I just transfered my blog domain name and server to another domain registar and host.
After transfer being successful, I proceeded to install the WP v2.6 to my domain root. Installation was successful and I FTPed my back-up files from the previous host to the new directory.
Although files were transfered - blog not functioning. So I deleted all files and uninstalled v2.6.
When I tried to install v2.6 on the same directory root, I got error message that I cannot install another script on the same root.
Can anyone help me resolved this issue?
Thanks.
and I FTPed my back-up files from the previous host to the new directory
What files? The theme, plugins, etc. or are you trying to get back your posts by copying files?

What I did was to FTP the folders, WP Admin, WP Content and WP Include. These were backed up from my blog at the previous host.
I basically want to get back all my previous posts.
You hopefully have a database backup from your old host as the database is where the posts, comments, pages, categories, tags, and users are kept.
