    Hi,

    I installed the latest version of wordpress on bluehost using simple scripts but everytime I go the wordpress admin url to login it gives me 'the page cannot be found'

    Can anyone help me with this?

    Something might be missing in the install. Try uninstalling and reinstalling. Make sure you installed it and are checking it in the right spot, too. If you recently transferred, you might still be waiting on nameserver propagation.

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice and I get the same error each time. I used the simple script to install on bluehost, so I didn't really set up anything, It's automated. Mostly 'cause I'm a newbie...

    The link is:

    http://69.89.31.160/~snackkit/blackunicorn/wp-admin

    Any thoughts??? Thanks!

    Looks like Wordpress thinks your website is located at http://www.snackkitty.com/blackunicorn/wp-login.php, instead of the temporary url. If you edited your url from within the WP Admin panel, it will throw things off.

    You probably didn't/don't have your DNS pointed to your webhost server. Try pointing the nameservers for snackkitty.com to your webhost (just ask them for the appropriate ones) and then reinstall. I had that happen once when I first moved over to my new host, and then Simple scripts was smart enough to fix it.

    was this issue ever resolved? If so can you let me know what u have to do? I am having the same problem, I'm on bluehost using simple scripts and I get 'the page cannot be found' message. I am a complete newbie so I have no idea what to do. Any help would be appreciated.

    contact bluehost and tell them to fix it - it is there script after all.
