becoming very frustrating. Surely there is a simple fix, or else a way to uninstall and start over?

    Reading the installation instructions carefully, I realised that I had not placed the wordpress folder in the ROOT of my website, but in a subfolder – so i moved it to the root. Now when I log in I get this: The requested URL /blog/wp-login.php was not found on this server.
