    Look for filosofo old style upload. It works very well (except in OS X Leopard).

    HandySolo and LesBessant, You were spot on about the general options page. That’s where the install script populated those two fields with the IP address of my server. Replacing the IP address with the URL did the trick.

    Thanks again.

    Gentlemen, I suspect you are correct about the general options setting, I am anxious to see what it is when I get home.

    It looks like the install script for the new version may have populated those two fields differently than the previous install scripts did.

    Will either have a closure for this or some more information for troubleshooting in about 3 hours. Thanks again.

    HandySolo, intimately familiar with private IP address schemes. I’m looking for someone who may know what’s different with the new WP install. The two existing instances of WP on the very same machine are working perfectly. Those two copies of WP do not try to direct http requests to my server’s private IP address. It’s the new install of WP that is doing that.

    Further, some pages of that new copy of WP are accessable from the internet. The ones named above. Try one at:

    http://www.ohlssons.be/vegan/wp-admin/install.php

    You will see my server respond and you will get the “Already Installed” message from WP. This makes it plain that the network is, as I said earlier, not the problem. Further, there are no database errors. This new blog communicates perfectly with the database I created for it in mysql.

    You can see my perfectly functioning WP blogs on the same machine at:

    http://www.ohlssons.be/blog/

    and

    http://www.ohlssons.be/adoption/

    What is different is how this copy of WP is directing http requests. At no point in the install did I specify what the IP address of my machine was.

    A puzzler.

    LesBessant,

    I can’t load my general options page from where I am to answer your question, but I’ll put that up as soon as I get home.

    Thanks.
