    Hello:

    I am trying to install wordpress on an existing site. I have tried to install but am only getting a blank page.

    I am also getting the index page, which I thought I deleted but still shows up.

    Here is my site

    http://www.zebracorn.com/blog

    Pleeeese help.

    Thanks.

  • You are missing the WP index.php file from that installation!

    OK, Thanks.

    I just put it back. Getting the same results.

    you have something going on thats abnormal. turn on debugging in your wp-config.php, by adding this to it:

    define('WP_DEBUG',true);

    then load this page, in your browser:

    http://ww.zebracorn.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php

    i say abnormal because clicking on certain PHP files on your site im not seeing the expected results — theyre ALL blank. and while some should be blank, not all should.

    the directory listing you see is a problem that can be fixed easily, also..

    Yes, all of the pages were blank. I did what you said but they are still all blank.

    Could it be what I put on my config page? For instance; I used “admin” instead of “WordPress_admin”. Could that be the problem? Should I type the entire db name?

    I would paste your server error log and WP error_log.here to see if any an anomalies exist.

    Check your include path for PEAR (PHP Extension and Application Repository), as I’ve googled an incident where blank pages were showing up because the include path was incorrect.

    When I installed on a GoDaddy server I needed to keep the wordpress folder structure intact. I tried “words” first and got the same result you have. I also needed an .htaccess file before my pages would show. I hope that helps.
