Title: Problem installingWP 3.1 mannually Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # Problem installingWP 3.1 mannually * [reazon1n1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reazon1n1/) * (@reazon1n1) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-installingwp-31-mannually/) * I had already created a thread related to this problem but it was closed.I’ve no idea why it was closed but i need an urgent help.here’s my problem: * I am hosting a website. My server is 000webhost.com and it’s hosting my website for free. * Apache ver. 2.2.13 (Unix) PHP version 5.2.* MySQL ver. 5.0.81-community phpMyAdmin 2.11.4 * ^^ these are the versions i’m using. * I’m a naive in all these things so I literally read each line and tried installing. Being a free user, I wasnt allowed to use Fantastico DeLuxe.So I tried installing WordPress 3.1 manually. I altered the wp-config.php file correctly and successfully uploaded all the file in the root directory i.e. inside public_html. However, when I try to install WordPress then i get the an error message that says something about the file wp-settings. * I even went through this thread: phpmyadmin 2.11: where are the user privileges?( 3 posts) in this forum. But it wasnt of any help. * Following the detailed WordPress instructions, I’ve got as far as creating a new database in MySQL and creating a new user in PhpMyAdmin: * > “Click the Home icon in the upper left […], then click Privileges.” * However, when I click on the Home icon in phpMyAdmin(version 2.11.4), I can’t see Privileges anywhere. I must be missing something really obvious, but I’d really appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction! * I tried doing all the setup correctly about 2-3 times but it was all futile. Can any 1 please help me?? How can I do it manually? Any ideas greatly welcomed.

Try to re-upload all the wordpress files without wp-config.php file. Re-create database, database username and password for it. Access wordpress and follow the installation guide. Use database server from your 000webhost dashboard instead of localhost. * Thread Starter [reazon1n1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reazon1n1/) * (@reazon1n1) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-installingwp-31-mannually/#post-1999997) * > Try to re-upload all the wordpress files without wp-config.php file. * without uploading the wp-config files how can i start the installation?? i tried doing this way too, but didnt work 🙁 🙁 🙁 * Moderator [t-p](https://wordpress.org/support/users/t-p/) * (@t-p) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-installingwp-31-mannually/#post-2000060) * try this [guide](http://wpcandy.com/teaches/how-to-install-wordpress?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+wpcandy+%28WPCandy+-+The+Best+of+WordPress%29). * [arkgroup](https://wordpress.org/support/users/arkgroup/) * (@arkgroup) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-installingwp-31-mannually/#post-2000072) * reazon1n1, * > without uploading the wp-config files how can i start the installation?? i > tried doing this way too, but didnt work 🙁 🙁 🙁 * Why it didn’t work? Have you received any error message? There’s no need to edit wp-config.php file manually, because wordpress is able to create it automatically, and I guess, it worked that way with 000webhost. * Thread Starter [reazon1n1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reazon1n1/) * (@reazon1n1) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-installingwp-31-mannually/#post-2000077) * **[@t-p](https://wordpress.org/support/users/t-p/)**: i tried following the guide and installed all again twice. But now o don’t get any error message. Instead i get a complete blank scree like this, here’s the link: [http://www.durlav.com.np/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.durlav.com.np/wp-admin/install.php) * **[@arkgroup](https://wordpress.org/support/users/arkgroup/):** the fantastico installer is currently not working with 000webhost, so i tried installing wordpress manually.
