 * sculpinto,
 * During the installation you don’t need to modify wp-sample-config.php file. You
   need to rename it on your local computer to wp-config.php file and upload it 
   to server along with the sample. Set write (777) permissions for wp-config.php
   and then access your wordpress. You’ll see installation wizard, just follow the
   instructions on the screen. Once installed change permissions of wp-config.php
   back to 644 (or 444).

 * recheck your wp-config.php and see if you have right database information and
   check with your host if you need to use for database host if it is other then
   localhost

 * Yea, that was my mistake today, sorry. wp-config.php will be created automatically
   by wordpress during the installation process, or you need to upload it with correct
   database info and continue the installation.

 * yes, i have uploaded it and after I tried to open my website, then it said again
   the wp-config.php file was missing…I pressed continue and it takes mi to a place
   where i put the data…I did it and the last page it shows me is that wordpress
   couldn’t create the file but gives me the script to copy and paste it on a wordpad
   document then name it wp-config and upload it… when i do this it says, I’m sorry
   i need a file wp-config-sample.php to work with…

 * Start biggining delete wp-config.php and upload wp-config-sample.php and just
   go to your install url
 * domainname/wp-admin/install.php and see if your install script opens and tells
   you to create a wp-config.php file just follow instruction on program.
