   Hello all,

   Installed all Word Press files by FTP, seemed to install 100%

   Am trying to see the login page for
   http://www.freshchristmastrees.co.uk/wp-login.php

   All I get is my browser asking what program I want to open it in.

   What am I doing wrong?

   Regards
   james

   Check if your PHP files are executable...

   chmod +x *.php should fix it if they are not.

   Some hosts such as PlusNet make php files not executable by default, they supply a script fixphpperms.sh that you can use to fix it.

   Hello,

   I have this exact same problem and am struggling to get it to
   work. I followed your fix up to the "Played around in Plesk in
   the setup mode and ticked the PHP box"?

   I did change all the php files to executable using chmod but it
   didn't seem to have an effect.

   Can you give me some further info on plesk ? I took a look on the
   web and it seems a bit more than I need or understand for that
   matter.

   Thanks
   David.

   dbethune it is normally better to start your own thread instead of tying to one that is months old. You will normally get better attention describing your problem rather than saying it is the same.

   That said :^), what is your URL?
