Sorry for the typos. Yes I get the lost password answer. this is where I get the on again off again service from WP. When it does recognize the e-mail address offered and sends me either a change password or capability which would work if I could enter the old password (which is what I’m looking for)and/or it sends me a new password. I copy and paste this new password and get the same old error message “wrong user name”. And it offers a new password if I supply an e-mail address. It just accepted the address but when I re-submit it, it says no such address is registered with WP. I know losing the log-in data was my fault but surely WP should have a secondary way of allowing me to identify myself and get on with my installation, other programs do.
I can log in to the cpanel but not the admin page. I used Fantastico for the “amazing 5 minute installation” which started on Wednesday and is now 5 days old and mounting. I got the host company to look up and send me the e-mail address in their file and they also suggested two log-in possibilities…neither worked, but the e-mail address seemed to work. So somewhere in some dark chamber which I don’t know where to find lies a WP generated password, but no user name which is like having the saddle but no horse. So do I delete (how?) and start over or what?

I’ve tried all leas and still am not able to come up with log-in details which WP accepts. So what is the best route now?
