However I can’t login myself with the name en password they give me. The browser can’t find the page, wathever I do. * Can somebody help me with this problem? * Regards, * Marina Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) * [krembo99](https://wordpress.org/support/users/krembo99/) * (@krembo99) * [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-problems-after-installation/#post-937932) * Please provide some link so We can check it. (and try to add /wordpress after your URL) * Thread Starter [mdebeukelaer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mdebeukelaer/) * (@mdebeukelaer) * [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-problems-after-installation/#post-937950) * Oke I forget to do that. [http://www.babyfotografie.org](http://www.babyfotografie.org) * I tried to add /wordpress behind it, /wp-login and some more but nothing seems to help. * Maybe it’s useful to say that my previous website I made it with html. Because I couldn’t see my homepage when I uploaded the wordpress files, I removed the index.php file from the server and left the index.html. Somehow de index.php overwrite the html index page. * But the problem for login in was already before I removed the index page. * Thanks for helping * Marina * [krembo99](https://wordpress.org/support/users/krembo99/) * (@krembo99) * [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-problems-after-installation/#post-937956) * No, now that I see the link itself, adding the trailing /wordpress will not help because the system is indeed installed in the root.. It seems like your server, either on the PHP or the SQL part is having some errors of parsing. The page ( or dirs) are found, but nothing is sent to the browser.. It would help if you will put index.php online for some time, tu see if the other part of parsing is working .. * [MichaelH](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michaelh/) * (@michaelh) * [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-problems-after-installation/#post-937959) * Also might make sure your host has PHP installed and operational for your account. * Make sure your host meets the requirements for WordPress: [http://wordpress.org/about/requirements/](http://wordpress.org/about/requirements/) * [theredgremlin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/theredgremlin/) * (@theredgremlin) * [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-problems-after-installation/#post-937976) * I’m having the same problems. My host said everything was set up correctly. The strange thing is that I have two sites. One works just fine and the other won’t allow me to login. Also, I get the cookies error message when I actually have cookies enabled. * [MichaelH](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michaelh/) * (@michaelh) * [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-problems-after-installation/#post-937984) * [@mdebeukelaer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mdebeukelaer/) – when I browse to [http://www.babyfotografie.org/wp-login.php](http://www.babyfotografie.org/wp-login.php) it wants to download wp-login.php which may mean PHP is not configured (correctly). I guess there’s also the possibility that not all WordPress files got uploaded correctly, so make sure you are using ASCII mode to upload those files via FTP. * [krembo99](https://wordpress.org/support/users/krembo99/) * (@krembo99) * [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-problems-after-installation/#post-938016) * My browser does not try to download the PHP files, but just shows an empty window, without any warning. no 404,405 or anything. This is why I also thought there is something wrong with her PHP or SQL Parsing. But the strange thing is, that the INSTALL script went through.. * [timoxa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/timoxa/) * (@timoxa) * [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-problems-after-installation/#post-938048) * I have same problem [http://www.juicytabs.com](http://www.juicytabs.com) after installation of WP I cant log in to wp-admin * Thread Starter [mdebeukelaer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mdebeukelaer/) * (@mdebeukelaer) * [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-problems-after-installation/#post-938082) * Hi Michael and the rest, * After I came back from my family’s holiday I read your advice. I indeed uploaded the files in a wrong mode; with Auto Mode. I overwrite them again with ASCI as you recommended, but it didn’t seems to work. At last I tried to deleted all the WP files and uploaded it again with ASCI. But the problem still stay’s. * Will I have to reïnstall everything over now? I don’t think so because the installation was succesfully said WP, so the problem is somewhere else. Is that a correct thought of a blond? * Regards, Marina Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) The topic ‘login problems after installation’ is closed to new replies. * In: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) * 9 replies * 5 participants * Last reply from: [mdebeukelaer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mdebeukelaer/) * Last activity: [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-problems-after-installation/#post-938082) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
