    I created a sub domain off the main domain. I FTP up the files to the folder of the sub domain and ran the install script but it will not install.

    Will WordPress install into a sub domain with a path like below?

    http://blog.maindomain.net/wp-admin/install.php

    or can it only be installed in the main or folder inside main?

    Thought I get an answer from someone by now. I think I know the answer, I just need a conformation on if it can or can not be done.

    Yes, you can install WordPress in any domain, subdomain, or subdirectory you want to.

    What part of the installation was failing? Was there an error message?

    Yes there was. I was getting a page not when I ran the install script.

    Sorry I left off some of my response. Page Not Found. So I guess I'm will remove the data base and reinstall.

    If that's the case, then either the install.php file is missing, you mistyped the URL, or you uploaded WordPress into the wrong directory.
