Makes sense. Thanks for your help. After reading this I contacted the host, they helped me sort it out. It also turns out that since someone else signed up for the hosting, I had not received all the pertinent info I needed when I set it up, and was using the wrong url – not the temp one.
To anyone else with this problem: you MUST use a temporary URL in order to do this. Contact your hosting service for the appropriate temporary URL, and they will provide it. You will also need to ask them to send you the correct the settings, or ask them to reset them for you.The document is not applicable for this situation. The old site, http://www.nrbmlc.com is not a WordPress site – it’s just HTML. And it’s on a server totally unrelated, in a totally different location and organization. I simpy can’t access the WP login on the new host. When I go to the provided WordPress login, http://www.nrbmlc.com/wp-admin, all I get is an Error 404 page.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Can I begin to modify admin files while awating domain transfer?I have the same situation and problem. There is an existing domain for a web site that is on a completely different host, both of which will be entirely abandoned in favor of the entirely new site I am building on the new host, to which the existing domain name will ultimately be redirected. I am not putting in for a domain transfer until the new WordPress-based site is ready on the new host. I just installed WordPress on the new host, and it follows the current domain name redirects to the existing site. I cannot get into my new installation of WordPress on the new host to develop the new site – it only points to the current site, where there is no access to the new host and WordPress installation. FYI: I have less experience with this than Catherine_B. Can you help apljdi, or anyone else?
