   I just downloaded the latest wordpress. I am trying to installing it on yahoo webhost. i've changed the config file database host name to 'mysql'. When i run the install.php file i get a blank page.
   If i changed the host name to 'local' i get error message saying check the username/password and that server is not down.

   can some one please help. I cant see any errors what so ever on the install.php, just blank page

   What is limit of PHP memory on your server? You can obtain this information by uploading phpinfo page with following contents:

   <?php phpinfo(); ?>

   Probably your server has less memory for php_memory. Also, check the error logs for your web site if there is any option available within your hosting control panel.

   1. Try adding this line to your wp-config.php file:
   define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');
   
   2. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini
   If your line shows 32M try 64M:
   memory_limit = 64M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (64MB)
   
   3. If you don't have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:
   php_value memory_limit 64M
   
   4. Talk to your host.

   Thanks guys.
   This is an extract from the phpinfo()

   max_input_time -1 -1
   memory_limit 20M 20M
   open_basedir no value no value

   I am assuming that this is not enough? is that correct

   likely not - you only have 20M
