Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Domain name problemI have installed debian again from scratch and followed different instructions at:-
http://www.debianadmin.com/install-wordpress-in-debian-etch.html
This time it doesn’t work at all. I am sorry if I am being stupid but I install wordpress using apt-get install wordpress so it ends up where it does. It’s not like me to give up, but I am on the verge of it.
The following instructions worked:-
http://linux.justinhartman.com/Wordpress_Installation_on_Debian
but caused the problem where I have to access it at mdbboyd.me/mdbboyd.me
Can you tell me where in those instructions I have to change them to get it working? I am about to start yet another fresh debian installation.
Thanks
Mike

In reply to: Domain name problemI have just done a new debian installation and am ready to start from scratch. I can’t see how to change the instructions I have been following to do what I want. It’s so frustrating, I am so close to doing what I want to achieve! Can you post a link to a set of instructions that will help?

In reply to: Domain name problemCan you tell me which lines in:-
http://linux.justinhartman.com/Wordpress_Installation_on_Debian
I have to change so that http://www.mdbboyd.me goes straight to wordpress
and so that http://www.mdbboyd.me/blog does?
I haven’t decided which of the two options I want to go with yet.
Thanks

In reply to: Domain name problemAh thanks agag2, I am starting to see what the problem is. Having followed the instructions I did there was a link called mdbboyd.me in /var/www. It linked to /usr/share/wordpress. If I change that to ‘blog’ it means that http://www.mdbboyd.me/blog works, BUT I can’t login to ‘Admin’.
I think I will install again as you suggest and either use mdbboyd.me/blog or find some way to make http://www.mdbboyd.me go straight to wordpress.
Any suggestions would be most welcome.
Thanks
Mike
