    Hello good people,

    I just bought a new domain and added it to my hosting as an addon domain. The setup is as follows.

    primarydomain.com.au
    addondomain.com.au

    addon files are stored at;

    primarydomain.com.au/addondomain

    I extracted wordpress zip file to the addon subdirectory and went to the addondomain.com.au to install. I follow the installer to set up the SQL database. When it says that that is done and it is ready to run the installer, I then get directed back to the beginning of the SQL database setup.

    I then find that the config.php was created on primarydomain.com.au, not addondomain.com.au.

    How can I tell the installer itself to use the addon domain instead of the primary domain?
