   http://stweb.ccv.edu/CIS-2430-VO01-V09SP/kca08110/wordpress/wp-config.php
   This is what I am working with. This host is from my school but supports a lot of php. I have even executed the file if that helps at all and the problem is that I can't even run a wp-config page. Feeling a little week in the skills right now, any advice on whats with the white space?
   Check this code out and tell me what I did wrong, maybe it will be in here:

   / ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
   /** The name of the database for WordPress */
   define('DB_NAME', 'luckyniji');
   
   /** MySQL database username */
   define('DB_USER', 'luckyniji');
   
   /** MySQL database password */
   define('DB_PASSWORD', 'xxxxx');
   
   /** MySQL hostname */
   define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
   
   /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
   define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
   
   /** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */
   define('DB_COLLATE', '');
   
   /**#@+
    * Authentication Unique Keys.
    *
    * Change these to different unique phrases!
    * You can generate these using the {@link https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/ WordPress.org secret-key service}
    *
    * @since 2.6.0
    */
   define('AUTH_KEY', 'Cathy');
   define('SECURE_AUTH_KEY', 'Murphy');
   define('LOGGED_IN_KEY', 'Richard');
   define('NONCE_KEY', 'Anderson');
   /**#@-*/
   
   /**
    * WordPress Database Table prefix.
    *
    * You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique
    * prefix. Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!
    */

   That is all I edited. Thanks -Niji

   Typically, a blank screen during install means you didn't get a complete and intact set of WordPress files uploaded to your host. I'd consider downloading a fresh copy of WordPress from the Download tab at the top of this page, then use something like 7-Zip to extract the files. Then reupload the files to your host. Review Uploading WordPress to a remote host and make sure you are using ASCII transfer mode in your FTP client.

   If you have an .htaccess file, that too could be causing the problem--rename that if necessary.

   I just wanted to post this up here in case any other newbies are having the same problem. In order to include the proper database name and such... you must have a database. [lol] That is all I have to say and I am walking away with my head held in shame [jk] Thanks for the 411 MichaelH.

   YOUR WP-CONFIG IS WRONG SEE.

   / ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
   /** The name of the database for WordPress */
   define('DB_NAME', 'luckyniji');
   
   /** MySQL database username */
   define('DB_USER', 'luckyniji');
   
   /** MySQL database password */
   define('DB_PASSWORD', 'xxxxx');
   
   /** MySQL hostname */
   define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
   
   /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
   define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
   
   /** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */
   define('DB_COLLATE', '');
   
   /**#@+
    * Authentication Unique Keys.
    *
    * Change these to different unique phrases!
    * You can generate these using the {@link https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/ WordPress.org secret-key service}
    *
    * @since 2.6.0
    */
   define('AUTH_KEY', 'Cathy');
   define('SECURE_AUTH_KEY', 'Murphy');
   define('LOGGED_IN_KEY', 'Richard');
   define('NONCE_KEY', 'Anderson');
   /**#@-*/
   
   /**
    * WordPress Database Table prefix.
    *
    * You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique
    * prefix. Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!
    */

   You can figure out your DB NAME AND YOUR DB USERNAME IS WRONG. DB_wordpress for databasename . DB_luckyniji for username. And also your Auth_Key ,Secure_Auth_key, Logged_IN_Key, NONCE_KEY is wrong. you can find auth key's from https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/ .
   And that's All.. After you have done with my steps.. your blog will be fine.
