Error message when running install.php

I do believe I’m in the running for the Newb of the Year award. My FTP programme just missed out a couple of files at random, which is exactly what the error code was telling me.Ho hum. Sorry for wasting peoples’ time!

I’ve been trying to install WordPress on a Fasthosts server, but I’ve been coming up with a couple of error messages when trying to run install.php. My wp-config file looks like this:<?php
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘BlogDatabase’); // The name of the database
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘MyUsername’); // Your MySQL username
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘MyPassword’); // …and password
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘213.171.218.254’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value
define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);
define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);with the rest being unchanged from normal. I was advised by Fasthosts that my hostname could either be the above ip or mysql254.
Unfortunately, when I run install.php, I get a white screen with the following errors:
Warning: main(/home/fhlinux183/g/generationminusone.com/user/htdocs/wp-includes/wp-db.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/fhlinux183/g/generationminusone.com/user/htdocs/wp-settings.php on line 100
Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/home/fhlinux183/g/generationminusone.com/user/htdocs/wp-includes/wp-db.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/share/pear’) in /home/fhlinux183/g/generationminusone.com/user/htdocs/wp-settings.php on line 100
I don’t believe I’ve made any silly mistakes, but it’s certainly quite possible. Any advice on resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Teph
