are you 110% sure? the error would suggest that you may have overlooked something.

Some hosts will prefix your account username before the db name you chose ie: acctname_dbname

Theres also a limit on the length a database name can be so if you typed something long some of the letters may have been cut off.

If after the above your still sure your db settings are correct, contact your host they can actually view your account so you will more than likely get a quicker response/resolution.

You probably could of found this yourself with a quick search of the codex for resetting password.

Make Backups.

Upgrade.

Change all passwords:
database username password
wp-admin passwords
ftp pass
cPanel pass
etc

Use the secret key.

place <?php show_subscription_checkbox(); ?> in comments.php after </form>

Which version are you trying to upgrade from?

What steps did you take to do the upgrade?

aha! Had me scratching my head. Glad you sorted it ??

Just to clarify:

apache/conf/httpd.conf

Find:
#LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

Remove the #

Find:
AllowOverride

Change to:
AllowOverride All

Save.

Restart Server.

Sounds like something in the .htaccess of your main url overriding your install on a sub directory.

Try temporarily renaming the .htaccess on your main site. Test the sub directory install again and then let us know what happens. (You will want to rename it back pretty quickly)

Im assuming this is a test version of WordPress and you don’t actually intend on using two versions of WordPress installed the way you have?

If it is you could do away with your second install and use a theme switcher plugin so you can test the new theme on the live site while everyone else see’s the current theme.

You can import the contents if you created an export of your posts before going head.

If you have backups try reinstalling it to it’s previous state on 2.3 and using one of the automatic upgrade plugins such as the Instant Upgrade Plugin. Or if you want to upgrade manually RTFM ??

Is there a .htaccess in the main WordPress directory?

Has WordPress been able to write to your .htaccess after modifying the permalink structure?

If you created it with fantastico then you probably want to uninstall with fantastico. Then navigate to the directory via ftp and make sure everything has actually been removed and also manually check the databases. If your sure you have completely removed all traces of your previous install but you still can’t install WordPress to that directory.

Try this:

1. login to your ftp
2. find folder .fantasticodata
3. find file installed_in_root.php and delete it.
4. find folder .fantastico/WordPress look for a file using the domain and delete it.

Try reinstalling WordPress.

Failing the above I would suggest you contact your host.

Minimalistic it is! Well pulled of only thing I would suggest is creating a larger space between ‘What’s New’ and the first post title and/or maybe increasing the font/weight/color so it’s easier to distinguish from the post title.

If the site in question is the one linked to in your profile open header.php search for:

<div class="logo"><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></div>

Replace with:

<div class="logo"><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/logo.gif" /></a></div>

The above assumes you uploaded your logo to wp-content/themes/themename/images/logo.gif

Whose your host?

Did you use some kind of auto installer (Fantastico, Simplescripts)?

Or did you upload the files & create a database manually?

If you havn’t allready then I suggest deleting the database and creating a new one & try again.
