 * Hello,
 * I host from a private web developer. He set up a new MySQL database for a new
   blog. I properly put in the wp-config.php information. When i tried to run the
   install script, //**myhostname**.com/wp-admin/install.php, it got the {an error
   occurred}.
 * Ideas on how to resolve this issue?

 * additional information:
 * I registered my domain with a 3rd party for cheap. It’s DNS was the default for
   the company (register.com) and i changed it to what i thought was the DNS for
   my host. Now i just get a 403 error, but thats just extra.
 * With the default IP, i got the directive error
