    I’m not really trying to be difficult but I did everything you told me to the best of may (apparently lacking) ability. I renamed the twentyten theme everything but “Fred”. I’ve downloaded 3.0.1 four times now. I’m still getting a blank admin screen. I had so much trouble getting WP installed on my site and now that it’s there, I can’t do anything with it. Arghhh!

    Thanks, James.
    Unfortunately, I tried both your suggestions with out luck. The option_value field under active_plugins was already a:0:{}.
    Through my Cpanel, I renamed the folder “plugins.hold” and created a new folder named “plugins.” But I ran a crupper when I tried to login to the Word Press Administrative menus. I typed in http://domain-name.com/wp-admin and got the blank page again. Is there some other place where I am supposed to login to the WordPress Administrative menus?

    May I piggy-back on this thread?
    I need help. I am using Microsoft 7. I have a domain name, hosting with ChrisFarrellHosting and I developed a three page website using KomPoZer that I uploaded using Filezilla. So far so good. I downloaded WordPress from WordPress.org and updated to the latest version. I went to my Cpanel and used Fantastico Deluxe to install my WordPress template to my website. I used Filezilla to install all the WordPress files. I received an email from the hosting company (in fact, I’ve received two such emails for two different attempts) informing me that WordPress has been installed on my site. But when I go to my site, I see the page I originally uploaded to http://for-boomers.com/index.html instead of the WordPress theme. I’ve been working on this for several days and still get the same result. I even deleted the two previous installations in Fantastico in order to try again.

    All the tutorials make it sound so easy to download and install WordPress but nobody ever says what to do if it doesn’t work. I’ve got so I’m even doing this in my sleep – it does not make for a restful night. Help!
