  • Hi Ardy7201,

    If this is blank VPS you will also need to install MySQL. Do you know what operating system you have installed?

    Kind regards

    i think mysql was installed with kloxo.

    after click wordpress folder, wordpress starting to install. but stuck at database host..

    Hi Ardy7201,

    Kloxo is a control panel to manage your VPS, I’m pretty sure i wouldn’t come bundled with MySQL (But, I have never used it).

    Also your domain name doesn’t appear to be resolving for me.

    Kind regards

    Hi Ardy7201,

    I’m afriad I cannot use Team Viewer to help you diagnose your issues. If you would like to post any updates here i would be happy to help.

    Kind regards

    Ardy, Pipe is totally right: Please don’t post links to files on this forum, especially executable ones. It’s a danger to the rest of the users.

    Quick overview on what you need to know about what’s happening:
    You don’t have a mysql server on the same server as your web server.

    So, you need to login to your VPS control panel, look for a databases option, and create one. On that page (somewhere) it’ll have an IP or hostname. Sometimes it’s a public IP address and domain, sometimes it starts with 10.x.x.x

    What ever that is, once you create the database, enter the hostname/IP into your wordpress setup.

    @ardy7201 – these forums only offer help here, sorry. Please also do not post any kind of access information to your site or local computer. If you need more help, perhaps you should consider hiring someone – you can post a job listing here: http://jobs.wordpress.net/
