Hi!
I followed all instructions to install wordpress, and it seems to be fine because all tables were created but the problem began when I typed the password given after the installation process. It didn't work!! The page changed for:
Could anyone tell me what's wrong?
Thanks!
Logging in using the username (admin) and the pw - yes, takes you to the "backend" of your WP installation, which is the wp-admin folder. Do you see the Dashboard there? Then you are OK.
Do you want to see the blog? Look around (for more than 1 minute) in your admin panel... Study it. Try it.

Hi
Thanks for you suggestions, but I can't see any Dashboard, when I type the password the URL is now:
http://... /wp-admin/
and the page shows something like this:
"You are not authorized to view this page"
"You might not have permission to view this directory ..."
And happens even if I reset the password.
Do you think that the reason of this problem is the installation?? But I have done it twice.

Please help!!
I really need this to work!
Thanks!!
It's a starnge message - can you see the folders/files via FTP? Are the permissions correct on the folder/files?
E.g. 755 for folders, 644 for files.

It's suppose that I have all permissions because I'm the administrator of the server where I installed WP.
My question is: What shuold I see after enter the password?
This is the link for the loging screen in my server:
http://dn.ccm.itesm.mx/egade/blog/wp-login.php
the user: admin
password: 4c5637b

http://dn.ccm.itesm.mx/egade/blog/wp-admin/options-general.php works ok... You may have a problem with recognizing index.php as the default index?
It's acting as if upon finishing the authorization (successfully) wp-login.php unceremoniously dumps you into the wp-admin/ directory and the server is refusing to default to index.php.
I think it's a server/host issue. Write them a note. (Unless you have a DirectoryIndex directive in some .htaccess file that doesn't include index.php).
Oh, and you should change the password now ;')
It's suppose that I have all permissions because I'm the administrator of the server where I installed WP.
Then you should learn how to administer a server before using it... For starters: your permissions and file permissions are two different things.
