    Hi There,
    This is my first time here and I am a complete newbie at WordPress. I thought I had installed 2 WordPress blogs through my JustHost sever but now find I have these errors on the WordPress installation page.

    Warning: require_once(/home/yourdog2/.fantasticodata/WordPress/wp-load.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/yourdog2/.fantasticodata/WordPress/wp-blog-header.php on line 12

    Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/yourdog2/.fantasticodata/WordPress/wp-load.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/yourdog2/.fantasticodata/WordPress/wp-blog-header.php on line 12

    I emailed JustHost but they claim no responsiblitly to be able to help me!
    Could someone who is far more knowledgable than me, please explain what these messages mean and how I can fix them/not make the same mistake next time, please?
    Thank you for any and all assistance,
    Regards,
    Carol

    that is fairly ridiculous since it is their install script.

    looks like it is installed in the wrong directory - it should not be installed in the /.fantasticodata folder

    un-install the blogs with fantastico
    then run the install again putting the blog(s) in the public_html or htdocs folder (or whatever the root is - ask host if need be) or a folder you create inside the root.
