# Admin shows store’s index

 * I’ve succeeded in installing wordpress on my laptop, but I can’t access the admin
   area. /admin.php shows a list of files starting with ‘parent company’. /index.
   php shows the index page ok. I’m wondering if this has anything to do with the
   permissions settings. The wp.admin folder is set to read_only and as I’m using
   windows I can’t do anything to change it.
 * I’ve also got problems accessing wordpress on my server. I was able to have wordpress
   blog installed from my control panel. It set up the database, and set the database
   name, username and password. When I try to access admin I get the following message
 * > Error establishing a database connection
   >  This either means that the username
   > and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t
   > contact the database server at [http://www.foldername.co.uk](http://www.foldername.co.uk).
   > This could mean your host’s database server is down.
 * /index.php shows a 500 error.
    I’ve sent an email to support and I’m waiting 
   for a reply. Meanwhile, does anyone know of anything I can do to get wordpress
   running properly?
