Improper redirect after install.

Viewing 2 replies - 1 through 2 (of 2 total)

  • Hello,

    At the moment, I get a 404 error when I attempt to access https://www.stevenmbooth.com/wordpress so I am assuming that you went ahead and removed the wordpress installation.

    I would suggest cleaning out your account of all wordpress files, and attempt the install again. Instead of browsing to ‘www.stevenmbooth.com/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php’ after uploading the files, try browsing to ‘www.stevenmbooth.com/wordpress/’ instead as it should auto redirect you to the installation script. Run the installation and see if you still receiving the ‘501 error.’

    Also, you can always adjust your home and site urls through mysql/phpmyadmin to ‘https://stevenmbooth.com/wordpress/’ by running the following query:

    update wp_options set option_value = ‘https://stevenmbooth.com/wordpress/’ where option_name = ‘home’ or option_name = ’siteurl’;

    Let me know if you are still having difficulties.

    I’m having this exact same problem-

    I’ve run a new install of WordPress 2.8.2 as “testblog” at https://mySite/testblog/ using a wiped database named ‘test’. The database installs, the tables fill, and I progress as far as entering name, password and clicking Login. At this point, the WordPress Install Part Two falls out of bed by sending the browser location to https://mySite/?step=2/wp-login.php/. The Site URL parsed out ‘testblog’.

    My detailed thread is at UpGr to WP 2.8.1.: PHP is sending my browse loc outside my wordpress folder.
