I don’t see it. Did you install it in a subdirectory?
What error are you getting when you try to log in?
I installed it in the th httpdocs folder which is where the laughing squid intructions told me to install it. when i try to log in the a message comes up from laughing squid saying we wee unable to find the page
i am going to delete them and try it again
it still doesnt work, any ideas?
What foldername did you use for the blog folder?
Okay, if you go to http://totalcleanair.com/wordpress-2.7/ you get an error 403 (access denied).
Double check you uploaded ALL the files. I think you didn’t, since if I go to http://totalcleanair.com/wordpress-2.7/wp-admin I get a 404 (page not found).
In looking at your ISP’s FAQ, they mention this:
If you don’t upload a default page then visitors will receive a “403 Error > Forbidden” page when then go to your website. This is because for security reasons, directory listing is disabled by default on our servers. Once you upload your index.html page, they will no longer see this warning.
Thus I think you made the folder but didn’t upload everything yet 🙂
thelink ishttp://totalcleanair.com/wordpress-2.7/wordpress/wp-admin
try that one that is the one that goes to my host page
If I go there I see this as my URL:
http://totalcleanair.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Ftotalcleanair.com%2Fwordpress-2.7%2Fwordpress%2Fwp-admin%2F
BUT http://totalcleanair.com/wordpress-2.7/wordpress/ works!
So. Here’s what you did. You messed up your blog URLs 🙂 Your siteurl doesn’t match where things are stored, and your database is pointing to http://totalcleanair.com/ instead of http://totalcleanair.com/wordpress-2.7/wordpress/
See http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL
You’re going to need to edit this in your database and point your siteURL back to http://totalcleanair.com/wordpress-2.7/wordpress/
i reuploaded it taking the two folders out now it is
http://totalcleanair.com/wordpress/wp-admin
Your siteURL is still wrong.
If I view source on http://totalcleanair.com/wordpress, I see it calling CSS from http://totalcleanair.com/wp-content/themes/default/style.css
Basically WordPress thinks it’s in the root folder. You’re going to need to edit this in your database and point your siteURL to http://totalcleanair.com/wordpress/ NOT http://totalcleanair.com/
i can log in now
thank you.
