    You cannot just change those values to anything you like. They have real meaning.

    If you wanted to move the site to the /blog subdirectory, then you took the first step. Now, go to your site and actually move all the files into the /blog subdirectory.

    If you did not want to move the site into the /blog subdirectory, then you sorta messed up. You can change those values back by following these instructions: http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/site-url/

    Hey there

    I just installed WP 2.3 into my root directory where I want it to be.

    However I changed the site and blog url to be http://www.try-streaming-video.com

    When you try to view the web site it does not find it.

    Okay in problem solving this the WordPress url can be set to http://www.try-streaming-video.com with no issues.

    But the blog address url does not like the above address it has to be set to http://w3.try-streaming-video.com or otherwise no one can access the web site, eventually comes back with a blank page in IE saying done.

    Is this a server issue or WP issue.
    Many thanks

    He also gave the link to the tutorial to fix it.
    Another solution is:

    Nice reply thanks - has no bearing on the issue as http://www.try-streaming-video.com is the actual address of the web site and w3.try-streaming-video.com is coming from the server once WP was installed.

    Your link is meanlingless to this conversation as I can still get into my Admin section
