    Hi

    First post on here….

    Have managed to install WordPress on to a server with 1and1. I can log-in to WordPress but when I try and preview any pages all I get is a totally blank screen.

    I’ve tried to use the automatic install from the dashboard, but nothing seems to happen. All that does happen is the message “Downloading update from http://wordpress.org/wordpress-3.0.zip…”

    But the install goes no further.

    Any ideas? I have the default theme set at the moment and I’ve deactivated any plug-ins.

    Is there a better way to install the software other than copying up the files via FTP. I seem to get errors which makes me think the install isn’t spot-on.

    I noticed some people mentioning a service/software called ‘Fantastico’. Is this a paid-for application?

    Hi guys… this is bonkers. I thought I’d try re-uploading all the files again. Anyhoo… I copies up the base .php files, but not the folders. And the damn thing now works!!!!
