Thanks, KayNine, but I fixed the error.
My WP install was not in the root directory, as it assumed, so the required file could be found in /wordpress/wp-admin/post.php. I only just had to change the address bar URL.
I guess this was because of what the WP setup did in the Step 2 of the install, where it tries to guess the WP location itself, but asks you neverthless if it is correct. I just went with the default, which was my server-root. Maybe that’s what the problem was.
Once I logged in, I changed the paths appropriately in the options, and everything’s fine. Thanks a heap.
I am having the same problem. WP installed correctly (all three steps), and then presented me with the login prompt. When I click on login, it gives me a “404 Not Found”:
The requested URL /wp-admin/post.php was not found on this server.
I checked again to make sure that the file exists, and it is lying in that exact same folder, looking good.
Any idea what the problem is? How do I fix it?
