   I am able to use the control panel but am unable to see the website or preview the website. I am getting the following error:

   Warning: require(./german-car-repair-roswell-ga/wp-blog-header.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/k/i/d/kidsonftp/html/german-car-repair-roswell-ga/index.php on line 17

   Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required './german-car-repair-roswell-ga/wp-blog-header.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php') in /home/content/k/i/d/kidsonftp/html/german-car-repair-roswell-ga/index.php on line 17

   Can someone please help?

   Thanks in advance!

   error says this file is missing
   /wp-blog-header.php
   which may be indicative of others missing

   I got this error due to moving the WordPress installation to a sub-directory but I am not sure what I have done wrong...

   /wp-blog-header.php is there. I moved the whole directory so there should be no missing files...

   I already went by these instructions:

   then best guess is you didn't change the wp-config.php properly
   example
   require('./wordpress/wp-blog-header.php');

   so index.php is in your root directory

   and everything else is in a folder named german-car-repair-roswell-ga

   is that correct?

   No, Rev.V

   I want the whole WordPress install nested in a folder named german-car-repair-roswell-ga. Currently all of it resides in there.

   Is that an issue?

   Thanks

    What URL do you want WP to be? domain.com or domain.com/german-car-repair-roswell-ga ?

    domain.com/german-car-repair-roswell-ga

    Okay :) Then you followed the wrong directions

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress#Moving_WordPress_Within_Your_Site is what you should have done (the only you followed was to move WP to a subfolder, but have the URL be domain.com)

    so.... your main wordpress index.php should be in that incredibly long name folder, which it sounds like it is

    The index.php should be original, unedited. It does not need to point to ./german-car-repair-roswell-ga/wp-blog-header.php. Reason being, it is looking for a folder named german-car-repair-roswell-ga inside of the german-car-repair-roswell-ga folder.... because it is already in the german-car-repair-roswell-ga folder.... does that make sense? IT should just point to ./wp-blog-header.php

    and both URLs in general settings (or in your database if you have to manually do it) should reflect domain.com/german-car-repair-roswell-ga
