    Having some trouble getting the install script to run.

    I set up a DB, updated wp-config-sample.php to reflect the DB settings, changed the file name, and uploaded the lot to the public_html folder. Tried to run the install script at https://www.mydomain.com/wp-admin/install.php, but only get a non-WP 404 error page. If I navigate to https://www.mydomain.com, I do receive this error:

    Warning: main(): Unable to access ../wp-config.php in /home/username/public_html/admin.php on line 5

    Warning: main(../wp-config.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/username/public_html/admin.php on line 5

    Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required ‘../wp-config.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/username/public_html/admin.php on line 5

    Any ideas where I could’ve gone wrong?

    Hold on – I may have discovered the problem myself – will report back shortly…

    My bad – I have a fancy version of WinZip that is so fancy it disregards any file hierarchy and places all extracted files into the same folder. Corrected the problem and all appears to be fine.

    Feel free to delete this thread if you’d like.
