    Hello folks, I am not new to WP, but new to my very first WP installation.

    I spent over 10 hours for a 5 minutes installation last night. PHP5 couldn’t automatically talk to my MySQL which it’s been running with an ASP.NET application for more than a year. Finally I found out and got it right.

    There is an other problem now. System resolves stylesheet at “localhost” even for remote browser. I have been looking through wp-blog-header.php, wp-settings.php, functions.php, template-functions-general.php, themes.php with no prograss. OH MAN!

    Any ideas?
    Thank you folks!
    Love to be a WP user.

    Well, when I setup-ed WP for an IntraNet blog for my research Lab, this issue came.. I didnt have to traverse through the whole thing..

    Simply login to admin panel.
    Go to Options tab, and under the WordPress URL etc, change from http://localhost/your/wordpress/install
    to
    http://your.ip.address.here/your/wordpress/install

    in my case it was something like

    http://10.129.203.101/designdiscuss/

    hope this helps

    Hey Dragon, thank you for the quick response.

    You are the man. I actually didn’t think that is a resonable field to be there, so sort of skipped it. This possible problem should be stated on the interface. You think?

    I typed web root dir, in my case “/blog” into the URL filed instead of “URL” or IP, and it worked. Setting it to the root dir just make more sense to me. Should we propose to revise it for the next version?

    Thank you again, Dragon.

    Just hit the same problem, thanks for the posts they fixed it. I agree with pacifican, it would make more sense to default it to the web root dir during installation.
