  • Looks like you don’t even have a “/wordpress” directory.
    I know this sounds silly, ?? but check whether you placed “wordpress” folder in the right place, where it is accessible by webserver (your web root, “public_html”, “htdocs” or something like that).

    I also placed it in the HTML folder, trying of that works but than I have an ‘forbidden’ error. So I don’t know where I can place it? So what’s the right path to wp-admin/install.php?
    My folders on my webspace are cgi-bin, HTML, logs, subdomains, tmp for you info.

    P.s. what can I fil in the wp-config.php file for DB name, user etc? Is that the info from my hostingprovider, usersname and serverinfo? Maybe that’s the problem? I’m new by this provider.

    403 Forbidden is something new. You should ask your provider about that. At least files now are in the right place.

    You can fill wp-config.php manually, but this cannot be the cause of your problem. DB name, username and password you can get from your provider. Username and password might be the same as your FTP 9or whatever) login info, but not necessary. Anyway, this info comes from your provider.

    Umm.. Maybe.. You can try to chmod all WP directories to 666 (not that it’s safe, but it can solve the “forbidden” problem). That can be done easily using your FTP, SCP program or whatever you use.

    It works, I placed the wordpress folder in the wrong folder. My provider says place it in the HTML folder. Also DB host in wp-config.php was a wrong address.
