   be found (The requested URL /wordpress/wp-admin/ was not found on this server.)

 * Hey
    First you have to check the database connection Go to WP Options and replace
   your (Home and site) url with current domain url or directory.
 * Secondly you have to update permalinks

 * I got this error for about 30 minutes after install. I was installing WordPress
   on to a sub domain. If you have just bought your domain, it could take anywhere
   from 1-72 hours before you can do anything with your WordPress site.
