Installation Problems with 2.8 – install.php file

  • I am extremely new to WordPress and I’m trying to install 2.8. I changed the config file and uploaded it. When I open the install.php file, I get a bunch of code-looking stuff, and this error (mixed in with all the other crap):

    ‘.__(‘Already Installed’).’

    ‘.__(‘You appear to have already installed WordPress. To reinstall please clear your old database tables first.’).’

    I have not already installed it and I checked the databases to clear them, just in case, but it said non existed.

    Please help me out! Thanks!

    I just looked around some more and realized that I get that error when I click the link from the ReadMe file, which pulls the link directly from my computer. If I type in https://www.mysite.com/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php (the location of the file), then I get this error:

    Warning: require(D:\Hosting\2542608\html\weedygiraffe\wordpress/wp-includes/functions.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in D:\Hosting\2542608\html\weedygiraffe\wordpress\wp-settings.php on line 247

    What does all of this mean? I’m so frustrated and know that WordPress is probably the best way for me to go, but I’m ready to just give up. It can’t possibly be this complicated, can it?
