# New Installation – Server Doesn’t Process Index.php

 * I recently installed the newest version of WP. The 5 minute install creates my
   database structure along with a username. However, I get the site’s directory
   tree instead of going to the index.php page. I can type it in manually and it
   works, however. My WP files reside in a folder called wp off of the root directory.
   If I type [http://www.mysite.com/wp](http://www.mysite.com/wp) I get the directory
   tree. If I type [http://www.mysite.com/wp/Index.php](http://www.mysite.com/wp/Index.php)
   I go to my WP home page. Does anyone know how to fix this?

 * Ooops, I did not set my default browsing to index.php on my host server. Now 
   it works. 🙂
