   Hi,

   I installed WordPress but I can't open the index page with http://HOST/wordpress, because it will show the wordpress installation instructions. I need to do http://HOST/wordpress/index.php. How can I fix that ? (here's my wordpress if you want to see what's the problem http://thebenke.zapto.org/wordpress)

   your webhost doesn't have your server set up to look for .php extensions as defaults. You either need to ask your host to add "index.php" to the list of default pages, or (if you have Apache on your server) open up your .htaccess file and put this in there:

   <Files .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>

   DirectoryIndex index.php
