Hello, i installed simpleT and am unable to get thumbnails (i just get a link to the page). i have tried to do above instructions and nothing has worked, though i can’t completely understand them all.

I would be grateful for any sort of simple explanation.

Hello, i know i am rather persistent but am very confused as to what is going wrong.

i am now trying to install WordPress. i can’t even get that to work. Following instructions to the word. i have checked and rechecked all the install.php passwords, name of database etc. and cannot get that to work.

i have FTP’ed everything in and go to put in the install path and get : Warning: main(/home/.sites/104/site97/web/wordpress/wp-includes/pluggable-functions.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/.sites/104/site97/web/wordpress/wp-settings.php on line 182

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required ‘/home/.sites/104/site97/web/wordpress/wp-includes/pluggable-functions.php’ (include_path=”) in /home/.sites/104/site97/web/wordpress/wp-settings.php on line 182

i am not sure what this means though i have tried to think about it.

i have been through most of the threads and realise that there is a protocol for posting etc, but really am stuck at what i am doing wrong, i downloaded the wordpress files again and put in the approriate files into it and uploaded but am still getting the same old message when trying to get to the upgrade.php

Warning: main(/home/.sites/104/site97/web/wordpress/wp-includes/pluggable-functions.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/.sites/104/site97/web/wordpress/wp-settings.php on line 121

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required ‘/home/.sites/104/site97/web/wordpress/wp-includes/pluggable-functions.php’ (include_path=”) in /home/.sites/104/site97/web/wordpress/wp-settings.php on line

is it possible to start over again with wordpress and retrieve the old database?

i keep trying different things, and have read the instructions many times, the message i am getting at the moment is Warning: main(/home/.sites/104/site97/web/wordpress/wp-includes/pluggable-functions.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/.sites/104/site97/web/wordpress/wp-settings.php on line 121

i am not sure what this means, i suppose a Saturday evening might not be the best evening to find out.

i tried to reinstall my old wordpress but no luck there either, would i be better just starting again? would i be able to get my archives up that way.

Thanks, any help would be appreciated.

still not getting anything for that upgrade file.

the message i get when i search for my blog at the moment is

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: update_user_cache() in /home/.sites/104/site97/web/wordpress/wp-settings.php on line 72

i apologise i can see it….

No i cannot, i may have further messed things up as i tried to put back the original wordpress file, and that no longer seemed to work…i am now putting up the amended one but it does not seem to contain wp-db.php

i think i have totally messed it all up…not really sure where i am.

thanks both of you for your help. i followed the tutorial and changed the url settings in the php set up. yay. i shall now do a lot of reading before i venture too far again….

holy cow. will check it out. thanks

to a certain degree i started again and got another copy of wordpress in. the domain name changed to the straight up address rather than having ‘web hosting’ in the middle of it. so would this be a change of domain name?

i can’t get into options it says requested url not available…
