   it that your WP site is in the root of your site), otherwise it is [http://www.yoursite.com/wordpressfolder/wp-admin](http://www.yoursite.com/wordpressfolder/wp-admin)

   it takes me to [http://www.mysite.com/?step=2/wp-login.php?redirect_to=](http://www.mysite.com/?step=2/wp-login.php?redirect_to=)

 * I finally found a way to make mine work. I go to [http://www.mysite.com/wp-login.php](http://www.mysite.com/wp-login.php)
   and it takes me to the log in page.
