  • 1. Your table prefix should not be wp_. Click here to change it. ( * wp-config must be set to writable before running this script.
    * the database user you’re using with WordPress must have ALTER rights)

    2. “admin” user exists.

    3. The file .htaccess does not exist in wp-admin/.

    I feel like I’m reading a different language, I don’t even know where to begin.

  • 1) change chmod of wp-config.php to 666 and try the change – chmod back to 644 for security

    2) “admin” is the standard user name – you can change this in the mysql database with phpmyadmin in your host control panel

    3) an .htaccess file can be put in the /wp-admin folder to keep bad guys out. I’ll warn you, however, most folks really screw this up – do some reading on it 1st (google)
