Wow.
I’m an idiot.
PHP wasn’t installed.
Until now….

It’s finally working:

Thanks everybody, you’ve been great!!

I found a page that shows me how to gather server info to help people isolate problems in these forums.

Very helpful…
Cept it doesn’t work either.
It requires you to make a php file and upload it.
the uploading part gets screwed up.
So the problem is actually the transfer of php files to the server from my computer.
I was wrong, my FTP client isn’t working properly after all.
No idea why.
ideas anyone?
EDIT: I’m using a wireless network to access the internet. Could firewalls and whatnot screw around with filezilla??

ASCII?
How would I be able to check if I did or not?
Permissions is also possible, but again, no idea how to determine right from wrong.
Thanks for all this help btw.

the license is also in the normal place. I just copied it to the admin folder to test.

Does this cause problems?

The uploaded files have the exact same structure as the local unzipped directory. Same number of files too.

I don’t think its either of those.
I uploaded the license file into the same place as the install file.

License works. Install doesn’t… same 404.
Filezilla is great, so it’s not the ftp client either.

yup.
I’m checking with the ISP right now about what mySQL version they installed. Does it make sense to create this kind of error if it’s less than version 4?
This is really frusterating.

Did the delete and upload again with filezilla this time. Same result.
