I appreciate all the input that is given here and my patience is infinite, no problems there. I just hope my posts don’t get annoying to everyone else. 😛 The username is actually the administrator of the database, which I know could be a security flaw but I at least know the account has access to everything. I’ve used it on other databases I’ve set up, and it’s worked on all of those. It’s gotta be some weird problem where Windows bungles up usage of the config file or something. I’ll stop my guesstimations before I sound too dumb… * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Installing WordPress 1.0 on IIS](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installing-wordpress-1-0-on-iis/) * Thread Starter [patrickm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/patrickm/) * (@patrickm) * [22 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installing-wordpress-1-0-on-iis/#post-30728) * Thanks. Just downloaded the RC and tried to install and I’m still getting the same problem. Something is being very naughty. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Installing WordPress 1.0 on IIS](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installing-wordpress-1-0-on-iis/) * Thread Starter [patrickm](https://wordpress.org/support/users/patrickm/) * (@patrickm) * [22 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installing-wordpress-1-0-on-iis/#post-30725) * NuclearMoose- I am not upgrading from any other build of WordPress or from b2, it’s a clean install with no prior versions. But, I tried upgrade.php anyway just in case something different would happen and I’m still getting the error“ It doesn’t look like you’ve installed WP yet. Please run wp-admin/install.php”, which then leads me in circles again. tcervo- Thanks for the clarification. I’m hoping there is a way to get a fresh 1.0 version on without having to upgrade from any prior build. Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total)
