I’m also getting the same thing on a new blog I’m trying to set up!
I have the MySQL database set up (atleast I think I do), and edited my wp-config file accordingly. Everything uploaded successfully but when I go to run install.php, it’s just a blank page and it says “done”
Is there a log that I can refer to to see what is going on?
the link is here: http://www.indiarainbow.org/blog/wp-admin/install.php
All the files are in the blog folder on the ftp server
Same here – blank white page when I call the install script. I tried deleting everything and reuploading the entire package; didn’t help.
Okay, well my problem was once again my own – I forgot to put in my database password in wp-config.php
/sheepish
well I seem to have the same problem, but my wp-config.php file is correctly changed, I’ve double checked it now for about 8 times.
I get a blank screen on my ~/wp-admin/install.php
What else can i do wrong?
This is a first install on the server after using it on MAMP. I’ve downloaden a completely new version so it’s not affected.
// ** MySQL settings – You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘MYDBNAME’);
/** MySQL database username */
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘MYDBUSERNAME’);
/** MySQL database password */
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘MYCHOSENPASSWORD’);
/** MySQL hostname */
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’);
/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);
Please help!
@koekebakker are tying to move wordpress to host from Mamp if so check with your host if they localhost or some other setting.
No no. I tried it on MAMP so I would get familiar with it. This is now a completely new download and install.
ok still check with host what you need use as host as some host use different host
Solved, localhost was the prob. Thx.
@govpatel
Thanks… yes I was just going to come and post on here again…
What I ended up having to do was download WP 3.0.5 and use that. It seemed to get past the blank screen… maybe someone can try that and see if it helps!
I also had to bother my hosting company to get the real hosting address and changed that from localhost to whatever it was. That also helped get it installed 🙂
Thanks once again!
