    Hello,

    This is my first time using WordPress, so this is probably a simple problem!

    Managed to install WordPress on a server (streamline.net), I’ve created a theme and installed that too. The frontend of the site is working fine (http://www.donhoubicycles.com), but when I go to /wp-admin I get the following error…

    Warning: require_once(/home/fhlinux010/d/donhoubicycles.com/user/htdocs/wp-admin/wp-load.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/fhlinux010/d/donhoubicycles.com/user/htdocs/wp-admin/wp-blog-header.php on line 12

    Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/home/fhlinux010/d/donhoubicycles.com/user/htdocs/wp-admin/wp-load.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/share/pear-php5′) in /home/fhlinux010/d/donhoubicycles.com/user/htdocs/wp-admin/wp-blog-header.php on line 12

    I’ve checked line 12 of the file, it’s for wp-load.php which exists on the server, but not in the /wp-admin/ directory. Is this a fault with wordpress? Or have I dont something wrong somewhere? Weird thing is I can still access admin through sub pages such as /wp-admin/edit.php

    Any help appreciated!

    I think I’ve solved this myself by simple moving wp-load.php into the admin directory…

    But I’d still be interested to know why it wasn’t there to start with! Any ideas?

    Because it doesn’t belong there.

    in /home/fhlinux010/d/donhoubicycles.com/user/htdocs/wp-admin/wp-blog-header.php on line 12

    that file should not be in the wp-admin directory either, and is probably what caused your problem..

    My suggestion would be to delete all the WordPress files and re-upload them, it sounds like something may have become corrupt in the transfer of your files.

    Bizarre…

    Ok thanks, think I’ll go for the re-install!
    Had some problems with the initial upload, streamline.net has the worst FTP connection I’ve ever used, it took a few hours and kept dropping out, fingers crossed it’ll be a bit smoother this time round!

    Thanks for the help 🙂
