 * Hi everyone,
 * I uploaded all the files the way I was supposed to and also already entered my
   database access data.
    When I want to go to wp-admin/install.php now, the following
   error occurs:
 * Warning: main(upgrade-functions.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: 
   No such file or directory in /home/www/web544/html/blog/wp-admin/install.php 
   on line 9
 * Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘upgrade-functions.
   php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/share/php’) in /home/www/web544/html/blog/wp-admin/
   install.php on line 9
 * Do you have any suggestions what I did wrong or what I have to do to fix this
   probelm?
 * Thank you in advance for your help.
 * Soykster

 * This has been going on for some time now. I have experienced it myself. Some 
   folk suggest that there is an error in config.php. If you are using the old one
   try editing the new one (the actual file in the download) or vice versa. In my
   case I switched to the svn and it cleared.

 * Just tried to install the latest version of WordPress and had similar problems–
   blank page when trying to run the install.php file. Pulled an old config file
   from abnother domain and changed the db name etc. Works fine now. There is a 
   problem with the config.php file in the current WordPress download (v.2.2.1).
   Use an old config file.

 * [@enquirer32](https://wordpress.org/support/users/enquirer32/). That seems spot
   on. A lot of people have experienced this and the config fix seems to work. Thanks.
