First I tried like the article suggested:
Method II (With URL change) – that is following the list for the steps I had not done previously
Result Server error

Second I tried like the article suggested:
Method I (Without URL change) – that is Installing wordpress in root folder, moving EVERYTHING from root folder into subdirectory called wordpress and creating a .htaccess file in root folder
Result: Server error

I have no idea why I had these server errors. I only tested on my static home page (unfortunately) so I don’t know if I would have had the same error on other pages.

Third I tried (short version because there was a lot of fiddling):
Reinstalling WordPress and Backup, Copy Htaccess and index.php to root and making some changes
Result: I could access things by going to mysite – but when the page came up it showed mysite/wordpress
So I went in to general settings and left the wordpress site as mysite/wordpress and changed the site URL to mysite.

Seems as if things are working now.
