Install WP on pre-existing DB (2 posts)

    So a little mess up on my side whilst switching hosts left me with my site's files gone, forever. I wasn't too bothered really as I was currently redesigning the site anyway, I had the mySQL database safe and working on my new web host's servers, the issue now is that I can't install wordpress now. I don't know why this happens but when I enter all my info pointing to the working database in wp-config.php, when I go to my site it just gives me a blank white page. No code, not even a hint of any error, I've checked lots of times for any errors, whether it be in the table itself or in the wp-config.php file. I've uploaded WordPress twice now and it still does the same. Can someone explain why it's doing this and how I can fix it please?

    Thanks in advance :)

    you may have to check with your hosting provider to see what the exact error is first.
