Actually, for some reaason, no matter what I click on, whether it be a post title or a sidebar menu item, I get “no input file specified” even though a few days ago thing were working fine.

http://www.(mysite).com/index.php/2007/12/01/picks-competition/

index.php keeps showing up in the URLs.

Kinda frustrating… Any thoughts?

OK, disregard all recent posts. I’ve just RESOLVED the issue and install is running!!!!!!!!

Thanks again

Now I’m getting the following (after re-uploading wp-admin from a downloaded WP):

Warning: main(C:\Domains\marketyngman.com\wwwroot/wp-includes/registration.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\Domains\marketyngman.com\wwwroot\wp-admin\includes\admin.php on line 17

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required ‘C:\Domains\marketyngman.com\wwwroot/wp-includes/registration.php’ (include_path=’.;c:\php4\pear’) in C:\Domains\marketyngman.com\wwwroot\wp-admin\includes\admin.php on line 17

Final question. I’ve fixed the DB connection (had to change from localhost as DB server was remote). Now, when I try to run install, I get the follwing message:

“It doesn’t look like you’ve installed WP yet. Try running install.php.”

When I run install.php, I get “Page cannot be found”. I have a feeling this is the last issue I’ll have to resolve before WP is up and running.

Many many thanks for your help!

Ok, if you’re still out there, I have another question for ya. The answer to my previous problem was as simple as turning on php (which was disabled by default).

Now I cannot seem to establish a connection with my DB even though I’ve made all necessary corrections to the wp-config.php file. The error page I’m getting says:

“Error establishing a database connection

This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host’s database server is down.

* Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
* Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
* Are you sure that the database server is running?”

I have the correct login info (username and password). I think the host name is typed correctly (will double check) and DB server is running.

I’ll check the forum for similar entries. If you have a quick thought on this, please let me know.

Again many thanks

OK, I did just that but still get the same message. Does that mean that wordpress is in the wrong folder? I know that the specific folder is the root folder because I have made numerous other sites using the same system but it could be that the file structure “confuses” WordPress..I dunno. Do you suggest creating a different folder and placing WordPress in there, and then changing URL? This has become quite frustrating for me as I’ve been trying to deal with it for the past couple of days.

Thanks for your help!
