 * I have just uploaded wordpress to my server. On the ftp it’s definitely there…
   But when I try to access any wordpress PHP files, including the install file,
   it comes up with an error:
 * [http://www.beijingwineclub.com/foodwine/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.beijingwineclub.com/foodwine/wp-admin/install.php)
 * The system cannot find the path specified.
 * However it lets me access non-php files:
 * [http://www.beijingwineclub.com/foodwine/readme.html](http://www.beijingwineclub.com/foodwine/readme.html)
 * I thought it might be something to do with permissions but my ftp server doesn’t
   recognise CHMOD for some reason and the permissions appear to be the same as 
   those for other files which i can definitely access.
 * Any suggestions?
 * Thanks

 * Hi dazsnow.
 * I looked for a solution to the same problem you have.
    It’s sad to see a question
   answered a long time ago where no one has cared to answer. So I actually registered
   just to give you a solution that worked for me. Even though you have probably
   already solved the problem yourself or moved on.
 * Anyhow, what I did was to edit the config-file and used the url to mysql supplied
   by my web hotel. Localhost does not work for me!
 * After that change everything worked for me.
 * Kind regards — Daniel
