Problem with my site

  • I have set up 6 sites with word press now and I am working on setting up my 7th. The famous 5 minute install NEVER works for me. NOT ONCE in all the times I have done this does it work. I even waited two days before I tried to make sure the server was set up and the domain was working. NADA..

    I FTP the files up. I try the admin/install and NOPE..
    I open the Config file and enter all the information and NOPE..
    I double check the database, Yep. RELOAD.. NOPE FAIL..

    Its so frustrating. NEVER once has this worked for me.

    What am I missing? I follow all the instructions to the letter and write down EVERY user name and passowrd and Data Base name and triple check it all.

    NOPE.. FAIL..

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    I almost went to https://www.Example.com Then I realized you were talking about mydomain.com Tried that and I get a generic window from my ISP that suggests other pages that are similar to my domain. Like I was doing a web search. So I thought well maybe I need the Index.html file to be on there so I went back and uploaded a generic index.html file to see if that would work. It did not.

    I only know enough to make a real big mess. I do not know enough to fix anything.

    Thank you.

    We can keep beating on this, but frankly, I don’t think you have enough knowledge to get there. Go to meetup.com and see if there’s a WordPress meetup anywhere near you. Go to the meeting, find some folks you’re comfortable with, and see if one will sit down with you while you set up a new site.

    I am on Chat Support with my server people. They are going to install a fresh wordpress for me. That should work.

    This is how it always works for me.

    Thank you for trying to help.
