   I’m trying to install wordpress (2.8.4.) on my (free) server, but no luck! I did everything that I usually do and more, but nothing!
   Here is what I did:
   a) I made a MySQL database on my server, copied username a2676221_myname, password, hostname mysql9.000webhost.com, database a2676221_name to my wp-config.php, like I have done it many times on a localhost;
   b) I copied all the wordpress files on public-html using SmartFTP and on the second try using file manager;
   c) I tried to run the install by going http://mydomain/wp-admin/install.php

   And this is where things go wrong – instead of Wordpress screen I get http://error.000webhost.com/

   Could you please smart people help me!

   P.S.

   I have already done the same moves 4 times, I’ve looked in FAQ, forum and searched Google, but all I found was that I’m doing everything the way I should! This is quite annoying!

   Thank you!

   remove the host default index.html from the root so wordpress' index.php will work
