In reply to: browser can’t find wp-admin dir to run install.phpBingo! That’s the problem.
Thanks for the help!
As usual, it’s obvious once you know the problem.
I’m now getting an error from the install script, but that’s certainly a different problem, which I’ll work on for awhile before I bug you about it.
thanx,

In reply to: browser can’t find wp-admin dir to run install.phpOkay, I asked the Laughingsquid guys and they said:

This file indeed exists. It is the one here:
http://mralancooper.comIt says ‘your website is ready…’ You’ll just need to delete or rename that index.html file so the WordPress’ index.php file can serve by default.
The file is located here:
/www.mralancooper.com/web/content/
—————
So I went to the web/content dir and renamed the index.html file. Unfortunately, I still get the identical 404 when I try to run the WP install script. However, if I try to view “www.mralancooper.com”, I no longer get the contents of the index.html file; instead it gives me a “Forbidden” 403 error.Progress, but not success.

In reply to: browser can’t find wp-admin dir to run install.phpThere was an “index.php” file in the root, but I had already renamed it to “xxxindex.php” and that didn’t help. I can’t find any index.html files there.
I own two domains under one account at Laughingsquid, so the root (“\”) owns two folders (“www.otherdomain.com” and “www.mralancooper.com”). I’ve been assuming that “the root” in the installation instructions refers to the folder named “www.mralancooper.com”. Is that correct? That’s where all of the WP files are.
Thanks for your help!
