    I'm attempting to install WordPress version 2.01 on 1and1. I've installed ver. 1.5 with no problem. When I go to http://avianflufiles.com/wp-install/wp-admin/install.php I get this error message:

    Here's my wp-config.php:

    define('DB_USER', 'dbo155479498'); // Your MySQL username
    define('DB_PASSWORD', 'XXXXXX'); // ...and password
    define('DB_HOST', 'db305.perfora.net'); // 99% chance you won't need to change this value

    The root directory on the website is:

    Destination As a home directory : /avianflufiles/index.php

    I'm at a loss. Can anyone help?

    Can you confirm that your database has been created? And are you using the MySQL database provided by 1&1 or an external host? If your webhost has CPanel access you can go and check on the database there.

    Regards

    I'm using MySQL provided by 1&1. The database has been created but I does not have any tables (I looked in phpMyAdmin).

    Hi,
    I have a couple of WP hosted by 1and1 and never got this error.
    You should not see the database name in the database table name !! This :
    Table 'db155479498.wp_options' doesn't exist

    is not correct;
    Can you access your database from phpmyadmin and check if everything is correct ? db created, possibility to create a table from phpmyadmin, etc...

    You can also try to create manually the tables from phpmyadmin using the script in the WP install folder (hum ... somewhere there)

    I am getting a similar issue. When installing I get the same errors about tables not existing then the message that 'Your database is out-of-date.'

    Thing is the tables would not exist as I am only just installing it

    I also have 1 and 1 and noticed that some of the files were being corrupted when being transferred simultaneously.
    thadhubbard, I know this sounds odd but can you please set your FTP client to only transfer one file at a time and try again.
    If you wish, before this look at the wp-settings file before and after transfer so see if they are the same. Again I know this sounds silly.
