    When trying to install I get this page below. I think I did every step correctly, but I have to go to ftp://ftp.mysitename.com/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php to instal and it just gives me a whole bunch of nothing. Can someone point me in the right direction? I am with web.com

    WordPress
    Error: PHP is not running

    WordPress requires that your web server is running PHP. Your server does not have PHP installed, or PHP is turned off.

    PHP 5, Python 2.4, Perl 5, MySQL 5 is what my host says they have. Any clue how to go?

    To install WordPress, you will have to browse http://mysitename.com/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php not FTP. Also, if http gives code instead of executing the page then there is something wrong with PHP configuration on the server.

    angelanoel appears to have resolved this topic in a separate topic.

    Of course, no solution beyond “I fixed it” was posted by angelanoel, but the replies by esmi and ClaytonJames point to the source of the problem.
