Sounds like PHP isn’t switched on or isn’t configured properly.
Put this in a text file:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
Save as info.php
Upload it to your site’s root – then access it in your browser.
If PHP is on it will show all of the config parameters.
Hi thanks for you response but it still startsd up in dreamweaver. Any other options please.
Most appreaciated.
Thanks
Make sure you’re actually serving the php file. You can’t just use File –> Open. You have to visit it through your browser so the PHP runs. Type in the actual URL where it is located.
Hi skoochie, can you give me an example of what to type in the url please. I thought this would be the same as gile open as in the instructions. Thanks for your help
Do you actually, have a domain and a hosting package for your blog?
Is the database set up at your host server?
Are the WP files uploaded (via FTP) to that server?
Are you trying to access your installation in your browser like:
http://example.com/wp-admin/install.php ? (where, of course, example.com is replaced by your own domain name)
