 * I have not yet successfully installed WordPress since install.php does not display.
 * The only section that doesn’t correspond to the detailed instructions is that
   my database says NO Permissions and I cannot find a place that will allow me 
   to set permissions. The Plesk 7 instructions say that there will be a drop down
   menue but I am using Plesk 8.
 * PhpMyAdmin opens up to a screen that says there are no tables in the database.
   The Word Press installation instructions does not mention tables. Should I use
   the default as a guideline to set up tables? Can someone provide a link to further
   information on setting up tables?
    Or does this occur whenever I get the server
   to recognize install.php?

 * When it says no permission it’s talking about the user you’ve setup in your database
   doesn’t have permission to create the tables wordpress needs. If you’ve got phpmyadmin
   you can create the user and give appropriate permissions from there.
 * After you log into phpmyadmin click on privileges. Then click on edit user for
   the user you’ve created for wordpress. Then check the database specific privileges
   are set to all for the wordpress database.
 * Also make sure you check your wp-config.php file and set the database user name
   and password in that file.

 * If you have created the database in Plesk, and created the database user in Plesk,
   then the next thing you need to do is execute the WordPress installation process.
 * But based on your thread here, you must first get the WordPress files uploaded
   to your host first:

 * I talked to my host and I was told that I should use the httpdocs file as my 
   root file, which I have done.
 * I’m not sure how much confidence I have in the answer from the host since he 
   generally answers by telling me that they charge $250.00 for installing wordpress
   and subsequently trying to convince me that I am incapable of installing wordpress
   myselfdespite what the WordPress instructions say.
 * If I do not get a direct answer to my most resent question to the host server(
   pertaining to the memory setting for PHP), I will consider changing hosts to 
   one of the hosts reccommended by WordPress. I have ecommerce files installed 
   using a Storesense application installed on the host server. If one of the reccommended
   host servers is better for transferring ecommerce files, I would appreciate a
   reccomendation, especially if one of them also provides free installation of 
   OS Commerce or one of the other Open Source ecommerce solutions.
