intall problems

  • I have uploaded everything to my host and i modified wp-config.php
    When I open intall.php it says I don’t have that file and have already intalled WP, then it gives me a login link with no password.
    define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘Kioko_wordpress’); // The name of the database
    define(‘DB_USER’, ‘kioko_kioko’); // Your MySQL username
    define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘[password]’); // …and password
    define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘kioko_localhost’);
    I don’t know if I did this right. Is there something I did wrong that makes it not want to work?

    err…I made a lot of typos with that. I think i wrote intall for everything. I meant “install” sorry.

    A verbatim error message would be helpful in seeing what went wrong.
    I think the bit about log-in page with no password is normal, you just enter whichever password you want to start with.
    And one thing, you might actually need just ‘localhost’, instead of ‘kioko_localhost’. (I could be wrong here.)

    Anything other than ‘localhost’ would be required by the host, so if the host directed you to do that, then ‘kioko_localhost’ it is, otherwise just try it with ‘localhost’
    If it says that it looks like you have already installed WP, then go into your database and drop all the tables and re-run install again. Chrisada’s suggestion of the specific error message(s) is a good one.
