    Hi Everyone,

    I uploaded all the wordpress files to my server, I configured my MSQL data, I have done everything to be done and has not been able to install wordpress in my domainhttp://www.abilderlarosa.com/wp-admin/install.php

    My hosting is 1and1, help please, I'm new to this

  2. It's probably your .htaccess file (and how it's not specifying PHP 5).

    See:

    Thanks for the info, but I honestly do not understand how to do it, someone can solve my problem.?

  5. Google 'How to create a .htaccess file' and there are thousands of directions out there. This is something you're going to need to learn if you want to run your own WordPress site.

    You are, literally, making a file with the name .htaccess in the same folder as your wp-config.php file on your server.

    a .htacess file is a file you can set limits on etc eg upload limit. not really 100% sure of your problem because ive not even installed this as of yet. but from what i gather all you need to do is create a file called '.htaccess' using notepad or any other type of text editer. NOTE: you cant actually put .htaccess as your file name when you save it in notepade you will need to save it as htaccess and then add the '.' when you upload the file via ftp.

    the links seem to have the same problem and they have solved it. now you know how to make a .htaccess file you should be able to fix it.

    I've done everything I say and really nothing at all, now I get this:
    Internal Server Error
    The Server Encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and Was Unable to complete your request.
    Please contact the server administrator, and inform them webadmin@kundenserver.de of the time the error occurred, and anything you might Have Done That May Have Caused the error.

    More information about this error May be available in the server error log.

    It isn't an .htaccess problem. With 1and1 you usually have to tell the server, by adding add-type and add-handler in the htaccess file, that you want php files processed by php5 and not the default of php4. This is the case on 1and1 shared hosting packages, I dont have a vps on 1and1 so cant tell.

    As wordpress still uses php4 (http://codex.wordpress.org/Hosting_WordPress) you don't need to do this. I have five wordpress blogs on 1and1 shared hosting (business and professional). Only one of them has problems after recently upgrading to wordpress3.

    I suggest you try wordpress 2.9.2 and see if that works. As for my issue with v3, it only occurs when calling /wp-admin/edit.php

    Just got 3 working, adding

    AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
    AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php

    into my htaccess. Not something I have had to do with earlier versions of WP

  12. essexboyracer - While WordPress requires PHP 4 or higher, sometimes hosts install versions of PHP 4 that have issues, and you have to force declare PHP 5 to fix them. Really, the host should upgrade their PHP 4 install, but so long as the PHP 5 declare works, it's probably better this way.
