Install Issue (?step=2 appended to URLs)

you already defined the problem:

it seems that it’s looking for everything with ?step=2

if this was a successful install, you will need to change your home and site url values to fix that.

This was happening to me also… and I installed several times. While the OPs problem with accessing his site may be resolved (just as I resolved mine), I’d like to know if anyone is working on the install routine that put the incorrect URL into the database in the first place.

I am going to risk sounding like a total newbie. How do I go about changing my site and home url values. I have tried a little digging in the codex but can’t find a direct explanation.

Thanks.

I apoligize, I thought that was some form of example. Not an actual link.

@whooami – THANK YOU!! I upgraded one blog to 2.6 last month. Yesterday I started a new blog on a new domain, and have spent about 8 hours just trying to log into the darn thing. Changed the url’s in the database tables, and voila.
