 * Hello, I’m trying to help a friend that has tanked his site. I don’t have a lot
   of WP experience but I’ve had my eye on it for a while.
 * In attempting to login to the dashboard using the “wp-admin” extension, this 
   is all that we get:
 * Not Found
 * The requested URL /wp-admin was not found on this server.
    Apache/2.2.15 (CentOS)
   Server at (site).com Port 80
 * Does anyone know where I should begin looking. The htaccess file is blank. Should
   it be?

 * Are the files in the server?

 * Did you test **wp-login.php** : “[http://your-website.com/wp-login.php&#8221](http://your-website.com/wp-login.php&#8221);?
 * And are you sure your friend installed WordPress at the root directory of his
   website ?

 * Yes, the files are all in the root directory.
    No, I did not “test” the “wp-login.
   php” file. I do not know how to do that.
 * Yes, the files are on the server. I verified the files are there but did not 
   check the content of them.

 * Simply go to http://**replace-this-with-your-website-URL**/wp-login.php
