    Hi there, I just heard about this script so I am cheking it out.

    I followed all the stepts to the instalation, and it gave me my password and everything, then i tried to login in but when I did, it sent me to a listing of:

    Index of /wordpress/wp-admin

    so i can see all the files in the directory, when I tried to access the index, It wants me to login again, and the same thing happens.

    I already dropped the database once, and tried again, same thing, also when i go to

    localhost/wordpress/

    I keep getting the same "introduction - installation guide"

    Can someone help me? I would really apreciate it =)

    Is it a local install or hosted?

    Just installed Wordpress locally on Windows XP/mysql 4.0.24/apache 2.0.5.4/php 4.3.11 and having the same problem.

    1. If you see the listing of the directory - it means your setup doesn't recognize index.php as a valid index. Try to fix that, and we'll see from there.

    You were absolutely right.

    I seems that you have to add "index.php" on the httpd.conf file in:

    #
    # DirectoryIndex: sets the file that Apache will serve if a directory
    # is requested.
    #
    # The index.html.var file (a type-map) is used to deliver content-
    # negotiated documents. The MultiViews Option can be used for the
    # same purpose, but it is much slower.
    #
    DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.php

    Its weird because the main index for the website is called index.php and it works just fine.

    Well thank you so much. ;)
