Fatal error upon logging in after install

    Greetings.

    I have made several attempts to install a new wordpress distribution on an account. We didn’t get farther than the first page until we added more memory allotment to php.

    Now, there is a new problem- I can’t get past the admin login. I have cleared the database and site and reuploaded wordpress with forced ascii, and problem remains.

    After filling out wp-config.php and entering the initial info for admin user, I get these php errors and nothing else when I log in-

    Warning: require_once(./wp-load.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in ./admin.php on line 30

    Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘./wp-load.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php’) in ./admin.php on line 30

    Is there any advice you can give me?

    Thanks tons for your help.

    Recheck if you have uploaded all files and folders that are in wordpress folder when you unzip.

    Try and upload on Auto

    Thanks for the lightning response! I reuploaded with FileZilla set on auto, wiped the database and set up again via wp-config.php. Unfortunately I get the same result, with the same error message.

    Thanks again, open to any other suggestions.

    In admin.php, at line 30, where it’s not finding wp-load.php, the code is this:

    require_once(dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . '/wp-load.php');

    I added this line to admin.php, just above that line:

    echo "file var is " . dirname(dirname(__FILE__));

    The result was- .

    But, wp-load.php is at the top level of the distribution, so wouldn’t it be .. or ABSPATH?

    Hope this helps, many thanks.

    Whoa- I just changed line 30 in admin.php from:

    require_once(dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . '/wp-load.php');

    to

    require_once('../wp-load.php')

    and my dashboard comes up very nicely. Does anyone see a problem down the road with me doing this?

    Clicking on various links around the dashboard, I haven’t found a problem so far. I’ll report if I do.
