[resolved] not able to access wp admin panel after install on second domain (3 posts)

    I'm totally clueless - Help is greatly appreciated!

    Here's the situation:
    I have hosting via bluehost and have my "primary" domain setup with wordpress already (we'll call that http://www.my1stdomain.com). This is just a personal blog and is totally separate from the main issue right now.
    I just registered a second domain under the same hosting account as an "add-on" - we'll call this http://www.my2nddomain.com.

    I'm a photographer and want the landing page to be my "splash" page, allowing clients to click on two options - to view my portfolio, gallery, etc (which I want on http://www.my2nddomain.com, probably eventually as flash based) and to click on a link to my blog, which I want to be on http://www.my2nddomain.com/blog.

    Here's what I did - I *think* I installed wordpress in http://www.my2nddomain.com/blog - when I go to the cPanel file manager, all of the correct folders are there. But, when I go to the admin login page, I get a blank page and I get a an automatic download of a blank page titled "wp-admin'.

    What in the world did I do wrong???

    Well, I got the blog install to work - now I just need to get everything else sorted out!

    I think I have the same problem. My first blog (domain) works but my second blog(add on domain) installs and when I create a new "site" (subdomain) it shows that it was created in the superadmin but the links to that site and wp-admin go to nothing, although when I hover over the link, it shows the correct URL. I thought it was that I couldn't use the wildcard * on any addon domains but I'm not so sure because I installed it on a completely different host (as the "1st blog") with the same results. Dont know if the multiuse is still buggy.
