 * I have MYSQL Server 5.5 installed and PHP 5 installed on a Windows Server 2003
   SP2.
 * I previously had a database set up for and existing wordpress site and was trying
   to set up a **second site**. I created a new database and new user and granted
   privileges to that user. I then entered in the information the wordpress “config.
   php” file as requested and continued to set up the new site.
 * When I went the the appropriate url (rembaproject.com/wp-admin/install.php) it
   tells me that wordpress is already installed and to reinstall it, I need to clear
   my tables. Now whenever I go to my url, it automatically sends me to my other
   website, which is picoink.com. I am not sure how it got set up so that when I
   got to what is supposed to be my new website, it sends me to the website that
   was already there. I think somehow the new URL was added into my existing database
   and now it send it there, but I don’t know how to fix it.
 * Any suggestions????? Please help!!!!!!!

 * Check the settings in your wp-config.php file. You’re pointing to the wrong database.

 * I’ve double, triple, quadruple checked that. Trust me. I’ve deleted the new database,
   recreated it again, deleted the wp_config file and started from scratch again,
   tried changing thr prefix in the wp_config file to wp1_. I’ve done all the steps
   I can think of. Checked the privileges, flushed privileges, deleted and readded
   user, changed names, everything.
