# install.php error

 * [17 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installphp-error-2/)
 * **I am trying to install WordPress. I have uploaded all the files to the website
   and modified the wp-config.php file as follows:**
    <?php // ** MySQL settings**//
   define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘henleyandbrown_pn’); // The name of the database define(‘DB_USER’,‘
   henleyandbrown’); // Your MySQL username define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘ce380e20e7e2014e’);//…
   and password define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘rumpus’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change
   this value define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’); define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);
 * // Change each KEY to a different unique phrase. You won’t have to remember the
   phrases later,
    // so make them long and complicated. You can visit [http://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/](http://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/)//
   to get keys generated for you, or just make something up. Each key should have
   a different phrase. define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ‘spud widget and percy are the jack pack’);//
   Change this to a unique phrase. define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘o to be in england
   our homeland’); // Change this to a unique phrase. define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘id
   rather be drinking real ale’); // Change this to a unique phrase.
 * // You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique
   prefix
    $table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!
 * // Change this to localize WordPress. A corresponding MO file for the
    // chosen
   language must be installed to wp-content/languages. // For example, install de.
   mo to wp-content/languages and set WPLANG to ‘de’ // to enable German language
   support. define (‘WPLANG’, ”);
 * /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */
 * if ( !defined(‘ABSPATH’) )
    define(‘ABSPATH’, dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/’); require_once(
   ABSPATH . ‘wp-settings.php’); ?>
 * **The information I have been given by my ISP is as follows:**
    MySQL Host: rumpus
   Username: henleyandbrown Password: ce380e20e7e2014e DB Name: henleyandbrown_pn
 * **When i try to open install.php in my browser I get a message box that gives
   me the option of “Open”, “Save” or “Cancel”. If I click on “Open” I get multiple
   copies (last time I counted 43 !) of the following page open in my browser:
    
   file://localhost/G:/Opera/profile/cache4/temporary_download/install[1]%20(4).
   php My default browser is Opera but I have tried this in Internet Explorer as
   well. Any suggestions and help would be welcome.

 * If the browser is trying to download the php file, php is not turned on or is
   configured incorrectly –
